FAQs

AusFleet can manage light vehicles, heavy plant and small items such as brush cutters, chainsaws and whipper-snippers. Current clients manage toilet blocks, playgrounds, trailers, compressors, tow bars and small tools as well as the more standard fleet items.

Aus-e-Fleet FBT calculates taxable value, reportable benefit and FBT payable, using statutory and operating cost methods on a driver and vehicle basis. It can take into account employee contributions, pool car use and non-business related accessories.

The module provides a forecast end of year assessment based on the information available at the time, and highlights those vehicles which are under the target kilometres set for that item so that action can be taken to increase utilisation and thus reduce FBT liability.

To simplify FBT reporting, logs entry facilities are provided in the fleet and hire modules, plus on-line logs entry is available as part of the Aus-e-Fleet suite of browser-based, add-on modules. This can be invaluable where the fleet department serves many customers, either internal or external, all of whom are required to submit logs.

This depends on several factors including the modules required, nature of installation and number of concurrent users. For this reason it’s impossible to provide a typical figure as installations have ranged from under $20,000 to over $100,000. Our packages include licensing, installation, configuration, on-site training, project management, electronic user manual and warranty.

AusFleet is supported for the first year at no additional cost.

Annual support options are available for further years and provide regular updates, maintenance, discounts on tailored developments, client management and ongoing training among other advantages, giving you ongoing service and latest versions year after year.

Please do ensure you are comparing apples with apples.

It's less about the fleet size than the fleet value. Our clients range from having fewer than ten to several thousand items all see a benefit from running AusFleet. You need to ask yourself:

Do you wish to retain control of your valuable assets?

Will your investment in professionally managing your fleet, with the resource advantages that automation offers, be worthwhile?

Will it allow you and your staff to do more productive work?

Do you need to meet health and safety and audit requirements?

Do you need a secure process to replace your old card system?

Will better management of your workshop, FBT and disposals provide a return on your investment?

Do you wish to accrue fleet costs and report and/or invoice them?

If you answer "yes" to these types of questions, then you should probably consider AusFleet.

Yes, the Maintenance and Workshop modules have comprehensive options for service scheduling and repair management. Scheduling is based on odometer/hour meter and/or time. Full workshop functionality provides automatic generation of job cards with requirement and parts allocated, timesheets, sublets, transport, cost accrual, links to inventory etc.

AusFleet’s Service Matrix also manages warranty services and allows you to view a service history on screen, including any missed services, just like the manufacturers handbook.

AusFleet can automatically allocate requirements and parts to each job, based on regimes and sequence and the costs, including sublets and personnel time recorded in timesheets, accrues to the job.

The entire repair and maintenance history for each item is retained even after disposal and each individual job can be viewed in its original form.
