Earlier consulting work
Fleet procurement informed by total lifecycle costs
A fleet review connected procurement decisions with total lifecycle costs, including buses using alternative and traditional fuel and energy sources.
THE CASE
The decision in context.
The context
A large local government organisation needed a sound basis for fleet procurement and cost improvement. The decision involved more than purchase price: different vehicles and energy sources had different costs over their operating lives.
The contribution
In prior consulting work, the review examined corporate and council fleets alongside bus options using alternative and traditional fuel and energy sources. Lifecycle analysis supported commercial negotiations and procurement choices. Staff training helped transfer the approach so the organisation could continue applying it to wider expenditure.
What the work provided
A clearer basis for the next decision
The work secured negotiated annual savings and gave the organisation a clearer basis for comparing fleet options over their full life. It also strengthened staff capability to pursue further cost improvements.
This example draws on earlier professional experience of our consultants.
