Pendragon Vehicle Management has signed a new partnership with Xylem Water Solutions UK, a global water technology company, for the supply and management of its commercial fleet.

Xylem’s fleet which consists of Ford Transit 350s, Transit Customs and Transit Connects, needed converting to enable the safe transportation of equipment and tools, which was completed by Sortimo, based in Warrington.

Pendragon Vehicle Management is supplying all light commercial vehicles on contract hire agreements, supported by full repairs and maintenance, breakdown recovery, tyres and relief vehicles, whilst the fleet is supported with advanced management software and reporting tools.

Xylem is also taking advantage of the RED (Reduced End of Contract Damage Costs) service, which is designed to protect the customer from costly end of contract reconditioning charges.

Steve Bagguley, transport manager north at Xylem, said: “We required a bespoke fleet of vehicles for our needs, with a complex conversion to suit the materials we need to transport. Pendragon Vehicle Management was great at understanding what we needed and have delivered exactly what we were after. This is supported with excellent support and reporting facilities which help us keep a close eye on our fleet.”

Jon Hilton, head of sales at Pendragon Vehicle Management, continued: “We work hard to provide our clients with bespoke management solutions tailored directly to their requirements. Providing direct support, we ensure Xylem have an in-house contact on hand to solve any queries, whilst drivers are accounted for with online systems and phone support. We look forward to working with Xylem moving forwards into the future.”
