PREAMBLE

Fleet management is the function that oversees, coordinates and facilitates various transport and transport related activities. For the purpose of this course it will cover vehicles involved in the movement of goods; the management of light vehicle fleets used in the transportation of people and light cargo; possibly motorbikes and other equipment such as generators and warehouse handling equipment. Fleet management underpins and supports transport related activities through the management of the assets that are used.

Effective fleet management aims at reducing and minimizing overall costs through maximum, cost effective utilization of resources such as vehicles, fuel, spare parts, etc. The administration and financial management of fleet is very organisational specific. It largely depends on the objectives of the organization, requirements and organisational policies. At a glance, some vehicles are restricted to specific activities, others are utilised in pools to serve all projects, some are strictly organisational driver driven and others self-staff driven and coordinated in pools based on administration policies related to pooling. The custodian of the fleet management function is also very much dependant on organizational policies and structures.
