Effective fleet procurement can be a time consuming and complicated experience, especially with volatile cost components like regionally variable maintenance labor rates and fuel prices. For most fleet managers new to the area

After conducting multiple fleet sourcing initiatives with regional and multinational clients of varied size and nature, we at SpendEdge have learnt a number of lessons.
