28th January 2016

Did you know that when a fleet vehicle is off the road for accident repairs, businesses typically lose £500 per day, according to the RAC. However, this cost isn’t just the result of vehicle replacement hires and repairs.

Considering companies are measured on performance targets, struggling to meet deadlines and ensuring on-time delivery of products and services can be a major issue when vehicles are off the road. Add to this the loss of a company’s reputation, penalties, lost customers and cash flow implications and you now have a real problem. And these are not the only costs.You can also add at least £175 per day in time consuming administration, sourcing and liaising with reliable, approved bodyshops, progress chasing repairs and accounts issues.
