5 Tip To Help Your Fleet Today!

Fleet management is no straight forward task, yet there are a few small changes fleet operators can make that can return some big results. See the below top tips for running a more effective fleet, compiled by our team of fleet experts, and see if you can make a change for the better today.
  1. Stay in control of your data: It’s far too easy to lose control of the multiple streams of data that form the life blood of a fleet operation. From service and repairs scheduling to driver license checking, if the data is not centralized and easy to access and interpret, there’s little point having it in the first place
  2. Select the right tool for the job ...or more specifically, the right vehicle for the trip! It sounds simple but the continued allocation of inappropriate vehicles can quickly create unnecessary cost and CO2. Don’t send an eighteen wheeler when a hatch back will do!
  3. Know what you’re spending...and overspending: Operating a successful and cost effective fleet in today’s economic climate means keeping on top of your spending and identifying areas of waste in order to implement cost saving initiatives. This can be easier said than done if you’re relying upon spreadsheets instead of fleet management software to monitor your expenditure.
  4. Dot every I and cross every T: When it comes to compliance, the fleet management function is rife with legislation to adhere to. From duty of care to vehicle inspections, without an appropriate fleet program in place to provide alerts relating to pending compliance hazards and produce in depth reports at the click of a mouse, fleet operators risk the consequences of non compliance.
  5. Keep tabs on your carbon footprint: Being green isn’t just about saving the planet; it’s about cutting cost and increasing your appeal to customer and partner organizations too. Monitoring CO2 emissions and fuel consumption needn’t be a laborious task if a fleet management system is in place to do the leg work.
