Highlights
Optimisation of fleet management processes
The three-part FleetService-Professional service model provides fleet managers with an all-in service aimed at all corporate fleet management processes.
Fully transparency for fleet managers
Fleet clients have access to a comprehensive reporting system. Fleet managers can keep track of all key vehicle data. Internal structures and processes as well as claims histories are consequently transparent.
Unitary insurance cover for fleets based abroad
Insurance cover for vehicle pools in other countries is provided to companies with large fleets through our international insurance programmes.
Permanent control over proprietary fleets
The web-based ‘KControl’ controlling application keeps companies fully in the picture and in control of their own fleets.
HDI FleetService-Professional allows fleet clients to access an integrated service model. The focus is on risk-and safety-related fleet analysis and the development of specific risk prevention action plans. HDI provides comprehensive and detailed advice on issues for fleets/vehicle pools and supports clients in their negotiations with service providers. Professional claims management enables the main types of damage to be pinpointed and loss prevention action to be identified. Training programmes for drivers and fleet managers are also provided as an additional service. Special safety-and-security-related analyses as well as specific fire-and-theft prevention action plans are provided for car dealerships to round off this service offering.
In the event of a claim, HDI’s claims management teams can be reached 365 days a year around the clock. Service professionals handle everything from a pick-up/recovery service, if the vehicle is no longer roadworthy, through to repairs scheduling. Thanks to a partnership with more than 500 service points throughout Germany, HDI’s claims experts can monitor the entire repairs process. This delivers high standards of repair quality, and keeps costs under control. If HDI handles the entire claims management process, the fleet operator’s administrative inputs are minimal. Provision of the web-based ‘KControl’ controlling application gives fleet managers full transparency on all sections of their fleets.

Alterations to driving times and rest periods
New rules apply to professional drivers’ driving times and rest periods as a result of a new EU Regulation. The first portion of these regulations has already come into force; the second portion (incorporating further changes) is due to come into force by 2 March 2016.
