Case Study: Columbia County achieves $320,000 in savings with Enterprise Fleet Management

Columbia County Expects to Save Over $320,000 with Enterprise’s Program

Columbia County, a government organization in Hudson, NY, was struggling with an aging fleet that was hurting its budget. Nearly half of its 124 vehicles were 10 years old or older, and the county had been replacing vehicles only when they broke down, leading to unpredictable capital expenses. Enterprise Fleet Management stepped in to help address the challenge.

Enterprise Fleet Management implemented a fleet replacement plan that would let Columbia County refresh vehicles every five years and generate more than $200,000 in capital from vehicle resale over five years. The new fleet improved fuel efficiency by 20–25%, lowered maintenance costs and downtime, and helped streamline operations. Overall, the county expects to save over $320,000 over 10 years while also improving safety and its public image.
