Fleet Assist continues to be recognised as setting the benchmark for innovation in SMR as it wins the Innovation in SMR award at the Great British Fleet awards.
Up against some blue-chip names from the automotive industry Fleet Assist was presented with the Innovation in SMR award for its new Uptime Management product.
Fleet World editor Simon Harris congratulated Fleet Assist on its new product as “Driving uptime and efficiency – transforming downtime into productivity gains.”
Uptime Management focuses on delivering preventative and proactive compliance maintenance for car, LCV and truck fleets to help them avoid costly disruptive vehicle downtime and distress events.
The service delivered by a combination of its system development and dedicated team harnesses a combination of continuous connected vehicle and other reference data points to analyse and optimise vehicle maintenance schedules effectively.
If its completely unavoidable for the vehicle to be off the road the Uptime Management service includes scheduling repairer bookings, managing rental provision, repair progression tracking, work authorisation and vehicle repatriation to help get it back working as soon as possible.
Commenting on the award win Vincent St Claire, Fleet Assist’s MD said: “We continue to develop new products and services in line with the needs of our customers who are operating in a very dynamic SMR climate that is forever changing. This is a pivotal moment when the industry needs to move to a culture of proactive scheduled maintenance management rather than relying on a long-established skill set of dealing with distress situations.
“We pride ourselves on staying one step ahead of the industry and our uptime management product is proof of this. We know how disruptive and costly it can be when a vehicle is off the road but by being more proactive using multiple data sources through API integration, we can help optimise vehicle utilisation.”
