Vehicle Equivalency Units (VEUs) help a fleet manager determine how many mechanics' hours they require to service the number of vehicles the fleet holds within a specific number of maintenance hours. Getting that number right makes all the difference between having the right amount of work hours per employee per vehicle, or being under- or over-staffed. Getting your VEUs right is serious business.
If you are a certification student preparing for exams, or someone who just wants to test your threshold of fleet knowledge, take NAFAConnection’s monthly quiz. It can help you on the road to certification, allow you to gain maintenance points, or just measure your skills. Give it a try!
NEW! Existing CAFM®/S® holders can now earn one point toward "Maintenance" (maximum five quiz points in five years) when successfully answering quizzes.
