TALLIS AMOS GROUP TAKES ON BS MOWERS We are very pleased to announce that we have acquired the trade and assets of Bristol based professional turf dealer BS Mowers Limited, as part of John Deere s Dealer of Tomorrow strategy. BS Mowers is largely known for its expertise in the fine turf machinery industry throughout Avon, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and North Somerset. To provide continuity of sales and service to customers in the area, all the BS Mowers staff led by Bob Culverhouse have been retained and the dealership will continue to operate as a turf only outlet under the TAG banner from January 2018. The business existing trading area will remain largely unchanged as a result of the merger. I am delighted that the Tallis Amos Group has agreed to acquire our company and bring its combination of experience and expertise to this part of south-west England, says Bob Culverhouse. It will allow us to grow the business and continue delivering the best possible parts and service support to existing and new customers, across a wider range of products from John Deere and other leading brands. TAG was identified as one of London Stock Exchange s 1000 Companies to Inspire Britain in 2015. This annual report is a celebration of the UK s fastest-growing and most dynamic small and medium-sized businesses. As a strong family run business, we firmly believe the Tallis Amos Group is the right long-term partner for customers across its newly expanded sales area, says John Deere Limited division sales manager Joedy Ibbotson. The dealership has a long history with Deere, a great deal of experience and a reputation among its customers for consistently delivering the highest levels of after-sales support. Colin McIntyre Turf Director "By expanding our product territory and through offering an even greater depth of technical support, we aim to give our customers the most rewarding customer experience. 2

MYJOHNDEERE.COM - WHAT IS IT? Accessible via any internet-capable device, MyJohnDeere. com is a centrally located, secure management point or online hub, That holds information about your machines and operation. It is a highly effective management tool used by many successful businesses. The capabilities of the system are wide and in-depth and can give you real-time access to mapped machines, which allows you to monitor their progress both from a production and application perspective as well as monitoring servicing, maintenance and any possible machine error codes. MyJohnDeere.com can also organise any agronomic data that is fed from your GreenStar 2630 displays in the cab, collecting such information as field boundaries, yield and moisture data, application rates, work rates, fuel consumption and a whole host more detail. This data can be uploaded to MyJohnDeere. com either manually using a USB stick or, it can be transferred wirelessly on an automatic feed via Wireless Data Transfer (WDT). What s really exciting is that the system can also accept information from non-john Deere machines, which gives it total flexibility no matter what brands of equipment you run in your business. so you don t have to run John Deere equipment to utilise the system if you choose not to! The system has an internal Operations Centre which acts as a hub, giving you access to your chosen agronomists, advisors and of course your TAG dealer branch - service department. Through this connection, our service technicians can, with your permission automatically monitor servicing schedules for your fleet and if so required, can organise an automatic service call when prime-movers reach their required maintenance hours. Likewise, if a machine shows an error code, you can authorise our service department to deal with the issue promptly if it s an urgent issue. Your agronomists or advisors can also access the system - with your permission and review historic data when helping to assemble and input a future cropping and input programme If you need more information on how MyJohnDeere.com can help you and your business, ask our FarmSight specialists as listed below: Trevor Bolton 07973 543237 trevor.bolton@tallisamosgroup.co.uk Chris Bufton 07825 173130 chris.bufton@tallisamosgroup.co.uk Martin Philips 07815 102677 martin.philips@tallisamosgroup.co.uk 4

TELEMATICS IN THE WORKPLACE There are many new technologies on the market today and one terminology that is well used is JDLink. But what does it do? Essentially, JDLink is a telematics system that connects all makes and models of self-propelled equipment to the office using a mobile device. It uses the same cellular network that most of us use for our mobile phones. The data collected from the machine operating in the field is transmitted to the farm office computer and enables the computer operator to monitor progress of fieldwork, so that management of such things as logistical decisions can be made where such things as inputs of seed or fertiliser can be planned for a drop point to enable efficient uptime and minimal downtime. JDLink can also be set-up - with the customer s approval to feed data to our service department so we can monitor when service intervals are due. Many operators who use PowerGard extended warranty with a full maintenance programme don t need to worry about service planning, because with JDLink, we at TAG are fully aware of when the service interval is due and can arrange with the customer the most convenient time to carry out the service. Likewise, if an error code appears in the system, we at TAG are notified of it immediately and can make a decision if it needs to be handled immediately or if the error code is minor and can be handled at the next service interval. By benchmarking your machinery comparing it with other users, JDLink can help the operator to identify areas where improvements can be made leading to savings fuel and money. Why not try out JDLink on your machinery? Ask us for a demonstration to show you the potential savings and improved management decisions. Call us today on 01386 48600.
