New fleet software that can be adopted for free by any business that operates cars and vans is being officially launched by FleetCheck at the Great British Fleet Event on 17 April in Milton Keynes.
Called DriverLite, it is based on FleetCheck’s Driver, which was introduced in 2017 and to date has used by 1,053 fleets to carry out more than 20 million vehicle inspections.
Features include free inspection check sheets for an unlimited number of drivers and vehicles, visibility of how long each pre-use inspection takes, missed inspections, instant evidence of damage and defects, a robust audit trail of inspections, mileage collection for SMR schedules, a driver’s toolkit with read receipts, and a multi-language user interface.
Peter Golding, managing director at FleetCheck, said: “We’re delighted that the Great British Fleet Event is the venue for the official launch of our new DriverLite, where we’ll be showing visitors the new software and explaining the benefits it can bring to their fleet.
“It contains everything a business needs to ensure they are meeting their fundamental legal requirements when it comes to vehicle inspections. For the many that are still using manual, paper-based systems to carry out these checks, adopting it is something of a no-brainer.
“The impetus for us in offering this product is both ethical and commercial. Every day, we see fleets that are not fulfilling basic safety necessities and this software provides the means for them to dramatically improve their performance in this area. We believe that everybody has the right to be as safe as possible on the road and know that this is a product that can help to reduce accidents and injuries in an intuitive and effective manner.
“However, we also hope that it will lead to more fleets upgrading over time to our paid products as they learn the benefits of using our technology. It should be underlined though, that is no pressure to do this, and DriverLite is not in any way restricted. Unlike some free software products, there are no limits on the number of drivers or vehicles registered.”
FleetCheck will showcase its complete range of fleet software products at the Great British Fleet Event, including the Driver, Essential, Professional and Expert level products, as well as demonstrating its new AI-based invoice scanning tool.
Golding added: “As a business, we continue to grow rapidly, recently doubling our office space and attracting more than 300 new customers in the last 12 months. Alongside this, we’ve continued to invest heavily in product development, and we’re looking forward to meeting fleet operators at the Great British Fleet Event and showing them our latest innovations.”
