Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• TIP has won a 23.5m contract with Ford Europe to supply and service 300 curtainskiers, to be specially designed and built by York Trailers. The deal reflects Ford's trend towards in-house transport, with the latest vehicles bringing Ford's trailer fleet to more than 900.

The trailers come on stream from this month and carry the Ford livery. They will move parts and engines between Ford plants in the UK, Germany and Belgium York has designed the trailers to handle side-loading of multiple pallets, with the lifting roof feature which gives extra clearance of 0.35m, while still complying with overall Euro pean trailer height rules. The TIP trailers also have rear aperture and frame modifications, which allow rear loading of a full load and eliminate pole deflection.
