Here are 5 good reasons why you should consider using a Digital inspections and Vehicle valuation service your fleet.

  1. You need to update your fleet register and record the condition and usage of your fleet.

Accurate fleet registers are the foundation of fleet and financial / asset management activities and play a key role in replacement planning, vehicle relicensing, service scheduling, insurance management, utilisation and financial management.

  1. You need to prepare a fleet replacement plan including a Capex and Opex forecast.

A detailed fleet register identifies vehicles that exceed policy limits. Calculating the balance of useful life, with adjustments for condition and usage, facilitates the development of replacement plans and future Capex and Opex forecasting requirements.

  1. You have FML vehicles that are due for return

FML agreements have strict requirements for the return of a vehicle, Kms usage and condition. Identify the vehicle condition prior to return and use your own resources to contain these costs.

  1. Your company’s Health and Safety (HSE) policy requires a vehicle condition report.

Vehicle rental services have strict condition requirements which need constant management. Alternatively, as an insurer establishing the condition of a vehicle prior to insurance can avoid the costs of unjustified repairs.
