What is fleet inventory management?

Fleet inventory management helps you take stock of all of your assets and monitor their availability and statuses.

Without fleet inventory management, you may have fleet parts or supplies that are unaccounted for — especially if you have hundreds, if not thousands, of assets. Another scenario is you won’t have the spare parts on hand when your commercial vehicles need repairs.


Fleet inventory management helps you forecast the supplies or vehicle parts you need in stock to ensure smoother fleet operations.

Inventory managers who use software to modernize and streamline their fleet asset management process receive alerts or prompts when they’ve run low on a specific product or when they’re overstocked, allowing them to make sure the supplies or parts are ordered on time.
