From then to now

Scott began Plant and Vehicle Services Ltd from a desire to provide the construction industry with an all-in-one telematics solution for truly mixed fleets of vehicles and machinery. The solution needed to bring live data into an easy-to-use single-sign-on platform, and it has excelled in more ways than we can count

Scott McCabe

Scott McCabe
As the Owner and Managing Director of PVS, Scott brings with him over 30 years of experience and knowledge of the construction industry. From an engineering background, Scott recognised that electronics were developing within the sector and moved into the immobilisation and tracking world in 2004. After 6 years of looking after dealers, OEMs and contractors as a Consultant Technical Support Manager, Scott decided to take the plunge and start up on his own – which is how PVS was born. Through the company, Scott has continued to develop his passion for construction machinery, electronics and diagnostics. Scott has worked for major tracking and OEM dealers and contractors, offering support and assistance. Through this, he noticed the gap in the market place for a multi-fleet single login web-based platform. This is how PVS became the company we know it as today.
