As announced at the Annual Business Meeting which opened I&E on April 8, NAFA has announced the creation of the Sustainable Fleet Standard Program.
"NAFA, in cooperation with CALSTART, has worked diligently for more than 18 months to this end by using the collective brainpower, experience, and expertise of nearly two dozen veteran fleet managers, as well as the good resources at CALSTART," said NAFA President Claude Masters, CAFM. "Now, NAFA is setting the standard for what it means to be a sustainable fleet."
Well into its beta-phase of testing, NAFA’s Sustainable Fleet Standard Program is a self-assessment tool that helps fleets measure and track accomplishments -- and provides recognition for those accomplishments -- based on NAFA’s definition. The Program will aim to demonstrate that fleet is improving air quality through emission reduction; increasing fuel efficiency; and reducing fuel usage. Fleets will be assessed on its own unique progress and real actions.The Program will help track:
- Reducing harmful pollutants
- Lessening dependence on foreign oil
- Improving your fleet’s performance and efficiency
