As the federal government under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau approaches its third year - the midpoint of its current mandate - renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) continue. The ramifications of a still highly-uncertain multi-round set of discussions will be felt by all sectors in Canada, particularly in the auto sector, and more if talks continue along their currently discouraging track.

Thank you for making NAFA your association!

It is the strength of our Members like William Hockridge, Chris C. Mannino, William J. Hoysgaard, Melvin L. Garrett, and Carmine Pascucci that has helped make NAFA the strongest association in fleet management today.

On September 28 and 29, NAFA's U.S. Legislative Counsel Patrick O'Connor and NAFA Vice President Jeff Jeter met with individuals in Washington, D.C., to strategize legislation that will be beneficial to the fleet and mobility industry. This was part of a two-day "fly-in" that concluded with participation in congressional briefings and congressional visits.

Neither NAFA, nor the Institute & Expo (I&E) have any relationship with lodging companies regarding events such as the I&E, and they have no right to use NAFA's name or iconography to promote their services. If you are contacted by a vendor selling I&E hotel rooms, they may not be legitimate. These companies typically ask for payment up front, too. NAFA does not do business with any third-party company for I&E room blocks or housing and will not be held liable for those who are deceived by this misleading notification. NAFA will announce I&E lodging options in December.

One of the most important facets of fleet management is the ability to conduct a lifecycle cost analysis. Unfortunately, for many fleet managers, this can also be one of the most difficult aspects of the job. Thanks to NAFA's Lifecycle Cost Analysis for Fleets presentation, fleet managers can learn all they need to know about lifecycle cost analysis in just three hours!
|
How does lifecycle cost analysis help quantify the decision-making process for determining when a piece of equipment needs replacing? How can you use benchmarking principles to ensure your fleet operates optimally? NAFA’s Financial Management Guide examines these questions and more!
