Fleet Case Studies
EVP’s fleet case studies demonstrate our fleet management project delivery experience and capability.
Our team has an unmatched depth and breadth of consultative experience in fleet management. Furthermore, we can cover all aspects of running your fleet from the strategic to the operational level. EVP has the expertise to influence every level of your business.
Customers receive the best value, with expectations met and projects delivered on time, so our legacy is lean, cost-effective and performance-driven.
EVP is entirely independent of any fleet-related supplier, which means you will always get the right advice all of the time. We are also members of the AFP.
The Challenge
Marlowe Environmental Services had grown its fleet of 1,300 vehicles through several acquisitions. Each fleet had been incorporated into the group but continued to be operated as an independent entity.
EVP Solutions were engaged to look at bringing together the fleet under a single organisation structure, optimising the supply chain and generating efficiencies across the combined entity.
Our Approach
- Examine, harmonise and interpret the spend data from 84 existing suppliers across 15 separate entities.
- Engage stakeholders within the fleet team to understand the current operations and processes.
- Engage senior stakeholders across the business to understand overall business objectives and timescales.
- Formulate plans for implementing change including key risks and timing.
- Agree strategy and communicate across stakeholder groups
Our Solution
- Consolidate supply arrangements into a single fleet management provider to rationalise the supply chain and yield process and commercial efficiency.
- Develop and deliver a fleet tender process, engaging those suppliers with the capability to support MES.
- Collaboratively conclude the supplier selection process and conclude final negotiations and contractual concessions.
- Implementation plan including legacy management plan.
The Results
Customer Testimonial
“As an organisation that had grown significantly over the last 5 years, with many acquisitions, we needed some expert help in defining our fleet strategy. I did some research and EVP solutions stood out as a partner we could work with to help us on the next phase of our journey.”
“After meeting EVP and defining our initial requirement, they quickly jumped in and provided expert advice. Not only this, but the team also supported our internal colleagues on defining the plan, tendering solutions and getting us moving into our strategy. The knowledge, experience and support have been second to none, and I am thrilled we chose to work with them.”
“I would absolutely recommend the team at EVP solutions, whether your need is big or small, the team are on hand to support.”
