Company vehicle transport: book it and track it

Company vehicle transport means moving a vehicle from one point to another by road: between two sites, to a workshop, at delivery or at return. Dadycar lets you book a transport and find every transfer in a history filterable by vehicle, type, dates and status.

What the Transports module brings

  • A request, not a message thread: the transport is booked from the software, attached to a vehicle in the fleet.
  • A filterable history: vehicle, type, start date, end date, status.
  • In the same place as everything else: the vehicle record, its site, its contracts and its documents are not in another tool.

The movements nobody traces

  • The vehicle is not where it should be: a fleet spread over twenty or so sites moves vehicles every week, with no register.
  • The return from the workshop drifts: the vehicle is repaired, nobody knows when or how it comes back to its site.
  • Delivery and return are settled by phone: the vehicles entering and leaving the fleet move with no written trace.

What you get with Dadycar

The Transports module serves one purpose: that every vehicle movement is requested, tracked and findable.

Book a transport

The request is created from the module, attached to the vehicle concerned, with its start date and its end date.

Transport history

Every transfer stays readable, including several months later, with no old messages to dig up.

Vehicle, type, date and status filters

You isolate what you are looking for: one precise vehicle, a period, or everything not yet closed.

Attached to the vehicle's file

The vehicle being moved keeps its record, its site, its assigned driver and its documents in the same software.

Your suppliers in the same place

The supplier directory gathers garages, body shops, roadworthiness test centres and leasing companies, next to your transports.

Vehicles entering and leaving the fleet

Delivery and return tracking describes the vehicle's cycle; the transport is its physical movement.

How it works

  1. 1Book the transport. You choose the vehicle, the type of transfer and the dates from the Transports module.
  2. 2Track its status. The history shows what is under way and what is finished, with your listed suppliers (supplier management).
  3. 3Realign the fleet after the movement. The vehicle finds its site and its assignment again in the software (employees and sites).

Your questions before getting started

  • “We have no dedicated driver for transfers.” The module traces the movement, whoever carries it out: an employee, a garage or an outside provider.
  • “Do I need a device?” No. A transport is booked and tracked without telematics; a GPS-OBD device or a connected vehicle then adds the position and the trips.
  • “How long does it take to start?” As soon as the fleet is imported, a transport can be booked on any vehicle.

Frequently asked questions

What is company vehicle transport?

It is moving a vehicle by road, driven from a departure point to an arrival point, without loading it onto a truck. In a fleet, it mainly covers transfers between sites, round trips to a workshop and delivery or return movements.

What is the difference between vehicle transport and jockeying?

Vehicle transport means moving a vehicle from one point to another, often over a significant distance. Jockeying refers rather to short, repeated movements on one site or between nearby sites. Both are tracked the same way in the Transports module.

When does a fleet need a vehicle transport?

Four situations come back: rebalancing vehicles between sites, bringing a vehicle to the workshop or collecting it, taking delivery of a new vehicle, and bringing back a vehicle at the end of its contract for its return.

How do you track a vehicle transport in fleet management software?

By booking every transfer rather than organising it by message. In Dadycar, the transport is attached to a vehicle in the fleet, with a type, a start date, an end date and a status, then stays readable in the history.

Does vehicle transport require a telematics device?

No. Booking and tracking a transport depend on no on-board hardware. On a vehicle fitted with a GPS-OBD device or connected through its manufacturer, the position and the trips complete the tracking, without being necessary to the module.
