Technology is playing an increasingly important role when it comes to running a fleet that operates as efficiently – and as safely – as possible.

We fully recognise the value that technology can bring, whether it’s in terms of minimising vehicle off road time (VOR), supporting driver safety or ensuring vans are fully roadworthy.

Managing over 57,000 vans and specialist commercials in the UK means that we understand that these vehicles are not simply a core component of business, they are the business.

That’s why we’ve built an app that enables drivers to conduct a daily van check; providing online data, auditing and reporting for transport teams.

And as the first leasing provider to partner with the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) we’re delighted that FORS is supporting the new app.

Mark Lovett, Head of Vans at LeasePlan UK, said:

Managing over 57,000 vans and specialist commercials gives us invaluable insight into the needs of drivers and operators today – and at LeasePlan, we understand that these vehicles are not simply a core component of business, they are their business.

With the FORS stamp of approval the app will make it easier for businesses running vans to be compliant; and with a strong focus on vehicle uptime we’re confident it will also cut down on admin for business owners.
