Quartix is one of the Chaps
Chaps, a Cambridgeshire heating and mechanical services company , has equipped its transport fleet of its 44 cars and vans with Quartix real-time vehicle tracking and is already benefiting from improved efficiency, which in turn is making savings for the business.
Raine Holmes, finance manager, said: "For example, car drivers pay back their personal mileage, which the system records.
"Vans are provided to Chaps employees for business use only, and private use is not allowed. On-site drivers are required to fill in timesheets, and the contract managers are able to confirm these details through the system.
"Of course, if we had a tax inspection we would have to prove they weren’t using the vans for personal use, and the system enables us to do just that."
Chaps has opted to connect to the tracking service using Quartix’s flexible pay-as-you-go solution and intend to switching to its more cost effective leasing/purchase product when financial constraints allow.
Chaps is not only pleased with the system’s reliability but also Quartix’s after- sales service.
Ms Holmes added: "You ring or email and they get back to you straight away. Everything happens exactly as you would expect of a professional company. They are a very good team, indeed."
Andy Walters, Quartix managing director, said: "Chaps is a highly respected company in the Cambridge area, and their white and blue vans are a common sight in and around the city. We are delighted to be associated with this successful company and hope to continue providing them with good service for years to come."
