The Finance Directorate will provide assistance and support in the financial assessment of replacement and development plans. 3 FLEET WORKSHOPS The fleet is currently maintained and managed by the Trust s in-house maintenance department of 15 workshops, distributed throughout the North West, with the majority located on ambulance stations (Appendix 1). All workshops are appropriately equipped and operated by skilled staff. The fleet function is presently in the process of upgrading vehicle lifts and MOT brake test equipment at a number of key workshops. This is to accommodate change in vehicle weights and legislation. Trust workshops will be externally and internally audited to ensure value for money, and compliance with relevant Trust policies and in accordance with the ALE standards. Appendix 2 shows the number of workshop bays, operating hours and on call shifts 4 VEHICLE MAINTENANCE PLAN The Fleet department will implement and maintain a Vehicle Maintenance Plan. The prime objective of the maintenance plan will be to provide and ensure a continuing cost effective and safe quality maintenance programme. This will take into account operational demands and manufacturers criteria and ensure that the fleet is fit for purpose. 4.1 PERFORMANCE INDICATORS/SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT Fleet will develop a number of agreed performance indicators, these will include the following:- Workshop Thru-Put performance Accident Damage Fleet Policy Page: Page 8 of 26
9 MOT pass rate Productivity Performance indicators in the form of an Assurance Report will be presented to the EMT quarterly and the Trust Board six monthly. Any changes to the measures are to be agreed with the Assistant Director of Performance Management. To assist the monitoring of activity against the KPIs, a single fleet software system will be implemented across all workshops to store and collate data on fleet and workshop activity. 4.2 CONTINGENCY PLANS Business Continuity Plans (BCP) will be maintained through training and exercise and regular audit and review, to ensure the continuity of all fleet requirements and vehicle maintenance. Business Impact Analysis (BIA) processes will be undertaken by the Fleet Managers in conjunction with the Emergency Preparedness Team to ensure that all fleet requirements support and integrate with other departmental arrangements and the overarching Trust BCP. The Fleet Business Continuity Management (BCM) arrangements will be made available to all members of the Fleet Team and other Trust departments. The Assistant Director Service Delivery Support will be responsible for ensuring contingency arrangements are maintained. 5 VEHICLE PROCUREMENT As a government agency, the Trust must comply with both the EU procurement regulations and the Trusts own Standing Financial Instructions (SFI s) for the procurement of goods and services. To do this the Trust must either purchase or lease the vehicles from a national or regional contract which has been awarded following an appropriate tender process, via a national, or regional procurement agency - for example the NHS Purchasing and Supply Agency (PASA), Office of Government Commerce (OGC) or a regional Collaborative Procurement Hub (such as NW CPH). Or alternatively, the Trust must undertake its own EU compliant tender process using the appropriate timescales (an OJEU process can usually take between 4 to 6 months). To ensure that the most appropriate vehicles are procured, which are fit for purpose and value for money, it is essential that an agreed specification is produced and signed off by all relevant stakeholders. This exercise must be undertaken before the procurement process can be started. Once the specification has been agreed the Trust can identify an appropriate procurement solution. Fleet Policy Page: Page 9 of 26
10 6 SPECIFICATION CONFORMITY Two Vehicle Design and Equipment Group s (VDEG) are established (A&E and PTS), to advise the Trust on matters relating to the design, specification, procurement and use of vehicles and equipment for the North West Ambulance Service with the aim of securing benefits from an optimum procurement methodology. The groups will take into account historical trends, current and future legislation and risk. The VDEG Terms of Reference will reflect the national Terms of Reference to achieve standardisation. Design for Patient Safety (NPSA) Taking Health Care to the Patient will also be taken into account when developing specifications. The Fleet Engineer Strategic is a member of the National Strategic Fleet Group (NSFG). The purpose of this group is to provide specialist advice and support to the National Chief Executive Group (NCEG) with an aim of developing a single national specification for an identified group of vehicles. 7 VEHICLE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM (VRP) The Fleet Strategy proposes having annual replacement programmes and that these programmes will be drawn up to take into account the changing fleet profile in line with the service modernisation. The number of available sources for building ambulances is limited, and the demand on them from ambulance services across the country is high. Vehicle acquisition requires a great deal of detail and involvement from many areas, with the procurement of vehicles taking a minimum of six months from concept to delivery, table 1 identifies key elements, timings and responsibilities to achieve delivery of replacement vehicles within the scheduled financial year.

Table 1: Replacement Plan Annual vehicle replacement programmes will be supported by robust business cases targeted to each Service Delivery core vehicle type. 8 LEASE CAR SCHEME The Trust has developed a policy for the provision of lease cars within the NWAS NHS Trust. The Trust recognises that business mileage is an inevitable part of the roles of many employees. The Trust recognises the need to develop arrangements which either provide appropriate transport or financial recompense to staff with regard to business mileage. The scheme aims to set out a reasonable policy whereby if a lease car is requested a decision to provide one can be made and the employee can select a vehicle appropriate to their needs. The policy will be administered by the Fleet Department. The policy is based on the following values and aims: Reducing complexity Improving transparency Ensuring Value for money Improving environmental efficiency Providing a safe range of vehicles The Trust is committed to its responsibilities as a corporate citizen. As such the Trust will endeavour to reduce emissions and eliminate unnecessary business mileage. Fleet Policy Page: Page 11 of 26
12 All vehicles acquired under the scheme will be leased by the Trust rather than an individual. The types of vehicle procured through the scheme will be compatible to a public sector organisation. 9 ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL (FLEET/WORKSHOPS) The Fleet Engineer (Operational) and Area Service Managers in partnership with the Estates Manager s will manage the impact on the environment from vehicles and workshops. Workshops maintain a register for the safe disposal of waste products in accordance with European Waste Directive. 10 VEHICLE EMISSIONS The main factors that contribute to the production of carbon are vehicle design, vehicle utilisation, vehicle maintenance, fuel usage and driving technique. The Trust seeks wherever possible to act in a socially responsible manner. The Trust recognises its responsibility to minimise any adverse impact of its activities on the environment, and the need to develop targets and plans to reduce environmental pollution from its transport in partnership with relevant stakeholders. All vehicles operated by the trust conform to the relevant European regulation at the time of production. Vehicles are maintained on a regular basis to achieve optimum performance. Emissions are tested for conformity on an annual basis. The Lease Car Policy includes a maximum emission limit for cars acquired through the scheme. Trust representatives are presently developing a partnership with the Energy Saving Trust to identify the carbon footprint for vehicles used on Trust business. 11 FUEL The Trust has a current annual fuel spend of approximately 12.4 million annually purchased via Government contracts. The Trust will continue to review a wide range of initiatives to potentially reduce this annual spend. The Trust has evaluated the use of alternative fuels, including LPG, natural gas etc and has determined that these are not currently appropriate to meet the demands of the service. However as part of a trial project we are working in partnership with Greater Manchester Police for the use of bio-diesel. The Trust is at present carrying out a trial within the Bury area and will continue to evaluate the potential of this alternative supplier of fuel. Fleet Policy Page: Page 12 of 26
13 There are no vehicle manufacturers on the national framework agreement at the present time that offer any alternative fuelled vehicle for Accident and Emergency or Passenger Transport. The fleet function will continue to review and evaluate opportunities that may arise for the use of alternative fuelled vehicles dependant upon there suitability for the operational requirements of the Trust. 12 HEALTH & SAFETY 12.1 ACCESSIBILITY FOR PATIENTS The Trust will ensure that all patient carrying vehicles and equipment comply with relevant legislation. All new vehicles specifications will have the potential to impact both staff and services with regards to equality. Therefore, there is a requirement to carry out a detailed Equality Impact Assessment; this is carried out through the Vehicle Design & Equipment Group in consultation with the Assistant Director of Equality & Diversity INSURANCE All trust vehicles are required to carry commercial insurance cover in compliance with the Road Traffic Act The Trust negotiates its premiums on an annual basis under the Ambulance Association Scheme, which currently covers eight other ambulance trusts. The Trust also has commercial Motor Trade cover for its vehicle maintenance operation, which is responsible for the servicing and maintenance requirements of our operational fleet VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT FAILURE Vehicle and equipment mechanical failures, where staff injuries have occurred, will be reported in accordance with incident reporting guidelines indicated in the Trust's Incident Reporting & Investigation Policy. The Trust will monitor and act on notifications from the Healthcare Governance Department and relevant manufacturers. The Trust is committed to complying with its statutory responsibilities to ensure, so far as reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare of any patient in our care, all its employees, service users and any other person who could be affected by the activities of the Trust. The Trust s Incident Reporting & Investigation Policy aims to make sure that NWAS NHS Trust can meet its statutory obligations to report incidents to the appropriate external agency when required and to work with those agencies throughout the investigation process. Fleet Policy Page: Page 13 of 26
14 12.4 INFECTION CONTROL Fleet workshops will comply with the Trust Infection Control Policy. The Trust is committed to promoting the highest standards of infection control to ensure that appropriate measures are in place within the Trust to reduce the risk of acquired infections and therefore increase the safety of our patients, staff and the public. The purpose of the NWAS NHS Trust Infection Control Policy is to minimise risks associated with the control of infection and to provide the Trust Board with an effective approach towards providing a safe, clean and modern environment. It will also provide safe working conditions and best practices for staff and the patients within their care DEEP CLEANING The Service Delivery Support function will carry out the deep cleaning of the operational fleet of ambulance vehicles. The fleet department in partnership with the Medical Directorate will ensure compliance to infection prevention and control standards, frequency of cleans and regular clinical inspections. 13 RISK MANAGEMENT The Trust has developed a Risk Management Strategy and Policy, and as part of the ongoing development of these, the Trust fleet services department, in conjunction with Healthcare Governance, are developing risk management controls for the fleet services department including risk registers, risk assessments, control measures and contingency plans. The Trust will monitor this process through the risk management structure as set out in the strategy and policy. The Trust accepts that due to the nature of its activities there will be risks present in those activities. Through risk assessment the Trust will determine acceptable risk levels and ensure that through monitoring and review processes, further measures are implemented to reduce risk as a result of changes in practices, standards, legislation and new equipment emerging WORKPLACE INSPECTIONS The Trusts Fleet department has a number of high risk activities. The Fleet Engineer Operational will monitor the fleet operation assisted by the Area Risk Managers, to ensure a safe working environment and compliance with the health and safety policy and slips, trips and fall procedures.
