About us

Community Fleet Services (CFS) was established with the principal objective of meeting the needs of not for profit/community sector organisations with vehicle and fleet management requirements.

A unique and centralised resource, CFS provides assistance and advice that encompasses the key issues involved in vehicle management including:

what type and model of vehicle to purchase;
how to finance the purchase;
insurance and vehicle maintenance; and
when and how to dispose of vehicles.

Time and resource constraints may impact on the ability of organisations to fully investigate and assess market conditions and opportunities, meaning that organisations may place themselves at a disadvantage resulting in lost savings and increased costs. CFS independent assessment and advice captures the “whole of life” running costs of vehicles. CFS undertakes fleet reviews on behalf of not for profit/community organisations and delivers a detailed analysis that identifies where savings may be achieved.

An analysis by CFS usually incorporates a number of the core issues, including:

vehicle acquisition;
new and/or pre owned options;
financing arrangements;
term of ownership;
insurance and maintenance requirements; and
effective and efficient disposal strategies.

Ultimately CFS, in conjunction with your organisation, can assist with the implementation of the report recommendations. Alternatively, your organisation can choose to implement some or all of the recommendations utilising internal resources. Either way, CFS believes its assessment will leave your organisation more informed and in a better position to make decisions regarding your “whole of life” vehicle and fleet management strategies.
