‘Advantage Point’ aims to help fleets cut maintenance costs

The Fuelcard Company has partnered with MultiFleet to launch a VIP fleet product to help their customers reduce vehicle maintenance costs by more than £200 per vehicle per year.

Advantage Point provides a complete package for all business vehicle maintenance needs, promising savings on a range of fleet purchases from tyres, windscreens, exhausts and batteries through to MOTs, services, labour and even vehicle hire and leasing.

With discounts of up to 40% on RRP, customers of The Fuelcard Company could make savings in excess of £200 per vehicle per year, which could add up to thousands for larger fleets.

Jakes de Kock, sales and marketing director at The Fuelcard Company, said Advantage Point will transform the way fleet managers organise their vehicle maintenance.

“We recognise that managing fleet maintenance can be a real headache and very time consuming when you have to source services from different places, especially for larger fleets,” he said.

“The Advantage Point product aims to solve this problem by centralising vehicle maintenance services, saving fleet companies money on administration as well as service costs.”

Advantage Point is available to fleets of all sizes from cars and vans to commercial vehicles. Managers can also access an online fleet management system which tracks and reports on every aspect of vehicle maintenance spend and stores all vehicle and driver information in one easy-to-access location.

The system can also aid fleet managers in their duty of care to drivers by helping to identify the individual behind the wheel in the event of an accident.

“Via our Multifleet partnership, our customers have access to market leading brands like Kwik-Fit and the RAC, so fleet managers have peace of mind knowing that their vehicles are being maintained by reliable, industry recognised organisations, who are known for delivering a high quality service. In addition our free accident management service will ensure safety is top of the agenda for fleets,” said de Kock.

Businesses will receive one monthly statement for all the services they have used, avoiding the need to process dozens of receipts and streamlining the entire administration process.
