The Client

One of Europe's leading logistics organisations. Further to the award of a major extension to one of its signature accounts our client identified the need for support for additional temporary LGV driving labour. Temporary labour will be required to assist with the successful mobilisation of its extended core fleet operations at depots in the Midlands, Norfolk, Yorkshire and the South East.

Objective

Provide the client with a cost effective single invoice solution for the total supply of all temporary LGV driving labour requirements throughout the network.

Specifications

Daily supply volumes will range from between 35 to 50 LGV drivers across the network.

All LGV drivers must meet the specified criterion defined by the client and will be successfully inducted, trained and assessed prior to being engaged in employment.

How?

Haul-It Nationwide Ltd established a project team. The team led by one of our experienced operations professionals produced a project plan. In order to ensure contract delivery in line with our client's requirements we implemented our recruitment campaign and sourced a number of professional employment businesses to support our contract.

National advertising, selective regionalised exposure and the effective utilisation of our database of over 4000 LGV drivers provided a sufficient number of potential candidates. Interviews were conducted by our recruitment consultants and all successful applicants were thoroughly vetted prior to contract offer.

We identified a number of professional local employment businesses to assist with 'spot hire' booking requirements in each area. So as to ensure consistency in the quality control of supply we established a robust service level agreement with each supplier.

Working closely with our client's health and safety team we ensured that planned induction / training was co-ordinated for each driver prior to the mobilisation date.

All driver requirements are relayed to our office in Rugby, our operations team then ensures that the driver requirements for each site are fulfilled. Bookings confirmation is communicated to the client and using our Driver Management System (DMS) our client has complete real-time access to all bookings information on-line. Via desktop web access our client can place, cancel and /or edit bookings as well as access important management information including contract specific KPI reports.
