NAFA Fleet Management Association announced that Donald W. Dunphy has been promoted to the position of Communications Manager/Editor. Don joined the staff of the Association in April 2011, and had been Communications Assistant during this period.
"Don came to NAFA with a much different writing background than the fleet industry, affording the Association an inquisitive and unique perspective from which NAFA has benefited over the past three years," said NAFA Chief Executive Officer Phillip E. Russo, CAE. "He’s asking the questions not necessarily as a fleet insider, but as a reporter, so he goes after angles others might miss."
The cycle time for RFPs is now longer than it used to be -- and their primary focus is now all around obtaining actionable data that can be leveraged to make business decisions.
Fleet clients are constantly asking for better and more efficient ways to manage data -- and, via great tools and technologies and highly visual dashboards, that data is being brought to the forefront.
A lot of changes and regulations the government started working on years ago are coming to fruition this year and next. And that means a lot of fleets out there are scrambling to be in compliance ASAP.
