The problem we solve

Most fleets are run reactively — and it's expensive.

When there's no plan, vehicles get replaced only after they break down, several at once, in unpredictable spike years that wreck the budget. Nobody knows the true condition of the fleet, what it's worth, or what next year will cost.

And when it's time to buy, the guidance is often compromised — you're left guessing which products are actually best, or trusting whichever manufacturer rep gave the smoothest pitch.

We're independent. Zero ties to any manufacturer, and hands-on experience with all of them. No more guessing which product is right — we know what works, and who it works for.
  • Surprise replacement costs that blow up the annual budget
  • Aging vehicles kept too long, draining money into repairs
  • No single source of truth for what you own or its condition
  • Product picks driven by the best sales pitch, not real results
  • Buying decisions made on gut feel instead of numbers
How we work

A simple, two-step engagement

Every engagement starts with a one-time assessment that builds your foundation, then continues as an ongoing membership — which also handles your vehicle purchasing and equipment builds.

1

Fleet Assessment & Setup

We build your foundation from your actual vehicles: a full database, a 5-year replacement plan & budget, cash-vs-finance analysis, and a custom inspection form.

Fleet Management Membership

Your fractional fleet manager keeps the database current, refreshes the budget yearly, and oversees inspections — and handles your purchasing: we spec, source, and coordinate vehicle buys and equipment builds, supplying equipment at competitive pricing.

What you actually get

Real deliverables, built from your data

This isn't advice on a slide. Every engagement produces working tools you keep and use — here's what they look like.

Deliverable 01

Your complete fleet database

Every vehicle you own, in one live record — identity, mileage, condition, current value, and its scheduled replacement year. The single source of truth the whole plan is built on.

Deliverable 02

5-year replacement plan & budget

We forecast every replacement across the next five years, then level the spend — turning unpredictable spike years into a steady, plannable annual number. Same vehicles, same total, no surprises.

Unmanaged (reactive spend) Leveled replacement plan
$0 $30k $60k $90k $120k $150k 2026 unmanaged: $18k 2026 leveled: $61k $18k $61k 2027 unmanaged: $95k 2027 leveled: $61k $95k $61k 2028 unmanaged: $22k 2028 leveled: $61k $22k $61k 2029 unmanaged: $140k 2029 leveled: $61k $140k $61k 2030 unmanaged: $30k 2030 leveled: $61k $30k $61k 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030

Why leveling matters

The reactive fleet faces a $140k spike in 2029. The managed plan spreads the same replacements into a steady annual budget you can actually fund.

Cash vs. finance analysis

For each replacement, we run the numbers both ways so the buying decision is made on cost, not habit.

Common questions

How the engagement works

What's included in the Fleet Assessment & Setup?

A complete vehicle database built from your fleet, a five-year replacement plan and leveled budget, a cash-vs-finance analysis for upcoming replacements, written recommendations, and a custom monthly inspection form. It's the foundation everything else runs on.

How is pricing scaled to my fleet?

The one-time assessment starts at $3,500 and is priced by fleet size — 1–15, 16–40, and 41–100 vehicles. Membership starts at $250/month and scales the same way. Fleets over 100 vehicles get a custom program.

Do I have to keep the membership after the assessment?

No. The assessment is a standalone deliverable you keep. Most clients continue with membership so the database, budget, and inspections stay current — but it's your call.

Is procurement really included in the membership?

Yes. Sourcing and coordinating your vehicle purchases and equipment builds is part of your membership — we work alongside your current suppliers, or supply equipment directly at competitive pricing. You only pay for the equipment itself; the sourcing, spec'ing, and coordination is included.

How does buying and building your vehicles work?

We handle the whole purchasing and upfit process so you don't have to. We go direct with the upfitter of your choice — or one we recommend — and coordinate the build with them directly, so you're not chasing vendors. We work with dealers to get the best price on the vehicles themselves, help you design and spec exactly the vehicle you want to build, and gather multiple quotes to make sure you're getting the best price. We'll even write the proposals for you. You make the decisions — we do the legwork.

What size fleets do you work with?

From a handful of vehicles up to 100+. Programs are right-sized so a small operation gets the same rigor without paying for scale it doesn't need.

Professional fleet management, made simple.

Start with a Fleet Assessment and we'll build your database, budget, and plan — then keep it running as your remote fleet manager.
