The integration combines decades of LCV, HGV, electric vehicle (EV) and specialist equipment fleet management expertise into one business.
Rivus Fleet Solutions was formerly BT Fleet, which was acquired by parent company Aurelius Investments in 2019. Its fleet management operations have supported the vehicle maintenance needs of critical fleets such as BT Openreach, the AA, the Post Office, E. ON, National Grid, DEFRA and St John Ambulance.
Pullman Fleet Solutions, also acquired by asset management firm Aurelius in November 2020, was the largest independent provider of commercial HGV maintenance and fleet management in the UK for household brands such as Tesco, Morrisons and Wilko.
David Myers, CEO of Rivus, commented: “We are merging the talent of our teams and sharing expertise across one organisation, which makes us a clear choice for businesses looking to manage service, maintain and repair their fleets through a single provider – whatever their fleet size or type. It also brings with it great career opportunities for our internal teams.”
Rivus will have more than 1,300 employees, manage circa 200,000 service bookings each year and operate from 80 sites nationwide through its LCV and HGV combined garage network, with over 500 Rivus Approved Garage Partners and a UK wide team of mobile technicians.
