A major investment of around £1.2 million is being rolled out by Pendragon Contracts to upgrade its global IT platforms.

The strategy aims to provide increased online functionality and accessibility to customers, ensuring more effective reporting and transparency for fleet managers.

The investment has been designed to provide one central touch point for customers to access real-time data online.

As a result, they can download detailed management information for creating reports or for forecasting purposes on areas such as spend, mileage projection, drivers and P11D details.

Neal Francis, managing director of Pendragon Contracts, said: “We are constantly reviewing our systems and processes to ensure our communication and reporting to clients is as effective as possible.

“This substantial investment will ensure that our IT infrastructure plays a significant part in supporting our dedicated account management team and means customers and their drivers are assisted every step of the way.”
