Silvey relaunches Miles Monitor fleet management solution  

Silvey Fleet has introduced a new version of its Miles Monitor fleet management solution, complete with enhanced features to help fleets reduce or control spend. 

The new Miles Monitor app automatically captures mileage and monitors driver behaviour

The new Miles Monitor app automatically captures mileage and monitors driver behaviour which, together with fuel spend reporting and data consolidation, gives in-depth insight into fleet activity, enhancing management.  

“Miles Monitor deals with mileage claims, expense claims, fuel spend monitoring, vehicle tracking and compliance requirements,” said managing director of Silvey Fleet, Miriam James. “This saves time on admin, helps ensure H&S obligations are met and substantially reduces costs. Our new app completes the picture, creating a total fleet management solution.”  

The new Auto mileage capture function has been designed to be quick and easy to implement and automatically records journeys, which are submitted and loaded to the driver’s online account. For company cars and grey fleet vehicles, the driver can specify their working hours, and journeys within this timeframe are automatically recorded.  

“Capturing accurate journey data gives fleet managers complete visibility of every business trip taken by their drivers,” outlined James. “Data from other existing telematics systems can also be integrated and viewed on Miles Monitor, so journey information for all drivers can be viewed in one place.” 

The new driver behaviour monitoring helps fleet managers meet their duty of care for drivers in their fleet, ensuring their safety whilst driving for the business. Drivers are monitored for speed, acceleration, braking patterns, cornering and phone usage for each journey. They receive a feedback score while the fleet manager has visibility of all drivers’ behaviour, which allows them to address any potential risks to their fleet.

Silvey Fleet’s new app also allows all fuel spend data to be consolidated and displayed on Miles Monitor. If drivers use a fuel card, fleet managers can use the system to access fuel spend data from their supplier. Drivers who buy fuel and claim for mileage can upload their petrol receipts via the app.  

“Having all mileage, fuel costs and driver behaviour data in one place provides unparalleled accurate, in-depth reporting on vehicles, journeys made, miles driven, fuel spend MPG and CO2 – giving a total overview of the fleet,” finished Miriam James. “This unprecedented level of reporting gives fleet managers the information they need to reduce fuel costs and their carbon footprint as well as steer their fleet strategy and manage driver performance.”
