Notice Title

CPU 7040 Fleet Services Management Software System

Notice Description

The supplier shall be responsible for the provision, implementation, support, and maintenance of a comprehensive Fleet Management System (FMS) to replace the Council's existing solution. The system must support the full lifecycle management of fleet assets and be delivered as a secure, cloud-hosted, web-based platform. The Authority's Fleet Management System (FMS) is used to manage all our fleet vehicles and assets as well as some externally owned assets, allowing us to schedule and control periodic maintenance and inspections, plan maintenance events, manage unplanned maintenance repairs and provide a full audit trail. The system also controls jobs in our three workshops, including raising job cards, recording hours works by technicians and parts used, meaning NCC are looking for a workshop centric system.
