Drivers receive security and defensive-driving training and are supported by our operations team throughout assigned missions.

For longer-distance or field movements, vehicle and journey requirements can be assessed before deployment.

GPS Tracking & 24/7 Journey Monitoring

Knowing where personnel and vehicles are during a journey is an important part of effective journey management.

Archer vehicles can be monitored through our 24/7 Control Room, allowing our operations team to maintain oversight of movements and provide support when required.

Journey monitoring can be combined with agreed check-in procedures and escalation protocols, particularly for field travel and longer-distance road movements.

This provides clients with an additional layer of operational oversight without placing the burden of continuous journey monitoring on travelling personnel.

Depending on the mission, our journey management support can include:
