What is fleet management?

Fleet management is the process of overseeing the performance and maintenance of a fleet – designed to keep productivity high and downtime low.

Fleet managers can be in charge of everything from vehicle maintenance and driver management to route planning and fuel consumption – so there’s a lot involved. That’s why many fleet managers use fleet management software to help. Software like JCB LiveLink.

Why fleet management is vital

Fleet management includes taking care of vital things like managing fleet expenses, taking care of any repairs to damaged machinery, and keeping on top of each machine’s maintenance schedule – as well as dealing with any unforeseen circumstances like accidents or theft.

Put simply, effective fleet management is all about staying in control and having visibility over your entire fleet – and there are solutions that provide manage fleet services to help you do exactly that.
