At first glance, the shipping department seems straightforward; just packaging up motorcycle parts, throwing a label on a box, and calling it a day. Not at CPV. Our shippers are more than that, they are skilled inspectors of world-class motorcycle paint finishes. After a part has gone through the entire paint process, we take the time to double-check everything: color, layout, finish, and even the part itself gets thoroughly inspected for imperfections. It’s where precision and high attention to detail is your greatest strength. Before boxing up a part, I think about CPV’s reputation for quality and excellence, and how every part I send out represents that legacy.
One of my favorite things to do in the shipping department is validate the color-match of a part. This is a skill that takes time to learn and become proficient at. Color can be subjective, so I like to use a process I call “phoning a friend.” Which is when I ask a team member to double check the color. When it comes to paint color, we don’t mess around. What goes into making a captivating color is a complex process and many unpredictable variables can impact the end result. Paint color is where CPV has achieved a world-class reputation in paint finishes. One of our responsibilities is to hold a high standard on behalf of our customers. Color is our bread and butter, and getting it right is our specialty.
