Skylift goes with Masternaut

Masternaut Three X has won a contract to equip Lavendon UK’s Skylift vehicle mounted aerial lift fleet with its web-based vehicle tracking and mobile resource management technology.

The Masternaut system is intended to help Skylift optimise its customer service and performance management, by analysing and reducing mileage, improving route planning and gaining tighter management of drivers’ hours as well as see live fleet activity on screen. The company will also use Masternaut’s GreenerFleet; carbon footprint management tool that is claimed to actively reduce CO2 emissions as well as lowering fuel usage.

Masternaut’s VisuLive system, a powerful web-based application that provides visual information displayed on big screens and monitors, will be installed at Skylift’s national hire centre in Coventry..

John Weights, Skylift’s UK service manager says: “Masternaut will allow us to be more responsive to our customers as we will be able to provide precise details of Estimated Time of Arrival of vehicles on site as well as being able to streamline our fleet management. The system will give us much greater control over our assets and we will be able to standardise procedures, reduce wastage, improve health & safety, improve the management of drivers’ hours, reduce emissions and cut our fuel costs. The system will provide the real-time intelligence we need to gain a full overview of the fleet and how we utilise it.”

The web-based service is also intended to be a key element in Skylift’s TechX, internal accreditation programme,
