15 July 2008

Leasedrive Velo, one of the UK’s largest independent privately-owned vehicle management groups in the UK, has been named ‘Fleet Management Company 08/09’ by the Institute of Transport Management (ITM).

Commercial director, Roddy Graham said: “We are thrilled to have been recognised by ITM for three successive years. In 2006, we were accredited as a ‘Recommended Industry Supplier’ and last year we won the ‘Independent Vehicle Management Company 07/08’ award. Now we have received this top award as ‘Fleet Management Company 08/09’. This follows an in-depth research programme conducted by ITM’s accreditation team into current offerings in the fleet sector in the UK. Not only does this award reflect the quality customer service provided by our staff but underlines the fact that we never rest on our laurels.

“Our vision is to continually strive to deliver the highest quality bespoke vehicle management service and demonstrably add value to our clients through investment in people, world-class fleet management systems and totally-integrated innovative solutions.”

Commenting on the award, Mr. Patrick Sheedy, media & PR director at the ITM, said: “Our research into the current offerings in the UK fleet sector has been very thorough and it is with great confidence that we continue to endorse Leasedrive Velo and recommend this company to our members and anyone else who has an interest in the services of the transport industry. It is with very good reason that Leasedrive Velo is one of the UK’s foremost fleet management businesses.

“Leasedrive Velo has nurtured a strong customer service ethos from its inception and this shows through at every level. The company has shaped a product and service portfolio of bespoke solutions which are delivered by a dedicated fleet management service team, so that Leasedrive Velo clients are assured of a rapid response to their needs and a quality service from start to finish.”

The citation for ‘Fleet Management Company 08/09’ stated: Following the conclusion of its in-depth research programme into this area of the transport industry, the Institute of Transport Management can announce the success of Leasedrive Velo in winning the ‘Fleet Management Company 08/09’ award. This company thus continues to impress the Institute’s accreditation team, having scooped fleet sector awards several times previously - including last year’s ‘Independent Vehicle Management Company 07/08’.
