For fleet control
July 1st 2009 Guildford Borough Council uses
Traka's key management system on
its fleet of 44 waste collection
vehicles to help maximise vehicle
utilisation.
To comply with the requirements
of the Vehicle and Operator Services
Agency (VOSA), Guildford Council
must maintain strict records on
vehicle maintenance, driver licensing
and competence, and vehicle use and
mileage. With about 25% of its
driver workforce employed by
agencies, responsibility and
accountability for vehicle use has in
the past been a particular challenge.
As drivers know they can be
identified via the Traka system, they
are much more likely to report
minor accidents. The system also
ensures only authorised users gain
access to the keys, preventing the risk
of operators driving a vehicles they
are not qualified for. More articles from Traka Plc: |
