Fleet

vs the telematics-first fleet tool

Fleet built for an M&E operation, not just a map of dots. DVSA walk-around compliance, defects that automatically take a vehicle off the road, a driver licence-category eligibility gate that blocks an ineligible assignment, and HMRC AMAP cost-per-mile — with telematics as an optional feed, not the whole product.

Why it wins

  • DVSA daily walk-around compliance and defect logging built in
  • A critical defect automatically takes the vehicle off the road (VOR)
  • Driver licence-category eligibility gate blocks an ineligible assignment
  • HMRC AMAP costing, MPG and cost-per-mile; telematics is an optional feed
