A series of upgrades have been made to fleet management platform ODO.
The changes include a simplified sign up process, workflow configuration, SMS support, changes to its disposals module, and enhancements to its allocation and de-allocation process.
ODO, which launched in January, runs in the Oracle cloud,meaning businesses can manage their vehicles and drivers on the go using any kind of device.
Business owners, human resource managers, finance directors and fleet managers can simply log in and start managing their vehicles and drivers, keeping track of vehicle and driver data including fuel consumption, mileage, servicing and maintenance, with automatic alerts and reminders covering important issues.
ODO general manager Gordon Lyster said the upgrades were made with ease of use in mind.
He said: "The simplified sign up process is exactly that, we asked ourselves, could this be made even easier? If someone has a headache with fleet and driver related admin, we think it is important for them to be able to get online and deal with that as quickly as possible.
"The changes the team have made to workflow configuration are also all about helping people get out from under the hassle of fleet and driver admin as quickly as possible. This has been bolstered by the addition of SMS support."
Lyster said ODO had also considered the needs of grey fleet managers.
He said: "Feedback from our users, especially around the use of employee's own vehicles for business journeys, has told us that firms want to be able to react quickly and easily to changes of circumstance.
"With grey fleet it is important to have an easy way for employees to notify that they've changed a car and for the fleet manager to be able to know that it is taxed, MOT'd and insured for business use.
"With that in mind, our technical team have streamlined the allocation and de-allocation process so that vehicles can be securely added and removed even more quickly than before."
