"We are looking to track all of our previous, present, and future maintenance on our fleet on computer software. That way we can instantly pull up every detail and costs that have ever been performed on the vehicle. Also need to be prompted automatically every preventative maintenance job needed for each truck so we can stay as efficient as possible on the job as well as our bank account. We don’t want to spend extra money on a repair that could have been prevented. We currently have about 35 commercial pick up trucks, vans and sprinters. We plan on having 50-60 in the next 5-10 years.We only want to track maintenance and services performed on the vehicles (lettering, body work, accidents, and mechanical maintenance). Inventory is not a concern for this software; we already have that taken care of.Thanks for all your help and advice."
