The NAFA Foundation, the non-profit, charitable organization aligned with NAFA Fleet Management Association, just released an issue definition paper on one of the big issues in the fleet industry – the relationship between procurement professionals and fleet professionals.

Driven by increasing demands from executive management to control costs, procurement professionals have assumed a position of increasing influence on automotive fleet management during the past decade. This ranges from simply being granted a more assertive role in selecting vehicles and suppliers, to the absorption of fleet into the procurement domain.

Faced with entirely new paradigms for fleet management, it’s vital that all players with significant roles in running the fleets of tomorrow form a strategic partnership based on expanded knowledge of each other’s discipline.

Entitled Creating a More Productive Relationship Between Procurement and Fleet, the NAFA Foundation explores:

  • What this evolution entails
  • How to speak the same language
  • Observations from fleet professionals
  • The “eight dimensions of fleet”
  • How fleet and procurement can build a solid foundation together

This issue definition paper is a must-read for fleet professionals. If you’d like to learn how procurement and fleet can better work together to prepare for the mobility revolution and the future of fleet, click here to download it today, for free!

The NAFA Foundation, a not-for-profit charitable organization formed in 1976 to promote, encourage, support, and assist the fleet industry, drives the advancement of the profession through the promotion and encouragement of education and research projects. It also makes grants and gifts to aid in and support persons, institutions, and organizations in the development, maintenance, and expansion of educational programs related to the management of motor vehicle fleets.
