Fleet Services Division Rated in Top 100 of Government Fleets

Did you know that there are approximately 38,000 public sector fleet operations in North America? Did you also know that the Department of General Services Fleet Management Division was just recognized by Government Fleet Magazine as being in the top 100 of those fleets?

The 100 Best Fleets annual award program recognizes and rewards peak performing fleet operations in North America. Currently in its seventh year, 100 Best Fleets identifies and encourages ever-increasing levels of performance improvement within the fleet industry. This year fleets were rated in their performance in 12 categories including: Accountability, Technology Implementation, Resource Stewardship and Competitive Pricing. The program solicited applications from over 19,000 fleets and performance was judged by an independent panel of recognized Fleet Managers including former winners.

This recognition by the government fleet community is further validation of the hard work and high quality services provide by San Diego County’s Fleet Management team. “We are very proud to be in the top 100” said Sharyl Blackington, the Department of General Services Fleet Operations manager. “We are looking forward to the announcement of the top 20 at the Government Fleet Expo & Conference in June.”  

High quality and cost effective fleet services are essential to keeping County departments operating and serving the public. Fleet Management operates a fleet of approximately 3,900 vehicles and mobile equipment including: fire apparatus, law enforcement, snow plows and lawn mowers as well as cars, trucks and vans.
