Fleet Care Program

Overview

The Fleet Care program is a hands-on, proactive, and inexpensive solution to your maintenance management needs. Unlike most solutions we don't do the repairs ourselves and don't have affiliations with any garages to ensure we are providing you with the lowest cost and most effective maintenance program possible.

The program consists of monthly inspections, preventive maintenance schedules, reports and invoice analysis. These are professionally administered and updated to reflect changes in the industry, your vehicles and your needs as an organization.

Monthly On-Site Fleet Review

We inspect your fleet each month on-site at your location or locations at a time convenient for you. Even if that means early morning or late afternoon/evening we work around your operations. no image available

We check for:

Immediate safety and maintenance issues
Premature parts failure
Excessive wear
Poor quality work
Whether work was actually performed as stated by the mechanic or shop
Warranty and recall issues
Trends
Driver issues

We look at things at a different level than your drivers. Many times we find things mechanics and dealers have missed. A lot can change in a month on a company vehicle especially if it is driven by various drivers. You can't maintain a company vehicle the same way as a personal vehicle. Properly maintained vehicles can handle extreme usage and provide value for many years.

PM Schedules

Rather than depending on coupon books, generic schedules or random guesses we tailor our schedules to the needs and usage of your fleet. Our schedules are dynamic and only show you what you need to know for the current month so you don't waste time having to match up mileage parameters and compare them to each vehicle.

Our database compares to:

Manufacturers recommendation
Experience with similar vehicles
Experience with usage in your industry
History of your fleet
Specific vehicle history

Then combines the information with our inspection to develop the monthly PM schedules.

Prioritization

Many organizations (non-profits in particular) constantly battle with budget and cost issues. Our program is designed to allow for times when there isn't enough money to get all the work done at once. We break our advice down into 4 categories (immediate safety concerns, work due, overdue and severely overdue). This allows our clients to decide what work is most important for the coming month.

We will also advise clients if they are unsure of what is most critical. In most cases long term savings and vehicle life cycle will be improved by strictly following the PM Schedules, but we understand that in the real world this is not always possible. Using pre-set mileage parameters does not allow for as in depth prioritization as the Fleet Care program.

Invoice Analysis

As part of the program we take a copy of all your repair invoices. The invoices are checked for accuracy and any discrepancies are brought to the clients attention. Some clients want to deal with the maintenance facility on their own and others want Fleet Care to act on their behalf to resolve any issues. Either way there is no additional charge.

Typical Issues we find

Adding errors
Overcharges
Unneeded parts or repairs
Paid warranty work
Repetitive repairs
Poor quality work
Invoice doesn't match work performed

In most cases we are able to get money back for the client....we keep none of what we get back....it all goes back to YOUR bottom line!!!!
