Asset Management for Transport Industry

Asset management planning aims to ensure the well-being and prosperity of the fleet owners and provide the services to support the assets that they need every day.

Assets must be identified and recorded in an asset register at the time of acquisition to enable decisions to be made based on reliable and up-to-date information. As part of our service, we compile and maintain an asset register for each of our clients. This allows us — in collaboration with each of our clients — to:

• Evaluate asset performance
• Trace assets for security and control purposes
• Assess risk profiles
• Assess the contribution made by the assets to service delivery objectives

Transport companies, fleet owners and manager use Agulhas to support quality, best practices, and ISO standards. Proper preventive maintenance protocols are documented and measured through the use of our Best-in-Class Enterprises Asset Management Solution. We thus support our clients to:

• Improve the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)
• Ensure Quality control
• Maintain the system to easily produce ISO documentation

When we compile a Fleet Asset Management Plan, we consider the two main issues that the plan must address:

• Firstly, determining the strategy for replacing vehicles to ensure optimum use based on the value for money principles.
• Secondly, optimising how the resources within the department can best be organised to deliver a properly equipped, innovative fleet to a modern standard.
