“I need a vehicle to do my job.”Challenge 1:

“Even if they might use them seldom, they need the commitment to have a vehicle available.”

- Sean Pownall, Fleet Administrator, City Of Bellevue

Typical solution: Assign a vehicle to each driver

• Cost of ownership = $6000 / yr • Car is underutilized • Driver is using time to manage his car • Demand for other employees not met

Taking a closer look at this driver’s assigned vehicle:

Our solution: Add his vehicle to a shared motor pool

Maximize Vehicle UtilizationChallenge 2:

“Homeland Security spent $48.6million on underutilized vehicles in 2012.”

- Department Of Homeland Security Audit Report

With your underutilized vehicles, ask these two questions:

Are these vehicles assigned?

Do the drivers bring these vehicles home?

If vehicles are assigned:

and are NOT brought home by drivers…

and are brought home by drivers…

Add these vehicles to the motor pool.

Look at the number of miles driven per year. If below 6,000 - 7,000

miles, consider personal mileage reimbursement.

If vehicles are not assigned, boost demand by:

• opening up the pooled vehicles to more drivers and departments

• placing them in more centralized locations • lowering the pricing

Once these steps are done to maximize usage: Sell the remaining vehicles

What vehicles should I buy?Challenge 3:

“As companies continue to look for ways to cut fleet expenses, the forecast is a shift away from driver-dedicated fleet vehicles to car sharing or

comparable type services.”

- Automotive Fleet, 2015

Before you make a purchase, ask the question: Do you need vehicles at all?
