Grey Fleet

Grey Fleet: is this a blind spot for your organisation and workers?

By November 21, 2022 February 1st, 2023 No Comments

LBM Fleet is excited to announce our new grey fleet solution.

The use of grey fleet happens every day across most organisations and whilst there is usually administration around the reimbursement, there are limited solutions to easily manage the fleet, and its drivers and the organisation’s road safety responsibilities. Whilst road safety management of standard car fleets is generally well regulated and well understood, this is not the case for grey fleets.

What is Grey Fleet?

If you haven’t heard of grey fleet before, it is essentially vehicles used for work that are not owned or managed by the driver’s employer. As a result of the pandemic and the modern hybrid workplace, more organisations are increasing their use of grey fleet. This is raising concerns about managing the safety, compliance, operational and reputational risk from their use.
