How Greener Ealing Ltd boosted fleet efficiency with Vehocheck

Greener Ealing Limited (GEL) delivers essential services to the residents and businesses of Ealing, a bustling London borough. As a local authority trading company, GEL is responsible for waste and recycling collection, street cleansing, grounds maintenance, and parking services.

To deliver these vital services day in and day out, GEL relies on a large and diverse fleet of vehicles. From recycling vehicles to street sweepers and maintenance vans, each vehicle plays a critical role in their operations.

The Challenge: Managing a Diverse Fleet Efficiently

GEL's vehicles range from heavy-duty waste collection trucks to smaller maintenance vans, each with unique servicing schedules and compliance requirements. Their previous system struggled to keep pace, creating gaps in data and making it difficult to get a clear, real-time picture of the fleet's status.

Without a centralised system, tracking everything from daily vehicle checks to long-term maintenance schedules was a cumbersome, paper-heavy process. This made it challenging to spot recurring defects early, track repair costs accurately, and ensure every vehicle was compliant and safe.

For an organisation dedicated to efficiency, these limitations were a significant operational hurdle.

GEL needed a solution that could provide real-time data, streamline maintenance workflows, and bring all their vehicle information into one accessible place.

The Solution: Implementing Vehocheck

After reviewing several products on the market, GEL chose Vehocheck to modernise its fleet management. The decision was based on Vehocheck's ability to fill the gaps left by their old system and its strong reputation among other Councils. The platform's flexibility and the team's excellent customer service were also key factors.

"We chose Vehocheck because of the excellent customer service and the flexibility the system offers.

The Vehocheck team has been highly responsive and able to adapt the platform to suit our specific operational needs."

"The product has made our engineers noticeably more productive, and the workshop as a whole has seen meaningful improvements in efficiency and workflow.

With digital job cards and real-time updates, engineers can move from one task to the next without delays".

The Positive Impact of implementing Vehocheck

The platform's dashboard provides a live, accurate overview of damages, costs, and completed work. This real-time visibility allows the management team to make informed decisions quickly, improving their ability to maintain the fleet efficiently.

Streamlined Efficiency and Compliance
By digitising its processes, GEL has streamlined its service operations and compliance management. The investment has saved the team a significant amount of time and boosted efficiency across the board. The digital system ensures that all necessary checks and records are completed and stored correctly, simplifying compliance and providing a clear audit trail.

Measurable Cost Savings

Moving away from paper-based systems has resulted in direct cost savings. "We've eliminated the use of paper in the workshop, as all processes are now managed online, which has directly reduced our paper-related costs," Khayreddine confirmed. This shift not only saves money but also aligns perfectly with GEL's commitment to sustainability.

A Partnership for a Greener Future

The implementation of Vehocheck has been a resounding success for Greener Ealing Limited. The investment has proven its worth by saving time, improving efficiency, and providing the tools needed to manage a complex fleet with confidence.

Whether you're a local authority or a business managing vehicles and machinery, Vehocheck is ready to support you every step of the way.
