Many UK fleets carry too many vehicles or the wrong vehicle types, resulting in wasted capital and unnecessary running costs. Fleet right-sizing matches your vehicle inventory precisely to operational demand.
Steps to Right-Size Your Fleet
- Analyse Utilisation Data: Review vehicle usage patterns to identify underutilised assets.
- Match Vehicles to Tasks: Ensure payload, range, and vehicle type align with actual job requirements.
- Consider Seasonal Variation: Use flexible leasing to scale capacity up during peak periods.
- Benchmark Against Peers: Compare your fleet size and mix to industry standards.
Zolt’s fleet review service includes detailed utilisation analysis and recommendations for optimal fleet composition.
Impact of Right-Sizing
Companies that right-size their fleets typically reduce total vehicles by 10-15% while maintaining or improving service delivery. The savings compound over time through lower leasing, fuel, and maintenance costs.
“Zolt’s review showed we could eliminate 8 vehicles and save £95,000 annually without affecting operations.”
