Sustainability in Fleet Management
As our world pushes for greener practices, we often run into the issue of some sustainable methods not always being the most cost-effective or time-efficient. For fleet managers, time is money, and while sustainability is crucial, the most environmentally friendly option, alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs), may not always align with the immediate needs of a fleet. So, what alternatives exist to ensure a fleet’s sustainability while still benefiting its profitability and productivity?
How can Predictive Maintenance help?
Beyond committing fully to alternative fuel vehicles, there are several strategies a fleet can adopt to enhance its sustainability. One of these approaches is predictive maintenance which is a crucial step in meeting ESG targets. Maintenance and oil upkeep acts as a better sustainability effort as opposed to having to do a complete repair or replacement of a vehicle. By effectively maintaining vehicles, fleets can improve fuel efficiency, which in turn contributes to environmental sustainability without a costly fleet redesign. Predictive maintenance not only addresses environmental concerns but also reduces fleet expenses. As highlighted in an annual report forecast by Construction Equipment Magazine, “more and more fleets are allocating larger portions of their maintenance budgets to accommodate supply chain disruptions that have driven up the costs of fleet vehicles.” This stresses the importance of maintenance, not only for environmental reasons but also for cost management. Anticipating maintenance needs in advance helps fleet managers prevent breakdowns and avoid unexpected downtime, which in turn cuts expenses.
