Work allocation changes
A tanker goes into the workshop and a drainage visit needs a different vehicle and driver. Keep the assignment with the job so the next person can find the details.
Fleet management software UK
Fleet management software for the UK working day.
A vehicle list tells you what you own. Running the fleet also means assigning tomorrow's work, giving drivers clear instructions and dealing with today's defects. Rivetway connects those jobs, people, vehicles and records in one place.

The operational problem
Stop rebuilding the day's work from calls, files and messages.
When a job changes vehicle or a driver finds a defect, the office needs the updated record and the reason for the change. A second spreadsheet rarely solves that handoff.
The office chases completion evidence
A customer asks what happened on site. Job updates, photographs and reports are more useful when they return to the same record as the instructions.
Vehicle admin becomes a separate job
Renewal dates, documents and defects still need attention while work is being booked. Connect them to the vehicle rather than relying on someone's memory.
How the workflow connects
From an office assignment to a record of what happened.
The driver sees their own work on a phone. The office retains the customer, vehicle and staff context needed to review it.

Scope and responsibility
Built to support your operation.
Rivetway organises the information your team records. Check its fit against your operation during the trial, including specialist equipment, reporting requirements and any systems you need to retain.
A working-day example
Two vehicle types, one job history.
For example, a drainage business may send a jetting van to investigate a blockage and book a tanker for the follow-up. Each visit needs clear instructions and evidence, even if the same office person plans both.
Keep the visit details together
Record the customer, site and job information before allocating work. The driver should be able to find the current task without searching through yesterday's messages.
Bring information back from site
Use the driver job workflow to record progress and supporting photographs. A job report gives the office a starting point for a customer update or follow-up visit.
Keep maintenance in view
A fault found on the van belongs to that vehicle's defect history. Workshop follow-up can continue alongside the job record instead of being buried in the customer conversation.

Before choosing software
What to check when choosing UK fleet software.
Try a complete job
Use a real job from booking to driver update and report. Check whether the office can understand the outcome without asking the driver to enter it twice.
Include the people who use it
Ask a driver and the person managing maintenance to test their own tasks. Unlimited users means you can include them without buying separate user seats.
Check specialist connections
If tracking hardware or a specialist finance system is essential, confirm the exact connection and coverage before relying on it. Module access alone does not establish that a provider is configured.

Still being developed or validated
Licensed HGV route guidance remains under development. Provider-backed tracking needs setup and validation; it is not assumed to be live for every fleet.
Built from the job
An office view shaped by HGV and drainage work.
Rivetway began as a spreadsheet used by founder David Langstead, an HGV drainage engineer. More than a decade working with vans through to 44-tonne tankers shaped the focus on drivers, jobs and the records returned to the office. Read how Rivetway started.

What does Rivetway fleet management software cover?
It connects vehicle and driver records with job assignments, driver checks, defects, workshop actions and documents. This helps the office follow both the work and the information returned by the driver.
Is it suitable for drainage and mixed fleets?
Rivetway grew from HGV and drainage experience and supports vehicle-linked operational records. Use the trial to check a typical van, HGV or specialist-vehicle job and any equipment-specific records your business requires.
Is fleet management the same as vehicle tracking?
Tracking shows where a vehicle is when a connected provider supplies that information. Fleet management also covers assignments, people, checks, repairs and records. Confirm tracking setup separately if it is part of your buying decision.
Are modules or drivers charged separately?
All modules and unlimited users are included across the published plans. Pricing is based on fleet size, so office staff, drivers and workshop users do not each need a paid seat.
