ATS Launches On-Line Authorisation Service

ATS Euromaster has lunched an on-line authorisation service for commercial vehicle fleet operators.

In the past, authorisation for work required, has been carried out over the phone, sometimes causing delays or carrying the risk of possible disputes later on. The new system, which is being piloted at the moment and will be available to all ATS Euromaster account holders, will eliminate these potential problems.

The new system was written by ATS Euromaster’s in-house software design team and is a web-based application that links to operator databases, which can be located either on ATS’s secure server or on operators’ own servers. In routine maintenance situations, a range of tyre-related data, together with details of recommended work to be carried out, is entered into the system by the ATS Euromaster centre. If the recommendation is in line with the customer’s agreed tyre management policy, the work is automatically validated and authorised. In breakdown situations, no tyre data is entered – only work related to the job in hand.

Nick Gregg, Group Managing Director for ATS Euromaster, welcomed the launch of the new system, saying; “It will allow us to get our customers back on the road once again in the shortest time possible.”
