Please cite Bulletin FMRB–9. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A. Background In April 2002, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) requested thatall Executive Branch agencies take a closer look at their fleet managementoperations, particularly the size of their fleets. In coordination withOMB, information was collected from the agencies using a survey developedby the Federal Fleet Policy Council (FEDFLEET) and GSA’s Vehicle ManagementPolicy Division. The results of the survey indicated a number ofdeficiencies in the fleet management operations of the agencies. Aninteragency working group of FEDFLEET members recommended correctiveactions, including the establishment, within each agency, of a documentedstructured vehicle allocation methodology to identify the optimalallocation of the agency vehicles in terms of number and configuration ofthose vehicles. The need for such a methodology was further validated in aMay 2004 Government Accountability Office report on the acquisition andmanagement of Federal motor vehicles. The guidance provided in FMR Bulletin B–9 includes a descriptionof the methodology and resultant optimal vehicle allocation, an example ofthe methodology both in narrative and in standardized format, how themethodology and resultant optimal vehicle allocation should be recorded,the sources for development of the methodology and resultant optimalvehicle allocation, what actions Federal executive agencies should take asa result of the bulletin, and a contact for further information and/or comments.
