Mercury Associates, Inc. previously announced the revival of the Certified Fleet Management Organization (CFMO) Program, a third-party certification system aimed at evaluating and improving public and private sector fleet operations.
Marcella Boyd, a consultant with Mercury Associates, joined Government Fleet to talk about the program, what's different, and what fleets need to know to earn the title. Here's what's covered in the video:
- CFMO background and what is significantly different from the pre-2019 version.
- Why a fleet should pursue CFMO, and where past participants have seen the biggest wins.
- How criteria are weighted, and whether any “gate” requirements can block certification.
- How CFMO accounts for differences in fleet size and resources, especially for small or rural fleets.
- What happens if an applicant falls short, including the feedback they receive, how quickly they can remediate and reapply, and the typical timeline and cost to complete.
- How fleets can start preparing now, especially with the goal of awarding certifications at GFX 2026.
