Impartial advice to meet changing needs
Lex Autolease doesn't just hand over keys, it strives to offer comprehensive service that is effective and all about best practice.
As part of Lloyds Banking Group, Lex Autolease is committed to helping Britain prosper. Whether for start ups with one vehicle or multi-nationals with a fleet of thousands, we provide a range of services to ensure businesses reduce commercial vehicle downtime while maximising fleet efficiency. This includes end-to-end fleet management solutions and actionable management information.
Through our services and vehicles, we also emphasise the importance of commercial vehicle drivers being able to do their job easily, safely and efficiently.
Our method is simple, but effective. We do not just hand over a vehicle’s keys, but take a fully consultative approach with all of our customers. Our established and dedicated commercial fleet engineering consultancy team is unique and does not just help us stand out within the sector, but is focused on supporting businesses in achieving their fleet goals.
The eight-strong team has more than 250 years’ combined experience within commercial fleet management, which means we can give businesses the support and advice they need on key areas such as vehicle specification, tax, health & safety and compliance. Sitting outside of the sales teams, they are rewarded for achieving good customer outcomes rather than for revenue. This ensures our customers benefit from impartial operational and organisational advice to help their fleet continually meet any changing business needs.
Working alongside our engineering consultancy team is a dedicated crew of commercial fleet technicians and commercial vehicle downtime managers. They actively participate in key industry boards and committees, and their membership of leading industry organisations means we have access to unrivalled insight about existing and emerging challenges faced by commercial fleet managers.
As well as sharing insight, providing fleet guidance and maximising vehicles’ on-road time, we can also support businesses with cost-efficiency strategies.
We have been closely involved in the design of new ultra-lightweight racking and innovative internal storage solutions, giving businesses additional opportunities to cut costs.
In addition, we continue to focus on sustainability and increased our number of electric vehicles by 20% last year.
We work closely with the wider industry on new OEM products, designs, innovation and legislation.
In recognition of our efforts to promote safe and legal operations, and by consistently demonstrating our commitment to best practice, compliance and health & safety, we have been awarded Gold Partner Certification for Van Excellence by the Freight Transport Association (FTA).
We currently manage more than 100,000 commercial vehicles across the UK, supporting them with a national network of agents and suppliers to cover fleet needs 24/7. What does this mean? National coverage with a local feel to ensure businesses keep their commercial fleet on the road, supporting their needs..
