Out all day. Kept very little.
Your vehicles are on the road all day and the fleet still earns little. We follow one vehicle through one working day, from what it earns to what you keep, and show you which vehicles earn their place.
Where one vehicle's money goes
A sample vehicle through one working day: out on its drops, driven, fuelled, serviced and parked. Every figure is a sample. Yours come from your own files.
- What the vehicle earns48.000
- Driver16.000
- Fuel7.500
- Lease or depreciation9.000
- Maintenance and downtime4.500
- Insurance2.200
- Idle hours6.800
- What you keep2.000
Four numbers, one each
Each part of the working day has one number that tells you how your vehicle is doing. A sample operator, read the way we read you.
Sample
- Drop
Drops per vehicle a day
YOU 28PAR 36
A vehicle that finishes its day with spare room still costs you a full day. Lease, driver and insurance run on the clock, not on the drop.
- Driver
Hours worked out of hours paid
YOU 64%PAR 85%
You pay your driver for the shift and the shift holds waiting time. Every paid hour that earns nothing sits inside your cost per vehicle.
- Garage
Days off the road a month
YOU 4PAR 1
A vehicle in the workshop earns nothing and its lease runs on. Each day off the road is a day you pay twice.
- Road
Cost per kilometre, BD
YOU 0.210PAR 0.150
Fuel, tyres and servicing grow with every kilometre. A long route across thin zones lifts your cost per kilometre above what the drops pay.
You will know these
- You renew leases in bulk and cannot say which vehicles earn their place.
- Your drivers cost more each month while drops per shift stay flat.
- Fuel and workshop bills sit in different books from the drops they serve.
- You add vehicles for the peak and they wait the rest of the week.
Four moves on one vehicle
We price one vehicle for one day
Payroll, lease, fuel, workshop and insurance go against the drops it completed. You see what each vehicle contributes after every cost it carries.
We close the idle hours
We read the shift against the drops, vehicle by vehicle. Your drivers fill the hours you already pay for.
We size your fleet to the work
Owning, leasing and outsourcing are tested at your volumes and your cost of capital. You carry a core fleet and hire the rest for the peak.
We set your renewals
Each lease and each vehicle gets a keep, swap or sell decision with its cash effect beside it. You walk into the renewal knowing your floor.
On your desk
- A contribution statement for every vehicle, after every cost it carries.
- Drops per driver shift and paid hours used, by zone.
- Lease, own and outsource compared at your volumes.
- The size of your core fleet and the capacity beyond it.
- A renewal schedule with the cash effect of each vehicle.
What owners ask us
- Is it better to lease or own my vehicles?
- Whichever costs you less per vehicle at your volumes and your cost of capital. We compare leasing, owning and outsourcing on your figures, and our fleet lease or own tool gives you a first read.
- What do I send you?
- Your lease schedules, fuel-card statements, workshop bills, payroll and dispatch export. We tell you which vehicles we price first.
- Do I need vehicle telematics to start?
- Dispatch records, fuel and workshop data build your first statement. Telematics, if you run it, sharpens the idle-hours picture.
We hold a fleet to a return
Our founder set the money logic behind a blended last-mile fleet of about 1,000 vehicles at BaladiMart, part of Al Baladi Group. We hold your fleet to the same standard, vehicle by vehicle, against the return it earns you.
