Managing a large car and van fleet can be a Herculean task, especially as it’s not the focal point of your business. The great news is that Fleet Alliance can alleviate this burden. In this article, I explore the problems most businesses encounter in managing their fleet, and how we stand out as your problem-solving partner.

The Challenges of Fleet Management


1. Cost Escalation 

Have you faced rising leasing costs over the past year that have been larger than 5%?

In an ever-changing economic landscape, escalating leasing costs can eat into your ‘bottom line’. Fleet Alliance recognises this challenge and offers a tailored suite of innovative solutions to ensure cost-effectiveness without compromising quality.

2. Administrative Overload 

Swamped in administration? If internal fleet administration is consuming your resources or distracting you from what is important to your business, we’re ready to streamline and systemise it for you.

Fleet Alliance understands the importance of efficiency and provides streamlined solutions to alleviate your administrative headache, letting you (and your team) focus on core business.

3. Lack of Recognition 

Feeling undervalued by your current leasing partner? If your loyalty is not being rewarded as it deserves, then maybe it’s time for a change.

Your loyalty to a fleet leasing partner should be rewarded with added-value and recognition. Fleet Alliance believes in creating strong partnerships and ensures your commitment to us is always recognised and rewarded.

4. Service Level Complaints

Driver complaints relating to service levels increasing? If the service levels to your drivers, employees, and internal stakeholders are falling, then we can help.

Your fleet is an extension of your brand, and the service levels provided should reflect positively on your business. Fleet Alliance focuses on elevating service levels to keep your drivers and stakeholders satisfied, contributing to a positive perception of ‘fleet’.

5. Unbiased Advice and Sustainability

Would you like unbiased advice whilst reducing your carbon footprint? If you have doubts about the impartiality of your current partner’s advice, we’re here to offer an impartial second opinion that’s objective and transparent. And, always in your best interest, not theirs.

At a time when sustainability is paramount, fleet management decisions need to align with eco-friendly practices. Fleet Alliance provides unbiased advice and actively supports initiatives to reduce your carbon footprint, ensuring your business operates responsibly.
