Devitech – Providing EV charging solutions backed by Virta’s strong CPMS

Devitech is a UK-based EV charging solution provider. By partnering with Virta, the company delivers installation, management and maintenance services supported by Virta’s robust Charge Point Management System (CPMS), 24/7 customer support, fleet capabilities and an extensive roaming network.

Established in 2022 and acquired in 2024 by an environmental consultancy group SaveMoneyCutCarbon, Devitech is committed to helping UK businesses start their sustainability journeys through electric vehicle charging. 

Initially, Devitech focused mainly on hardware installations. However, it soon became clear that the real gap in the market lay in what happens after chargers are installed. That insight sparked a shift in direction: to stand out in a competitive market, Devitech would put main focus on charger management and maintenance.

With EV ChargeCare, their monthly subscription service, Devitech offers their customers out-of-hours monitoring, usage and revenue reporting, regular firmware updates, and yearly electrical inspections and safety tests. 

“We knew the EV market will grow. But the key was finding that niche - addressing specific pain points, especially in the management and maintenance of chargers. For us, the end of the project marks the beginning of our relationship with the customer. And for that, a strong back-end system is essential,” says Graham Rowlands, Devitech’s Managing Director. 

Before partnering with Virta, Devitech worked with other providers. But a few persistent challenges drove them to search for a better solution. 

One of the biggest pain points was the lack of reliable customer support, which forced Devitech’s small team to handle all customer queries directly. That’s why Virta’s 24/7, in-house support stood out. 

“Many providers say they offer 24/7 support, but few actually do. What I like about Virta is that their support is in-house. It works really well for us,” explains Graham. 

Graham continues to highlight another key feature that helped seal the partnership – EV fleet management. 

Shifting focus to the fleet market 

Devitech originally served mainly hotels. Thanks to their UK-wide presence, they installed and currently provide long term management and maintenance for EV chargers in 20 hotels across the country. 

But as the market moved forward, many hotels started opting for the fully funded model to operate EV chargers, which made continuing to serve this sector financially unsustainable. This prompted Devitech to take a step in a different direction and put stronger emphasis on the fleet market.  

Their fleet focus aligns perfectly with Virta’s offering. EV fleets benefit from a combination of public and private setups, so fleet drivers can enjoy the so-called triangle of convenience – charging at home, at work and on the road.

In addition, Graham highlights the mobile app that works especially well for fleet users. With the app, fleet drivers can easily locate chargers and access chargers within Virta’s extensive roaming network. 

Another fleet specific feature Graham mentions is automated billing, which consolidates charges into a single invoice. This means no more juggling multiple fuel cards or claiming back receipts. 

Virta’s back-end system also provides strong analytics on EV driver behaviour and charging patterns. Thanks to these insights, Devitech’s customers have an easy way to analyse the data and make more informed decisions.
