How it works

From the source to the receiving team.

  1. 01

    Define the operating requirement

    Agree the fleet boundary, duty, service objectives and decision timetable.

  2. 02

    Assemble viable packages

    Review vehicle, body, infrastructure, service and funding offers.

  3. 03

    Test the economics

    Examine utilisation, cost, downtime and residual sensitivities.

  4. 04

    Prepare the approval

    Deliver the recommendation and conditions, with a plan to review subsequent performance.

Scope & evaluation

Define a useful result.

Use the details below to assess fit with your workflow.

01 Evidence requirements5 inputs
  • Routes, loads and operating schedules
  • Fleet condition and maintenance history
  • Vehicle, body and service quotations
  • Energy and infrastructure requirements
  • Funding and investment criteria
02 Evaluation measures4 measures
  • Comparable and confirmed offers
  • Material conditions resolved before approval
  • Sensitivity of service and cost outcomes
  • Actual operation against the approved case
03 Scope and outputs in detail

The programme starts with loads, routes, schedules and required availability. It evaluates complete packages, including bodies, energy, charging or fuelling, maintenance and financing. The approved case can then be compared with actual operating results.

Outputs to assess

  • A comparable operating account
  • Cost and availability scenarios
  • An investment recommendation with conditions

Scope, permissions, integrations and acceptance criteria are agreed before work begins. Your authorised team retains the institutional decision.

Questions

Can different powertrains and ownership models be compared?

Yes, where they can meet the defined duty and suitable evidence is available. Costs and responsibilities are represented consistently for each viable option.

How are emissions benefits treated?

Any included estimate states its boundary, activity data, factors and assumptions. The engagement defines the methodology and specialist review required for the intended use.

Can the programme monitor the fleet after purchase?

A follow-on scope can compare actual use, cost and availability with the approved investment case using the organisation’s authorised operating records.
