Our Service

ADT is a Brake* award-winning fleet and risk management provider, with extensive experience — from both client-facing and agency-side perspectives — across a multitude of different industries. Be it risk audit and assessments, ‘grey’ fleet management or license and document checking, we deliver bespoke, one-stop fleet management solutions to a myriad of prestigious clients — such as Allianz and Guide Dogs for the Blind — across a range of different industries and sectors. And with existing clients such as UCB Pharma, Merck Serono, Basilea Pharmaceuticals, Actelion Pharmaceuticals, and Merz Pharma , our service has already been honed towards the specific needs of our pharma-industry clients. Indeed pharma and healthcare is where we’re most at home Critically, the risks facing companies and drivers alike are now higher than ever. The Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 inaugurates a score of additional responsibilities for employing companies and in the worst example — as reported by Fleet News in February 2011 — the first UK firm to be prosecuted under the legislation was fined 116% of gross turnover and went into liquidation as a result of their negligence. Yet while the threats are more real than ever, we don’t believe that facing up to them should be difficult. And this is where ADT’s one-stop fleet management services really come to the fore. Conclusively, not only do we assist our clients in acquiring 100% legal compliance, but we take the strain in other areas too, from the tedious but necessary task of Document and License Checking to Bespoke Driver Training. Beyond the rhetoric our services also add real, bottom-line value to our clients and the results are already in to prove it. For example, in the case of a large fleet like that of Apollo, they saved £703,000 in a two year period. In addition, ADT customers typically see their accident rates reduced by 50% within two years of adopting our service and fuel cost savings of 15-20% per year — through the encouragement of more economical driving behaviours — are also typically achievable. Far from being the exception, such savings are the rule. Simply put, ADT worries so you don’t have to. *Brake is the UK’s largest and most recognised road safety charity.

The ADT Way

ADT is a professional services firm with a value-driven mission. Indeed we passionately believe that the most effective of solutions are borne out of the most personal of approaches. For us, three key values define us best. Vital Services, Personal Solutions and Enduring Results. Indeed, these three simple yet defining values permeate every level of engagement with our clients. And whilst our methods are tested and proven, our customer approach remains fresh and reliably personal. Crucially, we believe that these values should deliver tangible outcomes for our customers beyond the rhetoric. Which is why we believe in regular, face-to-face interfacing with our clients, case-by-case diagnosis and finely targeted solutions and services. If you do decide to work with us, we can also promise to maintain, monitor and review your services in a way that ensures sustainable and verifiable long-term improvements to your fleet safety. Perhaps that’s why Brake has recognised a number of our customers with Fleet Management Awards. And why we too have won awards from Brake on four separate occasions.

Our People

Here at ADT we passionately believe in multifaceted, cross-industry perspectives. Indeed, that’s what makes the ADT team special. Thus, not only do we bring extensive experience across the fleet management sector, but crucially, we also passionately believe that client-side experience is invaluable in delivering time-tested solutions to our customers. Accordingly, we bring together experts from a wide range of industry perspectives and backgrounds. Be it agency-side fleet management or client-facing HR and operations. In fact, some client-side professionals have been so impressed with our services that they’ve elected to join us. For example, ADT’s Director of Research and Customer Experience, Dr. Jim Golby, joined us after a 30 year career for a global pharmaceutical company and did so at least partly because of the results we produced for him in industry. Dr. Golby is a previous winner of the CIPD Management Research Prize — the only individual outside academia ever to have won this coveted award — and has also been the recipient of the Brake Fleet Manager of the Year award.
