Updates to DAVIS Fleet to give managers greater control
Licence Check adds updates to DAVIS Fleet to give managers greater control.
Licence Check has added further updates its award-winning analytical fleet management solution, DAVIS Fleet, to give fleet managers greater visibility, reduced admin, enhanced compliance and heightened control over their fleets.
The updates include a new pool vehicle booking and inspection feature to improve pool vehicle safety and compliance. Drivers are now able to check in and check out pool vehicles directly through the DAVIS Driver App, incorporating a vehicle inspection to ensure pool vehicle condition is monitored for every allocation.
The new feature improves P11D reporting accuracy, reduces unexpected damage costs and increases driver accountability from the improved transparency.
At the same time, a new instant defect and damage reporting update allows drivers to report a defect or damage at any time via the app, rather than waiting for scheduled inspections.
The reports generated are then immediately visible in DAVIS Fleet, keeping the fleet manager instantly informed and allowing him or her to take action quickly to maintain vehicle safety and compliance.
DAVIS Fleet is fully integrated within DAVIS (Driver and Vehicle Information Solutions), Licence Check’s market-leading risk management platform, and the new updates provide fleet managers with further insightful management information upon which to take swift and immediate action.
At the same time, Licence Check has refreshed the DAVIS Driver App, which was launched last autumn, to give fleet drivers an improved experience and a more personalised approach.
A new set of mini dashboards will now provide drivers with an at-a-glance and enhanced view of the features to which they have access.
For example, if they have access to the Coaching module within DAVIS as part of an ongoing driver training program, they will only see relevant coaching information.
Similarly, a driver with access to both Coaching and Fleet will see all relevant and available features, but in a concise, snapshot manner via the new dashboards for ease of use and to avoid over-complicating and confusing the driver.
The ‘Tasks’ section, which notifies drivers which are the most urgent jobs to carry out, remains the most important part of the app. Licence Check designers have kept this interface as simple as possible, with the tasks designed to be most prominent and up front and across all individual screens.
The Driver App integrates seamlessly with DAVIS Fleet in a highly effective manner so that fleet managers can see dashboard views of all exceptions, such as under and over mileages, vehicles nearing mileage limits, vehicles without mileage recorded and any defects, and be able to manage their fleets with greater control and efficiency.
Licence Check managing director, Keith Allen, comments: “These latest updates within DAVIS Fleet and the Driver App are designed to further enhance the ease of use of the platform, giving fleet managers greater visibility and control and drivers enhanced functionality.
“We are constantly refining and updating DAVIS Fleet to help fleet managers manage their fleets in a more cost effective, risk efficient, compliant and sustainable manner, and improve the ease of use for drivers.
“Our ongoing objective is to further develop the DAVIS platform from what was originally known as a licence checking operation to a comprehensive fleet management offering for car and van fleet operators. The feedback we get from fleet manager users is that they really value our developments.
“We have a stream of new planned features in the pipeline for DAVIS Fleet, which we will continue to roll out in a timely and considered manner, always with the aim of enhancing the experience for our constantly growing number of users,” he added.
