NAFA Association News

NAFA Fleet Management Association is collaborating with the Nevada Governor's Office of Economic Development to help them establish Fleetworks, an industry focused technology accelerator designed to source, accelerate and validate solutions for future fleet management and operations. With the advent of the sharing economy and the development of mobility-as-a-service business models, vehicle ownership is quickly moving more towards vehicle usership. As a result, our relationship with transportation is changing from one where we identify with particular vehicle(s), brands or even dealerships to a relationship with software platforms, networks, and fleets.

The U.S. website Politico published that the White House has been reviewing the U.S. Commerce Department's auto tariff document since February.
