US DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE CALLS ON CHEVIN FLEET SOLUTIONS TO HELP WITH FLEET MANAGEMENT OVERSIGHT

Fitchburg, MA.  Following an extensive and highly competitive tender process, the U.S. Department of Commerce has contracted with leading fleet software provider Chevin Fleet Solutions to optimize its fleet of more than 2,000 vehicles.

With the roll-out of Chevin’s web-based enterprise fleet management information system, FleetWave, will supplement the Department of Commerce’s inflexible property management system while providing comprehensive oversight and spend management controls over agency owned as well as GSA leased vehicles across the Department of Commerce’s Bureau’s, Regions and field offices.

By introducing FleetWave, the Department of Commerce will soon be able to manage its fleet through a single organization wide software application providing all of the tactical functionality and strategic visibility needed to insure that the agency can complete its mission to advance job creation, economic growth, sustainable development and improved standards of living for all Americans. 

FleetWave will provide the Commerce Department’s many Bureau’s and fleet coordinators the flexibility to oversee a range of services from the dispatch and management of pooled and assigned vehicles, to the buses, vans and delivery vehicles used to conduct agency business around the world.

In order to streamline its fleet operations while providing all of the unique capabilities needed to support its important mission, a collection of innovative and fully integrated FleetWave modules will be used including vehicle management, motor pool, driver and accident management, maintenance scheduling and external vendor management as well as fuel management for up to two commercial fuel and procurement card platforms.

Commenting on the contract announcement, Ron Katz Senior VP of Chevin Fleet Solutions said: “As a significant Federal agency, the selection process was extremely rigorous; and to have been selected by the Department of Commerce is a testament to FleetWave’s as well as Chevin’s credentials as a true leader within the fleet management industry.”

“It’s a privilege to have the opportunity to work with the US Department of Commerce, and we look forward to helping this important Federal agency exceed its operational goals, comply with presidential mandates all while gaining greater control over all of their fleet operations and costs.”
