Episode 243: Every Work Order Should End With an Inspection
Épisode 253
jeudi 27 août 2026 • Durée 32:52
Should every fleet maintenance work order end with an inspection? Yes—but that doesn’t mean every vehicle needs a full preventive maintenance inspection every time it enters the shop.
In Episode 243 of The Fleet Success Show, host Marc Canton talks with Drew Morrow, Fleet Success Manager at RTA Fleet, about why an appropriate inspection should be part of every fleet work order—and how documented inspection standards can help fleets catch problems earlier, improve quality control, mitigate risk, and return safer, more reliable assets to service.
The principle is simple: If a vehicle is already in your shop, take the opportunity to look at it.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn
Why every fleet work order should include an appropriate inspection
How to determine the right inspection scope based on the asset and repair
Why technicians shouldn't develop “blinders” around the original work order complaint
How inspection checklists create consistent expectations for technicians
Why QA/QC matters when vehicles return from outside maintenance vendors
How documented inspections and maintenance records support risk mitigation
Why PM compliance and asset history should influence inspection decisions
How inspections can improve fleet availability and stakeholder confidence
Why fleet leaders should view inspections as part of their responsibility for vehicle safety and stewardship

Episode 242: Rethinking the Modern Motor Pool
Épisode 252
jeudi 20 août 2026 • Durée 38:18
Every motor pool eventually hits the same wall: you either buy enough vehicles to cover your busiest day, or you accept that some days you'll come up short. On this episode of The Fleet Success Show, host Marc Canton (VP of Product and Consulting at RTA Fleet) sits down with Sebastian Reszka, who leads public sector sales at Uber, to talk about a third option: using Uber for Business as a flex layer on top of your existing motor pool.
Sebastian explains what Uber for Business actually offers government and education fleets, how billing, vehicle-class restrictions, time windows, and destination controls work, and why Uber aims to roll a new program out in under a week. Marc and Sebastian also get into RTA's 80/20 rule of thumb for motor pool sizing, real public-sector rollouts (GSA, Long Beach, Portland), and whether micro-mobility (yes, scooters) is coming to fleet programs next.

Episode 241: How Utah Built the Most Centralized Fleet in America
Épisode 251
jeudi 13 août 2026 • Durée 17:11
Fleet may be a small world, but Utah shows just how powerful that network can become.
In this episode of The Fleet Success Show, Marc Canton is joined by Steve Saltzgiver and Nathan Schafer to look back at decades of fleet management in Utah and the systems, relationships, and leadership that helped shape the state’s fleet community.
Steve shares the story of his time with the State of Utah, including the expansion of its fuel network and the effort to consolidate roughly 30 independent state fleets. Nathan reflects on his years managing fleets in the Salt Lake Valley and how Utah’s network of fleet professionals gave managers a place to compare notes, solve problems, challenge vendors, and learn from experienced leaders.
The conversation also comes full circle as the group discusses RTA’s partnership with the State of Utah Division of Fleet Operations and the connections that brought their careers together years later.
They also dig into a bigger lesson for fleet leaders everywhere: you don’t have to figure everything out alone.
Strong fleet communities create opportunities to benchmark performance, challenge assumptions, share hard-earned knowledge, and ultimately build better operations.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
How Utah developed a highly centralized state fleet operation
How collaboration between neighboring fleet managers solves real operational problems
The value of comparing vehicle, vendor, and maintenance experiences
Why benchmarking can motivate continuous improvement
How mentors and experienced fleet professionals accelerate career development
Why strong professional communities can elevate an entire region’s fleet performance
If you lead a public fleet, this episode is a reminder that fleet success isn’t built through software or processes alone. It also comes from the people, expertise, systems, and relationships that help you continuously improve.
Episode 240: Is AI Replacing a Decades-Old Profession?
Épisode 250
jeudi 6 août 2026 • Durée 49:26
Is AI really coming for fleet technicians? Or is it about to make them more valuable than ever?
Recorded live from the Government Fleet Expo (GFX) in Long Beach, California, Marc Canton and Facundo Tassara have an unscripted conversation covering the biggest trends shaping the future of fleet management. From artificial intelligence and robotics to technician shortages, fleet analytics, benchmarking, leadership development, and government fleet collaboration, this episode explores what public fleet leaders should be paying attention to over the next five years.
The discussion goes beyond AI hype to examine how artificial intelligence will transform diagnostics, analytics, and decision-making—not replace experienced fleet professionals. Marc and Facundo also reflect on lessons from GFX, why Florida government fleets consistently rank among the nation's best, how collaboration drives operational excellence, and why future fleet leaders will need stronger business and leadership skills than ever before.
Whether you're a fleet manager, maintenance supervisor, public works leader, or municipal executive, this episode offers practical insights into how technology, data, and leadership are reshaping the fleet industry.
Key Takeaways
AI will augment—not simply replace—fleet technicians. The hosts predict AI-powered robotics and intelligent diagnostic systems will eventually handle repetitive maintenance tasks while skilled technicians focus on higher-level problem solving.
Context matters more than data alone. AI can analyze fleet information quickly, but fleet professionals must still provide operational context to make good decisions.
Fleet analytics are evolving. Traditional utilization metrics like miles driven often fail to tell the complete story. Future fleet management will rely on mission-based performance metrics instead of simple mileage.
Leadership skills are becoming essential. As technicians advance into supervisory and management roles, communication, coaching, and strategic thinking become just as important as technical expertise.
Collaboration creates stronger fleets. Government fleets that openly share ideas, purchasing strategies, emergency planning, and operational best practices consistently achieve better results.
