Helping One Source upskill drivers to meet growing site demands

To support business growth and reduce reliance on agency staff, One Source partnered with Insite to train their own HGV drivers. The result: certified in-house drivers, smoother logistics, and faster, more reliable transport to construction sites.

Situation

  • Traditional recruitment paths were failing to yield results.
  • Growth strategy impacted by lack of available staff
    The over reliance on agency drivers.
  • Needed a more cost-effective and efficient way to ensure they had enough drivers to meet demand.
  • Frustrated lack of communication from their training provider.

Challenge

One source Construction Services experienced significant growth due to the increasing demand for its construction and building services. As the company expanded, so did the scale and complexity of the projects they took on. This growth required a more efficient and reliable way to transport plant equipment, materials, and tools to various construction sites.

Solution

  • The use of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) played a crucial role in supporting this growth. HGVs are essential for the construction industry as they enable the transportation of large, heavy equipment like cranes, diggers, and bulldozers, as well as bulky building materials such as steel, concrete, and timber. As One source Construction Services grew, they needed to move heavier and more varied loads to meet the demands of larger-scale projects and ensure timely delivery of materials.
  • Additionally, having the use of HGVs would allow the company to streamline its operations, reduce dependency on third-party logistics providers, and ensure that they could deliver materials and equipment on-site without delays. This level of control over the supply chain was crucial for maintaining deadlines and providing consistent service, contributing directly to the company’s continued growth.
  • One Source Construction Services utilized Insite’s fully managed program as part of their strategy to meet the growing demands of their business. The training program provided individuals with the necessary skills and qualifications to safely operate HGVs, which was critical as the company expanded its operations and required a dedicated workforce to handle the increased transportation needs of heavy plant machinery and building materials to construction sites.

Result

  • By investing in Insite’s training, One Source not only ensured that their drivers were properly certified but also created an opportunity for workforce development. As a result, the outcome of this initiative was the successful training and qualification of two new HGV drivers for the company. These drivers were equipped with the expertise to operate HGVs efficiently, helping to streamline the transportation of equipment and materials to various sites.
  • This investment in training helped One Source maintain its high standards of safety, reliability, and efficiency, which were key to supporting the company’s growth. With two additional skilled HGV drivers on board, the company could better manage its fleet, increase capacity, and reduce reliance on external transportation services. This ultimately enhanced their ability to meet the demands of their expanding business and continue to deliver projects on time.
