TomTom Telematics and transport management software specialist OBS Logistics have launched a new vehicle checking solution for haulage and logistics operators, helping to capture accurate information for Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) and Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) compliance records.

The ACLIDUS Vehub mobile app helps drivers to check blind spot indicators, cameras, tyres and fuel  on TomTom Pro 8275 Truck driver terminals. 

It was developed using the TomTom Telematics .connect API and works in tandem with the Webfleet fleet management system.

The combined solution can be configured to help meet a wide range of needs, including signature capture, paperless delivery notes, automatic allocations and route templates, while also helping to reduce costly empty running.

It is designed to help fleet operators to move from bronze to silver membership of FORS.

FORS promotes operational best practice through a focus on safety, efficiency and environmental protection. OBS Logistics, together with 85 further FORS Associates, provide members with discounted products and services, alongside a raft of further benefits that come with FORS accreditation.
