Speedy, the UK’s leading provider of rental equipment and support services, has announced that it will implement award-winning fleet management technology from Masternaut, which will result in accelerated equipment delivery times and increased customer service levels. With its proven track record in the service management sector, Masternaut was selected following a comprehensive procurement process that included detailed ROI analysis.
Speedy’s brief was clear: to ensure investment in Masternaut must deliver a measureable difference in the eyes of their customers. First and foremost, implementation needed to deliver improved customer services, improved collection and delivery times in addition to reducing fleet cost. The Masternaut system, which will be installed across 1,220 of its UK delivery vehicles, will provide Speedy with real-time visibility into its end-to-end fleet operations. This visibility will help Speedy further improve its fleet, increase productivity (for example, through more efficient scheduling) and exceed on customer expectations. The system will also provide comprehensive reporting into driver behaviour, so that more economical driving can be encouraged, to improve fuel economy and reduce carbon emissions.
