What is fleet maintenance?
Fleet maintenance is how you ensure your vehicles remain in good operating condition to remain compliant, and efficient, and experience less downtime. A high-quality maintenance programme is integral to managing a fleet and helps businesses reduce operating costs and improve fleet performance.
Your fleet management data can be used to optimise fleet maintenance by using the recorded data to identify potential future issues early. Early identification helps you deal with any problems faster which can reduce repair costs and prevent operational hazards during work hours, keeping your drivers safe.
