Freeway Fleet Systems has announced a series of enhancements to its apps that improve the approach to defect rectification and compliance. Among them is the launch of a new defect management programme.
It speeds workflow and gives fingertip access to an array of defect-related data, including historical records of previous work and parts.
Aiding workshop staff, the app provides real-time access to documents concerning the vehicle in question, including parts, manuals and diagnostic sheets. It also allows identification of the parts related to a defect, enabling them to be issued directly or requested from stores.
Freeway is unique as an all-in-one defect, schedule, document and asset management system used by many of the UK’s leading bus operators.
Adding the historical data already in the system to the tablets that it utilises, and extending part issues and document access to maintenance technicians, was a natural progression for the software.
Says MD Patrick Tandy: “As vehicle inspectors began using the app on the workshop floor, they immediately recognised the potential for the system and recommended these enhancements.”
