Fleet Management

Everything starts with accurately identifying a vehicle. From there, exploring current and future values, specifications and much more can be done with ease.

RedBook provides enhanced car and motorcycle API identification services that matches a Registration or VIN to the specific car or motorcycle’s unique RedBook ID using proprietary and parallel industry data sources.

A RedBook ID (code) enables under license access to a full suite of specifications, options, imagery, and RedBook’s range of pricing & valuation services.

Even without a registration or VIN look-up API, RedBook’s database can support a comprehensive "help me choose" drop down menu solution delivering the right vehicle and details required to power origination platforms.

Commonly used by Fleet Managers to assist with efficient and accurate asset onboarding.

RedBook’s solution can be fully integrated within your systems via our API or accessed via RedBook’s Fleetmaster online portal solution.

Better Specs = Smarter Fleet Management

RedBook’s new VIN lookup service delivers OEM-authorised factory specification data, giving users a clear picture of how a vehicle was originally ordered, including optional upgrades and variant-level detail.

RedBook’s platform pulls data directly from FCAI OEM members. The information, covering most participating brands from 2010 onwards, is integrated into RedBook’s database to provide dependable details on make, model, year, variant, and available factory-fitted options.

Allows fleet operators to validate a vehicle’s factory option specifications before acquiring an existing portfolio from another provider or check the original configuration of existing assets for re-sale, safety or compliance purposes. Get access to detailed OEM option information to power procurement and disposal decisions.

RedBook’s solution can be fully integrated within your systems via our API solution.

PredictRV Pro is built for users that make risk weighted decisions off vehicle values; not just today, but into the future.

Most decisions in our industry are still made off today’s price, today’s wholesale, today’s retail, today’s book value. What PredictRV PRO does is shift that conversation forward, by showing where value is likely to go, not just where it is right now.

PredictRV PRO allows you to forecast a specific vehicle at a very granular level; make, model, year, variant and use realistic assumptions around kilometres per year and vehicle condition.

 For fleets and leasing companies, the value is timing. Instead of reacting late to market shifts, fleets can model how values are likely to evolve and plan disposals or replacements at stronger forecast exit points. It can also improve end of term planning by aligning expected kilometres and condition with likely resale outcomes, supporting more accurate whole of life cost modelling.

Providing services to large Rental and Fleet Management Organisations alike, RedBook’s expertise extends to multiple areas of fleet management, including but not limited to:

Portfolio Valuation Assessments, covering:

• Current used pricing
• Re-forecasting end of term used car values.
• Financial provisioning purposes
• Effective risk and capital management

Cost-to-Run / Cost-To-Own calculations to support customer lease quotations, fleet selection and budgeting for operating leases and alike.

Remarketing intelligence, from deciding which vehicles to de-fleet and when, RedBook’s suite of market valuation tools be it historical, current (including real-time) or forecast, can assist your team in setting and/or benchmarking reserve values to maximise outcomes.
