Fleet Management
The primary objective of Fleet Management is to drive out cost and reduce the management and administrative burden of running a fleet of vehicles. Fleet Management is a combination of client specific services tailored, as required, to meet the needs of the client's own business.
The essential characteristic of Fleet Management is that it involves the management of assets and records, creation and management of a quality supplier support network and the processing of transactions and vehicle related events on behalf of the client. Usually the client will fund the asset, either directly or via a third party provider.
In summary the aim of Fleet Management is to provide cost and operationally effective mobility-related solutions for owner-driver organisations and their employees.
Our Approach
Leasedrive Velo has established industry leading processes, procedures and network management techniques to demonstrably reduce the cost of providing mobility solutions. The primary ethos of the business is that it thrives by providing a high quality of service to all its stakeholders - customers, drivers, suppliers and employees.
Investment has been made in an industry leading processing capability, which ensures that routine and manual tasks are mechanised wherever possible to enable Leasedrive Velo employees to focus on applying their knowledge to add real value to the customer.
A reputable network of tightly managed suppliers has been established that shares the same customer service ethics. Working in close partnership provides unparalleled service delivery.
The business relies on a team of knowledge-based employees who utilise their expertise in an advisory or consultancy capacity to provide the optimum solution for the customer. Preferring the consultative approach, Leasedrive Velo avoids employing any form of high-pressure sales techniques, instead we rely on facts and client testimonials to promote our products.
The business is completely transparent and operates a total and open disclosure policy as far as its income streams are concerned. Our Fleet Management revenue is derived in its entirety from our monthly management fees. Any indirect income such as rebates, are declared and either returned or offset against the management fees. This enables our business to act purely in the interests of the client from both a service and financial perspective. We believe total and open disclosure to be unique in our industry. The business and its employees are required to maintain the highest levels of integrity at all times.
