Fleet Assist has launched a new garage certification programme for its network of over 5,200 garages, plus 380 mobile units.

The certification provides evidence that the garage is part of Fleet Assist’s annual audit and includes checks such as facilities, technician capability, including EVs, and many other relevant parameters.

Certificates will be renewed annually for as long as they continue to be part of the network. Fleet Assist is encouraging garages to display it alongside other certificates of professional competency to provide customers with a visible reference that the garage is part of its network.

The Fleet Assist network is currently trusted by over 40 leasing companies to provide a range of SMR services to a combined fleet of over 1.3 million cars and vans that are on contract hire, rental, on salary sacrifice or subscription services.

“Our new certification programme aims to provide the benchmark for high achieving garages across the UK and ultimately provide peace of mind for drivers that their vehicle is being worked on by one of the UK’s leading SMR suppliers,” explained Nikos Kotrozos, Fleet Assist’s supply chain director.

“Our leasing customers and their customers in turn have responded very favourably to this certification initiative,” he added.
