Maximise every day and every vehicle
Downtime keeping you up at night? With the right approach – and the right support* – you can keep your vans and your business moving.
*That’s us, we’re happy to say.
Up your uptime with proactive fleet management
Off-road van repairs and unexpected holdups are a fact of business. But with a bit of smart planning, you can boost your uptime and, as a result, your productivity.
Proactive downtime planning
Telematics keep you in the know
Call on our experts for all things electrification. Whatever the size of your fleet and wherever you are on your electric journey, we’re here with practical advice, strategies and ongoing guidance. It’s our job to make EVs (and eLCVs) easy.
Hassle-free recovery and repairs
When downtime does happen, you can limit the impact. With us you get on-tap driver support and speedy solutions from partners who we’ve hand-picked for you.
LCV rentals to plug the gaps
Limiting downtime starts when we shape your lease. Build rental days into your contract, with your choice of vehicles, to save paperwork later on and have rentals good-to-go when you need.
Forward-thinking maintenance
Sounds obvious, but prevention is always better than cure. For your fleet, that means keeping on top of routine checks and repairs by planning ahead.
Prevent stoppage down the line
We’ll schedule in upcoming requirements for regular servicing, MOTs, calibrations and recalls.
Set reminders
You can also schedule works and add extra reminders in your Fleet Management Portal.
Ensure the highest standard
We’ll find you an expert garage to do the work – with only genuine parts and paints of course.
It’s systematic. It’s automatic. It’s telematics.
Another way to increase your uptime (and save up to 15% on fuel costs) is with telematics from our partners at Lightfoot. Their in-vehicle technology syncs with our Fleet Management Portal to give you invaluable oversight and data.
Monitor, track and manage
MPG data from petrol and diesel vehicles can highlight reductions in engine performance and inform drivers with real-time alerts.
Find savings in the data
Vehicle tracking lets you update customers with accurate delivery times, improve routing and optimise job allocation. And driver data helps you save on tyres, insurance and CO2 too.
Optimise vehicle use (think eLCVs)
Learn which drivers aren’t
maximising battery and range, and which vehicles to redeploy. If transitioning to electric, it will help you assign the right vehicle to the right job.
Upgrade security
Knowing where your vehicles are at all times makes unauthorised use easy to detect. Set geo-fencing alerts to alert you to any suspicious activity, instantly.
Protect your drivers
Driver behaviour data can be used to identify risks and improve driver safety. Crash detection ensures you’re quickly informed of incidents and helps minimise downtime.
Report with impact
Data on mileage, routes, driver behaviour, tyre wear and MPG gives you huge reporting possibilities. You can even create KPIs for your drivers and monitor their progress.
Unplanned downtime?
We’ve got a plan for that too.
When the inevitable hiccups and breakdowns do happen, here’s how you can limit downtime:
Recovery at the ready
- Rely on round-the-clock breakdown, accident and recovery support.
- Integrate vehicle telematics with Fleet Management Portal for real-time notifications on vehicle status and driver incidents (inc. impacts as low as 5mph).
- Inform your drivers to visit our 24/7 eDriverline online or call directly for accidents, recovery, repairs, and even to find their nearest charging point.
Repairs done right
- Know your driver and van are in the best hands. Our dedicated booking team’s experience means they can quickly arrange maintenance for your drivers, such as same-day servicing and repairs.
- Waste no time down the line. We match the garage to your needs to make sure they have the appropriate equipment and capabilities to complete the work.
Fast access to rental vans
Build rentals into your contract – we’ll add any vehicles for any number of days.
Rent at the drop of a hat, with no paperwork hassle or stalling down the line.
Choose from any make or model cars, LCVs or eLCVs.
Rent for any term – from a few hours to a whole month, or even years.
