Commonly asked questions
What is fleet optimization?
Fleet optimization is the process of maximizing the productivity of your fleet to reduce costs and improve the efficiency of your operations. There are a number of areas that fleet managers should look at to achieve optimal fleet efficiency, and fleet optimization software will help you to identify the best priority order for tackling these.
Key considerations for fleet optimization include:
• Fleet fuel consumption - are my vehicles achieving the best fuel consumption that they are capable of?
• Fleet maintenance - am I adequately prioritizing maintenance tasks to minimize vehicle downtime and maintenance costs?
• Fleet benchmarking - how does my operation’s fleet efficiency compare to that of other similar fleets?
• Vehicle rightsizing - do I have the right vehicles in my fleet, and are they all completing the duty cycles that they are best suited to?
