Fleet and carrier mix optimisation

Putting the right fleet in place to serve your needs.

Getting the right fleet mix can be a really tricky challenge for operators to answer.

Big trucks can offer the greatest efficiency, but only if your customer order profile and goods movements can justify it.

Small vehicle fleets can be the most nimble and easiest to resource, but offer significantly diminishing value as load size and distance increase.

Our Expert transport consultants can help you identify what fleet mix works for you, for now and in future.

We will ask if third party operations may provide you greater flexibility and cost control. If they do we can help you navigate that path as well.

Our expert transport planners can help you develop and maintain highly efficient transport schedules for your transport operations. We can help you reduce miles, driver hours and fuel usage by producing highly cost effective routes for your teams to follow.

We can carry out a one-time comparison study to see how you compare to where you should be, or work with you to produce periodic re-schedules to help keep you on track.

If you need a more dynamic solution, we can help you navigate the steps to select and implement your own transport planning solution.

Fleet and operations compliance
and legality

Ensuring your fleet and operations are safe and legal.

Read more

The regulatory framework around goods vehicles and drivers is one of the most stringent of any sector in our economy.

Our compliance experts can help you safeguard your reputation by checking that you are doing all the right things to meet and stay ahead of regulations.

From Drivers hours to tacho review processes to vehicle servicing and MOT cycles, we can review your processes and preserve your good repute and your ‘O’ Licence.

Often organisations are surprised by the things that can have a negative impact on compliance, and we can help you with that too.

As an added benefit, when reviewing your compliance, if we spot room for efficiency gains, we’ll highlight that to you as well.
