    Fleet maintenance is the process fleet manager utilizes to manage fleet and asset information from acquisition to disposal. It helps the companies reduce costs, improve efficiency and safety. Second Harvest of Metrolina Food Bank (SHMETROLINA) distributed over 70 million pounds of food and household items to approximately 800 partner agencies in 2019. With the critical need for transportation for distribution, a vehicle experiencing downtime will disrupt scheduled routes to partner agencies and increase repair costs for SHMETROLINA.
