Managing a large fleet of vehicles is never going to be an easy task, even for the most organised person. It’s important to have an action plan so that you know your fleet will be well looked after. Here are some ideas:

• Outsource fleet management to a specialist company. They will know exactly what they are doing and their services will be worth every penny.
• Go to some specialist fleet services providers and get some quotes. Compare costs and what you will get for your money. Weigh this up against getting someone in house to do it for you. The downside is, a fleet management company may be more experienced.
• If you are interested in fleet management in house, make sure you have everything your staff need, like fuel cards and maintenance schedules. All vehicles need to be in perfect condition, completely road safe and legal and practical for your staff.
