FAQS
- Total Cost of Ownership tools provide a comprehensive view of all costs associated with vehicle ownership, including purchase price, depreciation, fuel, maintenance, insurance, and disposal value. This helps managers make more informed decisions by understanding the true long-term costs rather than just focusing on initial purchase price.
- The tools can reveal how seemingly expensive upfront investments (like electric vehicles) might actually be more cost-effective over the vehicle’s lifetime due to lower operating costs.
- By tracking and analysing all cost components, managers can identify areas where expenses are higher than expected and take corrective action. For example, if maintenance costs for certain vehicle models are consistently high, this might influence future purchasing decisions.
- Total Cost of Ownership tools help optimize vehicle replacement timing by showing when maintaining aging vehicles becomes more expensive than replacing them.
- Our Total Cost of Ownership tools often include environmental impact calculations, helping businesses understand and reduce their carbon footprint while complying with emerging regulations.
- They can model different scenarios incorporating incentives, and regulatory changes that might affect future costs.
- These tools help predict and plan for future expenses, reducing the risk of unexpected costs that could impact business operations.
- They can also help identify potential reliability issues across vehicle types or manufacturers by tracking maintenance patterns.
- Knowing the total cost of ownership will help managers understand and see residual values across different vehicle makes and models, enabling smarter purchasing decisions that maximize return on investment
- By analysing historical depreciation data, managers can identify vehicles that hold their value better and time their sales optimally to minimize losses
- This knowledge helps in negotiating better lease terms or making informed decisions between leasing and purchasing
- Our Whole Life Cost tool helps you analyse operational data to match vehicles precisely to their intended use, preventing both under and over-specification of vehicles
- The tools can compare different powertrains (diesel, petrol, electric, hybrid) against specific duty cycles to determine the most cost-effective option for each application
- This targeted approach ensures each vehicle in the fleet is the most economical choice for its specific role, rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach
