We support the road haulage industry with all aspects of tachograph analysis, from small owner driver, to the larger fleet market. Based in the South West of England our customers are in all the corners of the British Isles, we offer a flexible service to to transport managers, small, medium and large fleets who require the latest reporting on all common driving rules, infringements and Working Time Directive legislation.
Tradition "Paper" type charts
Analysis begins with simply posting the charts to us although we can accept scanned images where you use your own scanner. When analysis is complete (usually within the week) the charts, printed reports and driver letters are returned by first class post, recorded delivery for your peace of mind. Alternatively the reports can be accessed directly by you, saving postage time and storage of paper copies.
Digital Data Files
Simply supply your data from the drivers' cards or vehicle units to us either by e-mail directly to us or we can give you access to your data on the web where you can have instantaneous analysis. The results can be accessed immediately or a hard copy can be supplied for your records. It is up to you. Should you have a mixture of digital and paper chart media
We can deal with both types of records and merge the results to help make the transition to digital as painless as possible. Obviously there is a time delay on merging the two technologies because of the 28 days retention rule but this can be shortened by scanning the charts and sending the copy to us electronically. We operate a Siemans on-line programme capable of supporting both analogue and digital instruments. This also has the option of keeping WTD records and the archiving of vehicle and driver data and is acceptable to the enforcement agencies as one of their preferred systems.
Costs
You will find our pricing extremely competitive! We charge per chart or digital record and will also advise you on the most cost effective solution to your analysis needs. Should you wish to talk to us or require a quotation please use our contact form for more information.
