FAQ

Why should I use a central system to manage my fleet?

A lot of data is generated when managing a fleet. These data play a major role in monitoring and controlling your costs, but also in the start-up of certain processes. If you use the systems provided by your lease company, these data are made transparent to you in various ways, making it difficult for you to compare or merge data and results. When using a Central Fleet Management system you are able to store, categorize and compare all data centrally and unambiguously. Therefore, all processes and communication are initiated unambiguously and invoices are processed much easier, reducing loads of manual handling and faults.

If I give my employees the option for EV, will my costs also increase?

That is not necessarily true. Of course, in addition to the costs of purchasing an EV, there are also costs for placing a charging facility, for example at the employee's home. Much depends on how you calculate the budget made available to your employees and which components you include in this. However, the average purchase price of an EV is higher than a same class vehicle with a fossil fuel engine.

Is outsourcing my fleet cheaper than doing it in-house?

Managing a fleet requires a lot of expertise and continuity. The question is how to keep grip on costs and processes in the current situation. So it does not necessarily have to be cheaper to outsource your fleet.

How can I make the use of my fleet more flexible?

If you want to use the fleet more flexibly, the agreements with your suppliers play an important role. Whereas in the past you used cars with a long term of 72 months, nowadays it is often more interesting to shorten the terms to 30 months. In addition, it is advisable to ask your suppliers about the flexible solutions they offer.

What is the advantage of working with a local branch of my fleet management organization?

If you have your fleet managed by a European Fleet Management organization, it is important that this organization has an office in every country. The reason why Dragintra works with local offices has to do with the local differences in the use of cars, lease contracts and local taxes. We believe you can only get a firm grip on your costs and processes if it managed by a local office.

What is the difference between a single supplier and a multi-bidding system?

If you work with one lease company to request your new lease cars, you will often work in a single supplier structure. However, in many cases there are also cars in the fleet obtained from another lease company. If you are using a multi-bidding system, then you compare each new car from at least two lease companies and place the eventual order with one of them. If you would like to know more about the advantages and disadvantages of both methods, please contact one of our specialists.

Onze klimaatambitie

Onze klimaatambitie

Dragintra zet zich actief in voor het klimaat en streeft ernaar de uitstoot van onze activiteiten te verminderen. Om dit op een onderbouwde manier te doen, hebben we gekozen om reductiedoelstellingen op te stellen volgens het Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Het SBTi definieert en promoot best practices voor het vaststellen van wetenschappelijk onderbouwde doelstellingen en beoordeelt onafhankelijk de doelstellingen van bedrijven.

Naast het hebben van SBTi-gevalideerde doelstellingen, rapporteert Dragintra ook via het Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) over klimaat en via EcoVadis over duurzaamheid.

CO₂-emissies

Mantis Consulting heeft de CO₂-uitstoot van Dragintra in kaart gebracht vanaf 2023. We maken een duidelijk onderscheid tussen twee emissietypes:

Scope 1 emissies: directe emissies door het verbranden van fossiele brandstoffen (zoals gas, diesel en benzine).
Scope 2 emissies: indirecte emissies door de productie van elektriciteit die Dragintra van het net afneemt.

De resultaten van deze analyse zijn opgenomen in ons carbon footprint rapport van 2024 (zie bijlagen). Dit rapport vormt de basis voor onze reductiedoelstellingen.

Reductiedoelstellingen

We ondersteunen de klimaatdoelstelling van het Akkoord van Parijs om de opwarming van de aarde te beperken tot 1,5 °C. Daarom willen we tegen 2035 onze eigen CO₂-uitstoot (scope 1 en 2 emissies) met 63% verminderen ten opzichte van ons basisjaar 2023. Daarnaast gaan we onze scope 3 emissies meten en reduceren.

Het SBTi heeft Dragintra’s wetenschappelijk onderbouwde korte termijn emissiereductiedoelstelling (tegen 2035) goedgekeurd. De officiële, door het SBTi gevalideerde formulering luidt:

Dragintra commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and scope 2 GHG emissions 63% by 2035 from a 2023 base year, and to measure and reduce its scope 3 emissions.
