What’s Slowing Your Fleet Down?

Could a change in how work gets done help your fleet return vehicles to service sooner?

In Government Fleet’s September wrapup, we look at how a paid internship program freed experienced technicians for more complex repairs. Another fleet used oil analysis to address recurring engine failures, reducing losses from five to seven annually to two over the following two years.

We also explore how a fleet got 87 police cruisers into service after delayed orders arrived within one year, and how an apprenticeship gave people without fleet experience a path into the shop.

Plus, Public Fleet Hall of Fame nominations are open earlier than usual, giving you more time to prepare a nomination.

What process has your fleet changed to reduce delays? Share your experience in the comments.
