ALD Automotive has announced that Morgan Sindall has signed a three-year sole supplier agreement to manage its fleet of 2,400 vehicles in the UK.

As sole supplier, ALD Automotive will deliver a whole range of products and services to Morgan Sindall, including ProFleet2, FuelEx, ALD’s new mileage capture and fuel deduction system and PoolFleet to provide short term vehicles for specific requirements for staff in their trial period or for temporary staff. In addition, ALD will supply Morgan Sindall with DriveSafe – a suite of risk management products.

Morgan Sindall will also have access to ALD Automotive’s unique threesixty online system, through which all of ALD’s customer applications and functionality will be deployed.

The decision to appoint ALD Automotive followed a detailed tender process. Morgan Sindall selected ALD as being the company best suited to meet their key objectives of delivering reduced TCO (total cost of ownership) across the fleet and reducing carbon emissions across the new fleet policy to assist with Morgan Sindall’s corporate social responsibility strategy.

Graham Edgell, group procurement director, Morgan Sindall comments: “ALD Automotive consistently demonstrated as part of the tender process that they have the experience of managing large fleets of vehicles, whilst also being able to deliver improved cost savings as part of a thorough total cost of ownership programme.”

Keith Allen, managing director of ALD Automotive comments: “The three-year sole supplier agreement between ALD and Morgan Sindall highlights their confidence in our ability to deliver a fully outsourced fleet solution. The combination of ALD Automotive’s account management team and our in-house systems development will ensure that all of Morgan Sindall Group’s objectives for managing their fleet are achieved."
