St. Joseph County keeps fleet budget flat for 7 years with Enterprise Fleet Management

St. Joseph County faced a challenge with an aging fleet where half of its vehicles were over ten years old. This led to unpredictable capital expenses as the county only replaced vehicles once they became inoperable. The county partnered with Enterprise Fleet Management for a fleet management solution.

Enterprise Fleet Management implemented a strategy to replace vehicles every five years. This approach modernized the fleet, provided a consistent replacement schedule, and improved resale values. The results included an estimated $200,000 in improved resale gains, which allowed the acquisition of over 40 new vehicles instead of just 5. The new, more fuel-efficient vehicles decreased fuel and maintenance costs and limited downtime. Enterprise helped the county achieve these results while keeping its fleet budget flat for seven years.
