Vehicle use across the 'Essential Services' sector

• In the NHS for example, fleet operations include everything from providing patient transport, and clinical waste management to delivering pool car provision for staff.
  
• Local Authorities have responsibilities that include street cleaning, recycling, together with parks and grounds maintenance.
  
• Within the blue light emergency sector, response times and reliable vehicle assets are essential.
  
• Many social housing providers now run their own maintenance services and have large fleets of LCVS, which are dispatched carrying various tradespeople to carry our repairs. Fleets in this sector also have to provide an element of social care.
  
• Within the utility and infrastructure management sectors, fleet professionals operate extensive and diverse fleets, which are usually dispersed over large geographical areas. Fleet composition and the types of assets procured, include vehicles for engineers and corporate staff, as well as specialist and converted vehicles with on-board facilities such as welfare and power.
  

Editorial Focus

Managing capital assets and at the same time achieving standardisation in driver and vehicle safety across large fleets is a complex task. A key focus for the ‘Essential Services’ sector, is therefore about optimising fleet utilisation and delivering cost-effective fleet management.
Fleets across the UK are also now in a transitional phase, many opting to electrify their whole fleet or where this isn’t possible, utilise lower-emission fuels. Essential Fleet Manager Magazine provides key guidance to help fleet and transport managers understand how to transition in the most cost-effective way with best practice guides and by sharing insights from fleet professionals across the sector who have already started on this transitional journey.
