ARTICLE TOOLS        | E-MailPrint

SPARKS, MD- PHH Arval announced that in 2007 it recovered more than $34.5 million on behalf of its corporate clients through its vehicle accident subrogation program. This program is part of PHH’s comprehensive collision management services designed to help corporate fleets reduce the number and costs of vehicle crashes.    

The $34.5 million total recovery number breaks PHH’s own previous record for subrogation recovery set last year. In addition, PHH Arval: 

· Instituted multiple process improvements over the past year that significantly sped subrogation cycle time to reimburse clients for claims more quickly.

· Increased the number of claims successfully collected by 8% over the prior year.

· Recovered over 95% of all amounts it attempted to collect

· Successfully recovered 40% of its clients’ total vehicle accident-related spend, which is considerably higher than the industry average of 29%.*

Fleet Safety Must be Your No. 1 Job Priority

By Mike Antich
In two decades of chronicling the history of fleet management, I have seen interest in fleet safety ebb and flow. In an annual survey I conduct of fleet managers, they rated fleet safety as their No. 2 concern, right behind the cost of fuel. Why the renewed interest in fleet safety? More and more fleet managers are reporting an uptick in preventable accidents. In addition, fleet managers are feeling pressure from other corporate departments to increase fleet driver safety.
