Case Study: City of Stamford, CT achieves $560,000 in two-year savings by automating fleet management with Agile Fleet

Saves $560,000 in Two Years by Automating Fleet Management and Sharing Vehicles

City of Stamford CT, a municipal fleet operator with about 1,100 vehicles, faced rising costs and no reliable utilization data for its 80 passenger vehicles at the Government Center, which were used by nearly 50 departments. Fleet Manager Mike Scacco sought a solution for accountability and right-sizing and engaged Agile Fleet, deploying its FleetCommander FMIS along with integrated GPS tracking to collect trip, mileage, and driver behavior data.

Using Agile Fleet’s FleetCommander for online reservations, automated dispatching, key management, billing and reporting, Scacco implemented a vehicle-sharing policy, consolidated the pool from 80 to 49 then to 29 shared vehicles, and sold 51 unneeded vehicles. The City of Stamford CT realized $560,000 in two-year savings (about $356K in two-year operating cost reductions plus $204K disposal income), ongoing annual savings of roughly $178K, projected five-year savings of over $1M, and significant replacement-cost avoidance — all enabled by Agile Fleet’s system and data.
