Budget-stressed fleet managers can benefit from the new online Fleet Matters, which offers realistic advice on saving fuel. The latest free flip-book in the Fleet Matters series from Fuel Card Services shows how fleet fuel consumption can be reduced through action in three areas: vehicle care, journey preparation and eco-driving. It offers 22 straightforward measures that any fleet manager can implement to cut fuel usage.
 
Each issue of Fleet Matters contains clear guidance of relevance to any type or size of fleet, including owner-drivers with single vehicles. The advice given can be applied equally by owned, leased and ‘grey’ fleets. The help is based on years of experience in working with fleets nationwide. The measures, presented as ‘Action Points,’ are selected for relevance to all types of road vehicle and to both private and public sectors.
 
Steve Clarke, group marketing manager, said, “Fuel Card Services has proven expertise in helping with vehicle management. Every day, we work with customers ranging from public sector transport managers running just a few vans to private sector fleet managers responsible for hundreds of mixed vehicles. We know the issues, from fuel consumption to emissions monitoring, from talking to them constantly. It takes many years to grow this breadth and depth of experience, which we are now feeding back.”
 
Fleet Matters readers have easy access to its topic’s salient points, with best practice guidance distilled into a compact space. Many fleet managers will already know some of the advice, but most should find something new. There are no sales messages or advertising, just factual information to assist managers in running their vehicles more effectively.
