The Association of Fleet Professionals (AFP) will launch a new consultancy service later this year, designed to make use of the expertise of its members.

AFP Fleet Intelligence is being introduced to meet growing demand for fleet expertise, explained AFP chair Paul Hollick.

“We are approached regularly by various parties who are looking for expert fleet input, whether that means a small business that needs a couple of hours of advice about selling new EV solutions to corporate fleets, or a dealer group or major manufacturer who want to set up or adapt an entire corporate fleet programme,” Hollick said.

“In the past, we’ve handled this on an informal basis but AFP Fleet Intelligence is designed to create a more structured approach that will enable those needing fleet knowledge to find the right consultant and for AFP members to monetise their abilities and experience more easily.”

Expected to be online in th fourth quarter of 2024, AFP Fleet Intelligence will be based around a microsite linked to www.theafp.co.uk and on which participating fleet operator members can list their professional biographies, experience and skills.

“This is a new industry service that promotes the abilities of fleet professionals while helping support everyone from start-ups to existing suppliers with their strategies and products – by sharing knowledge, it has the potential to fundamentally improve the landscape of the fleet industry in the short, medium and long-term,” Hollick added.

“Really, for the first time, this positions the AFP as a provider of fleet expertise rather than a supporting body to fleet professionals. However, it is a natural extention of our activities, we believe, helping matchmake people who need fleet skills and members who are able to provide them.”
