Fleet Management

It is quite a daunting task for fleet operators to maintain vehicle maintenance logs to ensure conformity with fleet standards, rules, policies and procedures. The larger the fleet operation, the more challenging the task of maintaining logs.

Each fleet vehicle needs a thorough and easy-to-use maintenance log. There must be an efficient system which can help in the establishment and maintenance of logs. This allows for fleet vehicle tracking and reporting at a later stage.

The auto maintenance logs generally include:

* General fleet maintenance history.

* Tire inventory.

* Automatic calculation of sales-tax.

* Fuel purchase tracking.

* Vehicle descriptions like year, model, make and registration details.

* Vehicle and equipment photographs.

These automotive maintenance logs are of immense help to businesses. They enable fleet operators to track down drivers, vendors, registration and purchasing information and any leasing information. Additional car maintenance logs may be created by fleet operators depending upon the nature of work, scale of operations and vehicle tracking categories.

Some of the vehicle maintenance logs are as follows: Repair maintenance log: It is quite important from the point of view of the business to track repair maintenance. When the business vehicle runs the course of its useful life, disposal takes place and a replacement sourced.

Parts inventory log: This log is created with the purpose of tracking the usage of fleet vehicles and equipment. Itemization is performed on the used parts and several parts usage reports are generated. This helps to maintain the parts inventory levels.

History recording log: This is where the analysis and reporting takes place. By studying operational costs, monitoring use, neglect and abuse, and determining depreciation costs strategic decision making can determine whether to continue to hold the vehicle or dispose and replace it.

Fleet inventory tracking log: This log contains details regarding the production year, model, make and serial number of the fleet vehicles. This is useful for calculating rates regarding depreciation, repair assessment and determining vehicle disposal.

Fuel tracking log: Every fleet organization is concerned with minimizing the consumption of fuel. It is necessary to monitor the consumption of fuel at regular intervals and make detailed studies to calculate economy in terms of fuel consumption. This log helps in ascertaining wear-and-tear and physical condition of the fleet vehicle. If the fleet vehicle is maintained in good condition the fuel consumption costs are less.

The above fleet maintenance logs are some of the essential documentation maintained by fleet operators to conduct and manage their day to day affairs.
