A sound vehicle and equipment replacement program is important to government agencies and public entities of all sizes. Without a viable and comprehensive replacement program, fleet managers will be unable to replace vehicles and equipment when needed, or for that matter, may even be unable to identify the optimum time to replace these items.
Planned Fleet Replacement is designed to provide public managers at all levels—including fleet managers, public works directors, and equipment operators—with the basic guidelines to determine when and how to replace vital equipment. It will introduce financing strategies as well as outline ideas on how to dispose of and achieve the maximum residual value from vehicles and equipment selected for replacement.
