Fleet management & vehicle leasing solutions
What is fleet management? Good fleet management should be an efficient system for keeping track of all the vehicles you use within your business, whether it’s delivery vans or salary sacrifice company cars. Managing a fleet of vehicles is sometimes easier said than done however, so our team of professional and friendly Account Managers will help you lease the cars and vans you require to run your fleet, using our software for fleet management
In addition, the Synergy Fleet Management solution enables your company to store your vehicles and drivers details into one online management system. Automatic compliance starts immediately with prompts for MOTs, road fund licence renewals, routine maintenance and servicing as well as driver licence checks. You just need to provide the registration number and current odometer reading to do this.
Using the Synergy Fleet Management system, we can assist in managing and reducing maintenance and tyre costs ensuring you keep your vehicles on the road and running efficiently.
Driving licence checks are simple. Once your driver details are loaded, the fleet management software system will email the drivers to complete a DVLA validation process and authorise you to check their licence as long as they stay in your employment. The checks are done directly with the DVLA (no involvement from you or your drivers), and you will get a licence check history for compliance and alerts when drivers get penalties or disqualifications.
