Managing a grey fleet — permitting employees to use their personal vehicles for business purposes — is an effective strategy, provided there's diligent oversight regarding the health and maintenance of these vehicles.

This approach can significantly lower costs compared to maintaining a company-owned fleet and eliminates the initial outlay for purchasing or leasing vehicles.

A well-managed grey fleet can offer substantial advantages over company-owned vehicle management. However, without proper management, a grey fleet may present challenges not typically associated with company-owned fleets. Encouraging drivers to utilise their personal vehicles for business travel can offer a more cost-efficient solution for smaller, low-mileage organisations than operating a fleet of company vehicles.

Our grey fleet management service ensures you harness these benefits effectively, maintaining the balance between cost-efficiency and fleet safety.
