Welcome to another thrilling edition of FleetDrive , AfMA ’ s bi-monthly e-magazine where we share the latest in the fleet and automotive industries ! This publication also serves as a platform for us to share the upcoming events , activities , and initiatives we have for our members and the industry at large !
In this July 2023 issue , we ’ re looking at the exciting ways suppliers support fleet operators in Gearing Up for Success . The fleet and automotive industry are witnessing a transformative shift towards sustainability , automation , and connectivity . So , sustaining a collaborative relationship between suppliers and fleet operators is critical .
Suppliers can provide essential components and technologies that propel not only vehicles but also various aspects of fleet management into the future . In turn , fleet operators give feedback to the suppliers , helping them fine-tune their creations to fit our needs perfectly .
Within the pages of this e-magazine , our suppliers will share how their solutions and innovations can serve as the driving force that ’ s shaping the future of mobility and fleet management .
We also have special features from key movers and shakers in the fleet and automotive industries . Paul Oliver will share his insights on how the Fleet Consultant Value Proposition is Evolving . Our 2023 Fleet Manager of the Year Jitesh Singh will be talking about Pioneering Sustainability with Waste Management NZ . Finally , Michael Bradley will talk about how Australia ’ s Real-World Testing is Taking to the Road .
As you know , AfMA ’ s Vision is to “ To elevate the Fleet and Automotive Professions ” and our Mission is “ To link people and knowledge creating best practice safety , sustainability and effective outcomes ”. And so , we ’ re constantly providing professional and personal development opportunities for members and nonmembers alike .
