Precision Vehicle Solutions Selected to Manage Finished Vehicle Logistics at Ford’s Kentucky Truck and Louisville Assembly Plants
Precision Vehicle Solutions (PVS) today announced it has been selected by Ford Motor Company to operate finished vehicle logistics at two of Ford’s most critical U.S. manufacturing facilities: the Kentucky Truck Plant (KTP) and the Louisville Assembly Plant (LAP). The selection represents a major expansion of Precision’s operational footprint and underscores Ford’s continued confidence in the company as a long-term partner for managing complex, high-volume outbound vehicle logistics.Kentucky Truck Plant is Ford’s largest manufacturing site in the United States and one of its most operationally demanding facilities worldwide.
Producing more than 460,000 trucks and SUVs annually, KTP operates at a high jobs-per-hour rate with multiple outbound transportation flows, making it one of the most challenging finished vehicle logistics environments in North America. Precision’s appointment reflects its disciplined execution model, scalable systems, and proven ability to manage complexity at scale.
With responsibility for finished vehicle logistics at both KTP and LAP, Precision now supports approximately 15 percent of all North American finished-vehicle production sites. The expansion also brings Precision’s operational coverage to nearly half of Ford and General Motors’ combined U.S. manufacturing footprint, reinforcing its position as a leading provider of outsourced finished vehicle logistics services.
This award brings meaningful job creation for our labor teams and provides long-term career opportunities for Precision employees,” said Matt Alber, Chief Executive Officer of Precision Vehicle Solutions. “It reinforces our commitment to employee development, comprehensive safety training, and operational excellence, while strengthening our partnership with Ford at some of its most important manufacturing sites.”
Vehicles produced at KTP are shipped to approximately 65 destinations across North America, primarily via rail and shuttle transportation. These movements account for roughly 93 percent of the plant’s total outbound volume. Under the new agreement, Precision will manage the full rail-and-shuttle logistics flow, including direct loading of vehicles onto railcars and coordination of shuttle transfers to regional railheads. The scope of work also includes yard management, outbound sequencing, and real-time coordination to ensure efficient throughput and delivery performance.
Safety will remain a central focus of Precision’s operations at KTP and LAP. The company will deploy its established Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) safety systems, standardized operating procedures, and data-driven monitoring tools to support incident prevention, workforce readiness, and continuous improvement. These measures will span yard operations, rail loading activities, and outbound vehicle movements, aligning with Ford’s rigorous safety and quality standards.
Operations at the Kentucky Truck Plant are commencing immediately, with Precision assuming responsibility for finished vehicle movements, yard operations, and outbound logistics coordination. The addition of KTP and LAP further strengthens Precision Vehicle Solutions’ reputation as a trusted partner for OEMs seeking reliable, scalable, and safety-focused finished vehicle logistics solutions in high-volume manufacturing environments.
