GFMA Fleet Certification
When your operation goes through the CFMO process, the fleet manager along with the entire staff can measure and work to improve the operation's effectiveness, competitiveness and efficiency using a detailed certification self-audit that is based on industry best practices. There are over 120 specific certification criteria addressing 20 critical areas of fleet management. There are also 15 very specific performance standards that will be measured. At the core of the certification are eight foundation categories that will be reviewed. These include:
- Staffing and productivity

- Parts inventory management
- Replacement policy and financial program
