Outsourcing your entire fleet management procurement cycle & the advantages

Every business has different requirements for their fleet, with one thing in common - minimising downtime. Outsourcing your fleet to a mobility solution like Herd Synergy enables you to take advantage of a wide range of services tailored to your company's needs, whether that's streamlining your fleet maintenance process, overcoming supply chain disruptions, increasing efficiencies, reducing your admin time, and maintaining compliance.

If you have a single van or a thousand vans, you can utilise as little or as many of our services as you require to create your mobility utopia.

Managing a fleet can be complex and time-consuming, and whilst specialist knowledge is essential in many roles, fleet management demands a lot of expertise. Outsourcing fleet management means that a whole host of services can be taken care of, and a range of cost savings made with the knowledge and expertise of an experienced team.

At Herd, we take care of a broad range of services including vehicle acquisition, service and maintenance, repairs, and driver management through to de-fleet and disposal. We design a bespoke 'cradle to grave' fleet solution with flexibility to suit your exact business requirements.

Vehicle off-road time (VOR) due to unplanned maintenance disrupts service obligation and adds a huge hidden cost to a business. Despite this, many businesses fail to measure their van fleet's VOR time in terms of £'s, focusing solely on repair costs rather than factoring the 'lost revenue' of not having a vehicle available.

At Herd we work closely with each customer to identify specific rulesets to ensure vehicle off-road times are kept to an absolute minimum. Qualified maintenance technicians scrutinise and authorise any required work quickly and efficiently - the focus being on returning the vehicle to the road as quickly as possible.

Do you need specific adaptations made to your vehicle to make it work for your business? Herd partner with the very best specialist vehicle convertors and suppliers in the industry delivering high-spec conversions and fit-outs. Whether it's ramps for heavy machinery, durable flooring, tow bars and racking, all of this can be accommodated.

We can also scale up your vehicle security with a wide range of security solutions including everything from locking and shielding solutions to alarms and cargo locks.

Vehicle disposal is the final phase of the fleet management lifecycle. At Herd we provide a reliable and well-structured route to guarantee that disposal and replacement arrangements can be made within the correct time frames. Our team monitors your vehicle lifetime and notifies disposal timescales so arrangements are made several months in advance, helping to minimise operational costs.
