The Agile Fleet team created a handy calculator that, with just a handful of inputs, can provide you with an estimate of what you’ll save by right-sizing your fleet and streamlining your processes through automation.
As you explore your options for fleet management, key control, and vehicle sharing solutions, you may ask yourself, “What’s my potential return on investment?”
“In over 22 years of working with hundreds of fleets of all types and sizes, I’ve never seen anything more effective at producing savings than by right-sizing a fleet with automated vehicle sharing.” – Ed Smith, President, Agile Fleet

Mid-sized fleets face a unique challenge—balancing efficiency with rising operational costs and increasing compliance demands.
Unlike major enterprise fleets with access to expansive industry insights, mid-sized fleets often operate with limited visibility, making it harder to control costs, optimize vehicle use, and ensure driver safety.
One powerful tool that can level the playing field is benchmarking. By leveraging data from telematics and industry reports, fleet managers can assess their performance against similar operations, uncover inefficiencies, and implement strategies to enhance productivity and profitability.
For mid-sized fleets looking to thrive in an increasingly data-driven world, adopting benchmarking today isn’t just about solving current challenges—it’s about securing a strong foundation for long-term success.

If you ask exhibitors and attendees at this year’s Work Truck Week how they felt about the 2025 version of what’s become the commercial vehicle industry’s most important conference, you would hear this: Consistent. Productive. Affirming.
For fleet managers, WTW is prized as a condensed opportunity to meet every vendor, partner, customer and interested party in their universe, a benefit mentioned by virtually every fleet manager I spoke with.
“WTW…sets the standard when it comes to doing great business,” said Bill Bishop, SVP of Sales and Marketing for asset remarketer FLD. He added, “It’s also the place where important trends are identified and ideas take shape; we exchange a lot of great information here.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better week,” Steve Carey, NTEA President beamed. “People were obviously excited to be at the event and are already actively looking forward to next year.”

The fleet industry has long been plagued by the persistent issue of fraud, especially with used vehicle transactions. For years, fleet operators and their financing partners have been hesitant to offload aging inventory directly to private buyers in the private marketplace.
This reluctance stemmed from the lack of access to robust identity verification and fraud prevention tools, which left fleets and lenders vulnerable and exposed to fraudulent transactions.
However, the landscape is changing, thanks to the advent of new data technology platforms that offer comprehensive solutions to these long-standing issues.
When fleet operators leverage advanced security measures such as driver’s license verification, facial recognition, and mobile phone record checks, these platforms offer a comprehensive solution that prioritizes safety, efficiency, and transparency.
