When vehicle lead times began to lengthen due to the global parts shortage, Ogilvie realised a fresh approach was needed to manage an unprecedented situation for customers. To avoid the frustrations of long and unpredictable delivery dates, it developed its own proprietary lead-time generator app to assist clients.
This tool uses rolling analytics gathered from our own order bank and data from across the industry to generate a lead time estimate for LCVs, based on the latest data for any specific model.
By allowing Ogilvie to forecast lead times to an accuracy of between 2-3 weeks, its has removed a large degree of the guesswork from fleet managers looking to ensure mobility for their drivers in the year ahead.
Amid the uncertainty in the industry, and to lessen frustration for customers and their drivers, Ogilvie has been able to quickly supply short-term vehicles via its rental division.
Utilising its own stock, alongside a partner network of over 500,000 vehicles, it is able to source appropriate vans to plug gaps in fleets that have been created during the shortage.
Not only can Ogilvie source vehicles quickly, but it has the added advantage of appearing on the customer’s monthly billing.
The global supply chain issues won’t be going away any time soon, and even when they do, it is entirely possible that longer lead times will become normality. That’s why our commitment to our customers will be to flex their vehicles replacement cycles and allow them to keep existing vehicles as long as needed, even if they have ordered a replacement with a competitor or the driver has decided to opt-out.
Overall fleet efficiency is key for customers, and vehicle downtime monitoring is an integral part of Ogilvie’s service proposition. It offers a dedicated management service for every vehicle that is ‘off the road’ for more than four hours, via a sophisticated task management tool.
Advanced software allows it to chase and schedule follow-ups for any vehicles that are off the road, some of which are automatically chased by the system while others that are more specialist in their requirements, prompt a manual intervention from one of our in-house experts.
Ogilvie not only supports businesses and fleet managers but hard-working van drivers too with its free-to-use Happy Drivers App with a number of new features added this year.
Drivers are now able to add their own vehicles under the ‘My Vehicles’ page and perform a number of tasks including order tracking, mileage capture, service reminders, and vehicle appraisals. With over 5,000 downloads, the app is currently receiving around 500 mileage updates per month, which is fed back into our system and available to see immediately, enabling fleet managers to access up-to-date mileage information, which was previously only updated once a year.
Ogilvie also provides an end-to-end fleet fulfillment and support proposition, from initial consultation and needs analysis, through to vehicle recommendations, ordering, conversion, delivery, SMR, driver support, and de-fleet, in order to ensure that businesses can see the entire picture of their fleet and its value.
