Police Scotland and the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service are rolling out the latest national fleet management system to help improve efficiency while reducing administration and costs.

Both organisations will be using the Tranman touchscreen software from business process services provider Civica in their workshops across Scotland, allowing data to be easily input by technicians directly into the system, giving the central teams visibility of current availability and costs immediately.

Stewart Taylor, national fleet manager at Police Scotland, explained: “We needed a state-of-the-art system, using the latest technology, to enable us to standardise processes quickly across the new organisation and ensure

maximum efficiency in our operations. Tranman proved to be the system that could not only deliver that now, but as a strategic partner over the long term.”

Civica’s experience of successfully merging systems together, integrating multiple and large datasets into a single database while driving out savings, was a key factor in the decision for both organisations. Civica has already carried out similar projects for Norfolk Constabulary, Suffolk Constabulary, Kent Police and Essex Police, and most recently a shared system between the three Yorkshire police forces.

Civica now provides national fleet management systems to all three emergency services in Scotland, including the Scottish Ambulance Service, as well as half of the 32 Scottish local authorities.
