Hovis rolls out telematics solution in multi-year deal29 July 2015

Bakery business Hovis has signed a multi-year deal with telematics provider Microlise to deploy the solution across its 450 vehicles and 190 trailers.

As well as the full telematics system, Hovis is deploying Microlise's Proof of Delivery technology and operating this with DriveTab, a ruggedised tablet device, which has sign-on glass and image capture functionality.

"Hovis is committed to exceptional service levels to customers, and the investment in Microlise telematics and Proof of Delivery will support that aim," says Alison Davies, head of logistics for Hovis.

"Microlise is a best in class solution and we are delighted to be partnering with a company that understands our business and will deliver a solution that will be integral to our transport operation."

Hovis will also be using the Remote Digital Tachograph Download product, to manage driver hour compliance and cut the administration required around tachograph data collection.
