Outsourcing all or part of your fleet operation to a third party could be one of the smartest decisions you make. It could bring better service, lower costs, and greater satisfaction from your fleet users.

However, all organizations do not benefit from an outsourcing relationship, and although some of your fleet management functions may be good candidates to be outsourced, some responsibilities should remain within your organization.

Answering the Outsourcing Question

Can you get better service for the same costs, or comparable service at a lower cost? That’s the essential outsourcing question. To answer it, you first need to know all of the costs of your fleet operation. You also need to know how efficiently you’re managing the fleet today.

Mercury’s Outsourcing Feasibility Study will analyze all functional areas of your fleet management operation. We will develop cost and service level metrics that give you the full perspective on what you’re paying and what you should expect to receive for your investment.

Our study will enable you to compare your present costs and service levels with those promised by potential outsourcing providers. You can then determine the course of action that’s best for you.

Mercury’s Outsourcing Feasibility Study also includes:

General operations review and pre-outsourcing cost reduction strategies

Identification of hidden costs such as acquisition, vendor performance monitoring, legal, IT - the costs and responsibilities that don’t go away when you outsource

Pinpointing the logistical and contractual pitfalls that could result in unforeseen charges, financial liability, and unacceptable service

Mercury has helped numerous organizations of all types in designing, implementing, and overseeing solid, mutually beneficial outsourcing programs for their vehicle and equipment fleets. We have also helped many others come to understand that outsourcing is not the best option for them.

If you are considering an outsourcing relationship or you are currently outsourcing your operations, put Mercury’s many years of experience to work for you!
