Freeway Fleet Systems has launched a fleet maintenance cost analysis software package.

Part of the Freeway fleet maintenance management system, the Freeway analytics software allows operators to analyse the productivity and efficiency of the fleet, depot, staff and suppliers, with graphical reports.

The analytics can reveal trends by drilling down to the details to understand the causes of higher-than-expected costs, with costs analysed over time, per kilometre, mile or hour.

Productivity can be also analysed by trade, staff and task, with comparisons across dimensions such as region, depot and time-frame.

Fuel consumption can be assessed by make, model, region or route type. Poor performance by vehicles within the group can identified, even down to per-fill anomalies for a particular vehicle.

Patrick Tandy, managing director of Freeway Fleet Systems, said: “Freeway has proven to significantly reduce fleet maintenance costs, and our extensive analytics tools allow those improvements to be achieved quickly by pinpointing areas of excessive costs, whether it be high fuel consumption, inferior parts, unproductive use of labour or poor driving."
