INCREASING digitalisation and capabilities of new technologies has led Herd Hire to launch a  Fleet Management Solution – Herd Connect, which allows businesses to outsource their fleet management from vehicle acquisition, asset and driver management through to de-fleet, refurb and disposal.

Brilliant Fleet Management is a complete end-to-end system, which manages all aspects of fleet requirements. Providing a cloud based customer dashboard which always provides up-to-date information includes;

  • Vehicle allocation and utilisation tracking.
  • Driver, vehicle and lease management.
  • Flexible vehicle rental, driver grade and vehicle band definition.
  • Trade up/down management
  • Driver contributions
  • Vehicle scheduled event tracking and reminders
  • Servicing and maintenance management

  • DVLA licence checking
  • Driver risk profiling
  • Fuel management

  • Supplier data
  • Management reports
  • P11d reporting.

With Car and LCV traffic having seen the highest annual increase (in percentage terms) last year with a record high of 356.5 billion vehicle miles driven on Great Britain’s roads, the requirement for a complete fleet management outsource service has never been greater and it’s not slowing down.

Mike Cooke, Head of Fleet said “Herd Connect is an invaluable solution for anyone running a fleet of vehicles.  We will become their fleet department, so an immediate saving on resource and benefit from a range of cost savings which allows you to focus on the growth of your business”

Herd Connect is designed to reduce the burden of in-house fleet administration whilst providing increased fleet management, ensuring vehicles are health and safety compliant. Herd Connect provides fleet management for cars, LCV’s and has capabilities to manage electric vehicles as well.

With Herd Connect, businesses will achieve a paper-free operation and with the adoption of the My Vehicle inspection App will enable drivers to carry out vehicle inspections and log defects via their smart phones and with full integration with our online fleet management system, this ensures that essential vehicle inspections are up-to-date.

Herd is offering the Brilliant Fleet Management service FREE for 12 months, with the cost of maintenance and repairs reduced, by using its network of preferred suppliers.

Herd Group Managing Director, Nigel Schroder said: ” We have invested heavily in Herd Connect, which has a whole host of benefits to anyone who manages a fleet of vehicles, providing fleet operating efficiencies and enhanced compliance management, all in one automated process”
