Using an online portal that flags upcoming risks will prepare fleets\u00a0for any issues approaching June 8, while\u00a0improving risk management as they view data in \u2018real time\u2019.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Should fleets leave any changes too late, it could cost them considerable resources as they try to catch up; being fully prepared and minimising any changeover issues is essential if fleets are to take advantage of quicker and more efficient licence verification from June 8\u00a0onwards.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Malcolm Maycock (pictured), managing director of Licence Bureau, said: \u201cDespite the abolition of the paper counterpart not coming into force until June 8, we would advise fleets to move their records online immediately.
