Maintaining your fleet of vehicles in top working condition is indeed a difficult and overwhelming task. Preventive Maintenance is all about having the correct information when it is needed. Without accurate and timely information, maintenance is neglected and sooner or later costly problems such as break downs, missed PM services, increased liability & risks, and lack of accountability will chip away at profits and substantially reduce the corporate bottom line.
In short, without a timely, accurate preventative maintenance management system, more resources are spent repairing equipment than having them working, not to mention the loss of valuable business and credibility. Read below to learn what benefits you can enjoy to make the management of your fleet a simpler task.
Fleet preventive maintenance shouldn’t be difficult. Stop being overwhelmed with the tasks of maintaining your fleet. Start managing your fleet of vehicles so you ensure all are in top working condition all the time.
Fleet maintenance refers to the process of repair and upkeep of vehicles owned by a business or an organization. ... Coming down to the math, you'll realize that it costs the company more in losses and wasted time and productivity when there's no proper authority handling fleet maintenance or management.
The best fleet management software is one that accommodates and is customizable to fit your specific fleet demands. No two fleets are the same and a off-the-shelve maintenance management software will not provide the value your fleet demands. Fleet management should integrate with fuel management, vehicle location software and overall fleet security so all work in harmony.
For the maintenance, work orders should be automatically generated with automatic alerts to all team members involved. Accurate vehicle data capture such as odometer readings, operation hours, idling time, managing parts inventory and smart maintenance scheduling should be just some of the features a good maintenance management software should provide.
The responsibilities of a fleet maintenance manager is to manage the repairs and mechanical integrity of a fleet of vehicles or equipment for an organization. Fleets come in all shapes and sizes from public transit buses, public works vehicles, school and charter buses, heavy equipment associated with mines, lumbering, agriculture and construction. The maintenance manager is responsible for keeping the fleet running with minimal breakdown and avoiding production shut-downs due to poorly maintained vehicle equipment.
Often the fleet maintenance manager will have previous experience as a vehicle repair, equipment technician or overall maintenance in that specific industry.
Reducing fleet maintenance costs are often a result of a strict and rigorous preventative maintenance schedule that is closely adhered to. Properly maintained vehicles suffer fewer breakdowns or accidents which then affects production which can be a much higher cost to the organization. Poorly maintained fleets can cause accidental injury to drivers, company personnel or innocent bystanders. The effects on an organization’s insurance can be monumental.
A fleet maintenance software needs to be integrated so vital operating parameters of the vehicle are routinely collected and maintenance frequencies can be accurately established. The software needs to also coordinate the service technicians along with parts inventory so everything is in place when the scheduled maintenance is to be performed.
