COVID has obviously changed all that for us currently but that doesn\u2019t mean you have to give up the opportunity to grow, learn, and get better at managing your fleet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.automotive-fleet.com\/10124547\/nafas-2020-institute-expo-virtual-conference-agenda-revealed\">NAFA<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.automotive-fleet.com\/10119628\/registration-opens-for-the-2020-afla-virtual-conference\">AFLA<\/a>, our two largest industry associations have both pivoted away from planned live events to provide their content online now.\u00a0If you couldn\u2019t attend in person or didn\u2019t have the budget to travel across the country to meet with your peers at these events, now you can pay $300-$400 and get some of that same experience without leaving your office (or home more likely).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you want a deep dive into a lot of great content on specific areas of the industry, you can register and participate for free in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.governmentfleetexpo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Government Fleet Experience<\/a>, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fleetsafetyconference.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fleet Safety Experience<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fleetforwardconference.com\/experience\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Fleet Forward Experience<\/a>, or our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carconference.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Conference of Automotive Remarketing<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Product launches, technological innovations, and regulatory changes are still happening. They aren\u2019t taking a break for COVID and neither should you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While we can\u2019t replicate the in-person networking opportunities (or the open bars) with an online event, we can offer a staggering amount of content and information to help you do your job better. And for the first time in history, you can do all of that without leaving your home.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">f you are like most fleet professionals, you are the single source of fleet expertise in your organization. There aren\u2019t many real fleet \u201cdepartments\u201d left. And that means you might be the single point of failure or the likely single source to blame when things go bad. So take this opportunity to learn as much as you can from our online experiences. It\u2019s a greatest time ever to earn a fleet PhD while learning from the best in business about how they are tackling today\u2019s issues.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are at least six companies bringing fleet spec EVs to the market in the next 12-18 months. There are over 30 new fleet spec ICE trucks and vans being introduced in 2021. There are incredible new products being released by the FMCs, the telematics providers, and the remarketers. It\u2019s a lot to keep track of but participating in these online collaborations will go a long way toward helping you navigate through these challenging times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As always, we\u2019re here to help and we look forward to seeing you soon (through a camera lens on your computer for now).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p class=\"p-16-gray\">by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.automotive-fleet.com\/authors\/3336\/sherb-brown\">Sherb Brown<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"posted-by\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.automotive-fleet.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.automotive-fleet.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/consultancy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>CUT COTS OF THE FLEET WITH OUR AUDIT PROGRAM<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/consultancy\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5377 lazyloaded\" src=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 858px) 100vw, 858px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" alt=\"\" width=\"858\" height=\"572\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria.jpg\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 858px) 100vw, 858px\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/advancedfleetmanagementconsulting.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/04\/nueva-ley-auditoria-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" data-was-processed=\"true\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The audit is a key tool to know the overall status and provide the analysis, the assessment, the advice, the suggestions and the actions to take in order to cut costs and increase the efficiency and efficacy of the fleet.
