June 19, 2009 - Vehicle maintenance directly impacts every aspect of fleet management from productivity to safety, from environmental compliance to the financial bottom line. A mastery of vehicle maintenance issues is critical to every fleet manager's job. Now available, the Fleet Maintenance Operations Guide provides 540 pages of detailed information and answers to the questions fleet managers face every day.
NAFA's Fleet Maintenance Operations Guide is a comprehensive resource for every fleet manager, whether they work for a large corporation, government entity, university, or any other fleet sector. Chapters explore the essential maintenance principles of in-house, contracted, and outsourced maintenance through such titles as "Preventive Maintenance & Warranty Operations", "Shop Operations", "Environmental Issues", "Inventory Management", "Benchmarking Staff Performance", "Outsourcing", and "Maintenance Staffing".
"The new Fleet Maintenance Operations Guide is a fantastic reference for you to make a comprehensive review of your repair operation," noted project volunteer Mark Bellamy, CAFM, Fleet Manager for the County of York, Virginia. "The level of detail makes it a great value for all and an unparalleled reference."
The guide's valuable forms, lists of standards, checklists, and guidelines aim to assist fleet managers with their operation; detailed chapters that present comprehensive topic reviews complete with easy reference tools; lists of additional resources for further research and investigation after each chapter; and an appendix with numerous fleet department job descriptions, ASE and EVT information, and EPA-approved RCRA Vehicle Maintenance Guidelines.
The Fleet Maintenance Operation Guide is available as an e-download that can be taken anywhere or on CD. The price for NAFA Members is $49 for the e-download or $69 for the CD. Non-Member price is $82 for the e-download and $99 for the CD.
This product follows the highly anticipated Fuel Management Guide, which was released in May 2009. The two products continue NAFA's mission to provide comprehensive fleet management education to meet the diverse needs of fleet managers across the United States and Canada.
