For many small and medium-sized businesses, fleet management can be a real challenge—especially if they don’t have a dedicated team to handle it. With limited time, no dedicated fleet team, and growing operational demands, key aspects of vehicle management often fall through the cracks. This leads to reactive maintenance, higher repair costs, and inefficiencies that directly impact business performance and customer satisfaction.
