Abstract:The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) developed an Equipment Vehicle Management System (EVMS) to provide a comprehensive solution for managing, monitoring, and controlling fleet operations for both the State Motor Pool and the Equipment program. In developing the system several essential principles were considered, including: preserving the fleet through timely servicing; conducting preventive maintenance and repairs; recording equipment rental rates and financial information; identifying impending fleet repairs to reduce downtime; maintaining an equipment replacement log that identifies equipment age and maximum lifetime; ensuring efficient and economical use of the fleet and manpower; and purchasing vehicles and equipment that are multifunctional and that will support maintenance, engineering, construction and other user requirements. EVMS is utilized by 16 mechanic shops statewide.
