Meeting the changing needs of customers

 

As Mark Tejedor, Vice President Commercial Replacement and OE at Bridgestone EMIA, said during the Fleetcare launch: “Cost-efficiency, convenience and sustainability are the three big priorities for fleets right now. When using many service providers, it is always a challenge to get the maximum effect on each of those priorities. We understand this is a key pain point for fleet owners and operators, which is why we’ve evolved Total Tyre Care into Fleetcare, an integrated solution for all tyre and fleet management needs.

3. Save time

Fleetcare also saves you valuable time and resources by digitising the entire administration processes, and ensuring it is standard across your entire operation. In practice, Fleetcare ensures you are able to optimise your daily schedules and planning, save time on the road and efficiently communicate with your drivers what’s going on. You’ll quickly come to trust Fleetcare’s smart maintenance schedules, and realise the benefits of having a single mobility partner.

 

4. Support fleet compliance

Fleetcare’s proactive maintenance and frequent inspections will keep your fleet’s tyres within legal requirements, and ensure you have the right tyres for each application and road condition. You also have the option to choose from Bridgestone’s retreading and casing management service (with BASys), as well as automated and remote tachograph downloads, archiving, and analysis. This offers you full visibility of the driving and rest times, and lets you take proactive measures as and when they are needed. If you want complete transparency of all data and processes through centralised systems and proactive asset management, then look no further: Fleetcare is the answer.

 

5. Ensure safety and security

Significantly, Fleetcare has been designed with your drivers and vehicles safety and security in mind. We recognise how important it is for you to enjoy reliable tyre performance under any (and all) conditions, especially as tyres are the only part of your vehicle(s) touching the road. Fortunately Fleetcare delivers. In fact, it goes further, as it also offers predictive tyre care via 24/7 asset tracking and camera solutions, and real-time vehicle diagnostics.

 

6. Build a more sustainable future

Fleetcare is also about advancing technologies and solutions that actively preserve the environment for future generations. This is achieved by offering tyres with leading durability and fuel performance, giving tyres multiple lives through Bandag retread solutions, and proactive tyre care, which ensures better tyre performance and a lower environmental impact. But Fleetcare also delivers greener driving through coaching, route optimisation for minimal CO2 emissions and better electric vehicle management. In practice, this includes real-time pressure monitoring and data-driven tyre selection giving you the ability to report the precise carbon footprint reduction achieved by your fleet’s tyres.
