RoadFlex Invests in Public Sector Fleet Education and Recognition, Reinforcing Commitment to Industry Excellence

Breaking Communication Barriers: Patriot Aftermarket Partners, Rugged Radios Unite to Keep Teams Connected

RoadFlex, a leading solution provider of fuel risk management, is thrilled to take support for public sector fleets to the next level by partnering with NAFA Fleet Management Association (NAFA). With proven dedication to fostering industry excellence and leadership, Roadflex’s enthusiastic sponsorship will uphold three key initiatives within NAFA: the NAFA 100 Best Fleets, the Tom Johnson Award, and Regional Sponsorships across all eight regions covered by NAFA.

NAFA 100 Best Fleets
Celebrating its 20th anniversary, the NAFA 100 Best Fleets recognizes outstanding performance in fleet management. Rush Akin, Chief Revenue Officer at RoadFlex, supported and sponsored the program early on for many years. He believes that the 100 Best Fleets program has been instrumental in setting benchmarks of excellence for the fleet management industry. Akin, also serving as a judge for this year’s applications, expressed his excitement about RoadFlex’s involvement: “RoadFlex’s sponsorship not only enhances our ability to honor top fleets but also reflects our shared values of innovation and excellence.”

Tom Johnson Award
The Tom Johnson Award, named in honor of the late Tom Johnson, a beloved figure in the fleet community and a close friend of Rush Akin, celebrates individuals who exemplify commitment and innovation in fleet management. Akin, recalling his extensive travels with Johnson to various trade shows, is set to play a significant role in the awards ceremonies. “Tom was a visionary in our field, and it’s fitting that RoadFlex, a company that embodies forward-thinking, supports this tribute,” said Akin.

Regional Sponsorship
Committed to enhancing the reach and impact of fleet management professionals, RoadFlex will also sponsor NAFA’s regional events across all eight regions. These events, encompassing both in-person and virtual formats, aim to provide vital networking and educational opportunities tailored to the specific needs of each region. “Our regional sponsorships are about creating connections and expanding knowledge across the fleet community,” noted Mary Akhavan, Director of Partnerships at RoadFlex.

RoadFlex is known for providing solutions that reflect a deep understanding of the unique needs of the public sector fleet industry. Partnership with NAFA underscores a commitment to putting that expertise to use to elevate the industry through education and recognition.
