A new service that enables businesses to tap into the knowledge and skills of experienced fleet operators is launching this week from the Association of Fleet Professionals (AFP).
Called AFP Fleet Intelligence and available via a microsite, it’s designed to meet growing demand for fleet knowhow, while providing a new channel for members to make their skills more widely available.
Paul Hollick, chair at the AFP, said: “We are increasingly approached by organisations looking for services of this kind, and Fleet Intelligence means we can matchmake those businesses with experienced AFP fleet operator members in a structured manner.
“The microsite lists the skills and experience of each consultant, enabling businesses to identify the right expert for their needs.”
He added: “For the first time, this service positions us as a provider of fleet expertise rather than a supporting body to fleet professionals, and we see it as a natural extension of our activities.”
AFP Fleet Intelligence is aimed at all size fleets – from start-ups to long-established businesses – and will be able to provide support on everything from strategies to products and services.
“The service is open to all, be it a small business that needs a couple of hours of advice about an element of their fleet, through to a major service provider who wants to research the viability of a new product or service. The expertise we offer can meet just about any requirement of this type,” Hollick continued.
The microsite can be found at www.theafp.co.uk/fleet-intelligence and the cost for consultancy is £100 per hour, £350 for a half day, and £700 for a full day.
Experts initially listed include Chris Connors, Stuart Conway, Martin Edgecox, Debbie Floyde, Julie Madoui, Matt Neale, Elaine Pringle and Rob Simister.
