Case Study: How One County Saved $800,000 by Right-Sizing Their Fleet & Sharing Vehicles

In just over 100 days, the Forsyth County, NC automotive division achieved significant savings by eliminating 8% of their total fleet, streamlining key management processes, and slashing by 50% the county’s expenses for personally-owned vehicle (POV) usage.

Officials at Forsyth County NC say that automating their fleet processes has given them the data needed to make decisions to reduce the fleet and reduce costs. Forsyth County’s fleet serves 2,000 users and fields more than 400 requests for vehicles on a daily basis. “The 50 vehicles we cut were eligible for replacement. It would have cost the county $800,000 to replace those vehicles, not to mention ongoing maintenance and depreciation expenses that would have been associated with those new vehicles. That’s a considerable savings,” they say.
