Hidden fleet for corporate users
I work for a company that is rolling out its own EV chargers at its sites, and is slowly transitioning its vehicles to EVs. The company already recommends that the staff use ABRP for planning as best it can, but we don’t have a solution to be able to plan travel while taking into account both our privately accessed chargers and public chargers. The company is talking about trying to develop something in-house but that solution would be years away. If we had the ability to list our chargers in ABRP and mark them as “unavailable to public”, or have them visible to only certain users, then I suspect the company would be willing to pay for that feature. It would be a lot cheaper than developing a custom platform in-house. We have a staff of ~1300, though not all of them travel for work. The fleet of EVs is up to about 20 I think. We have 9 charger sites currently installed and have 9 more planned by July 2026. I’m not sure the plan from then. We have 30 major sites and lots of minor sites across a 68,000km2 state.

Ideally, we could also list the fleet of corporate cars and the user could select which car type they are in.

I assume that it would require a separate user access layer where an organisation is setup and individual user accounts (and charger sites) can request association with an organisation and then the organisation can approve it. There is a bit of work in that. However, I also see a benefit for ABRP to gain more premium users or a separate corporate category. I don't know how it would work with phone/car access, I imagine that individual users need to associate with the organisation using their private email or create a new account with their organisation email.

This same feature (or the smarts for it) would allow users to list their own home charger and use it as part of planning for a week, etc.

Can you refresh this post so that it only shows my name, not my email address? I see that I had that in as my name but have now fixed this.
