Tarva
Tarva combines recruitment, scheduling, dispatch, vehicles, pay, and compliance for courier and fleet operations. Managers use its web app on desktop, laptop, or tablet, while team members use the app for schedules, messages, and pay. Published schedules appear in the app, and dispatch shows live team status and operational exceptions. Recruitment follows applicants through screening and onboarding; records hold team details, documents, licences, and right-to-work information. Tarva monitors licences, right to work, MOT, and road tax, with automatic DVLA vehicle checks. Payments include deductions and adjustments and can be exported. Geotab integration supports vehicle tracking, odometer, and fuel or charge-state information. Access can be set by user and module, with logs showing who acted and when. Tarva says it backs up data and monitors uptime. Its privacy policy says data is hosted in the European Union, encrypted in transit, not sold or used for advertising, and not used to track location. Starter is free for up to 15 active team members, one location, and 30 days of activity history. Foundation costs £249/mo, billed plus VAT where applicable.
