FAQs

Learn more about what our clients ask us.

What data do we need for fleet performance analytics?

Useful data includes work order and failure history, odometer or engine hours, downtime records, fuel and maintenance costs, and any condition monitoring results. From these we identify reliability trends, availability patterns and cost drivers across the fleet.

What types of fleets does SAS-AM work with?

We work with emergency services, public transport, defence and resources sector fleets, covering vehicles, buses and heavy mobile plant.

What is condition based maintenance for vehicle fleets?

Condition based maintenance triggers work from the measured condition of a component, such as oil analysis, sensor readings or inspection results, rather than from a fixed interval. It catches developing faults earlier and avoids replacing parts that still have useful life.

When is the right time to replace a fleet vehicle?

The right time is when the total cost of keeping the vehicle starts to exceed the cost of replacing it, while still meeting operational demand. We build lifecycle models from degradation patterns, maintenance cost trends and demand changes to forecast renewal timing and total cost of ownership across the fleet.

How can we reduce fleet maintenance costs without reducing availability?

The most reliable route is a maintenance strategy review based on reliability centred maintenance and your own failure data. It removes tasks that add no value, closes gaps in coverage of critical failures, and moves suitable components from time based to condition based maintenance.

What is fleet asset management?

Fleet asset management is the systematic management of vehicles and mobile plant across their whole life, from maintenance strategy and condition monitoring to renewal planning and replacement timing. It aims to keep the right vehicles available at the lowest whole of life cost.
