Gwinnett Fleet Management Division has depended on AssetWorks’ FleetFocus fleet management software for over thirteen years. In recent years the county has upgraded to the browser-based version of FleetFocus and implemented AssetWorks’ fully integrated automated fuel management system, FuelFocus. FleetFocus and FuelFocus allow Gwinnett County fleet managers, supervisors and technicians to access all their fleet and fuel information on a single database and provides them with valuable tools to help with service requests, work order management, shop scheduling, utilization, and inventory management. FleetFocus provides real-time labor capture recording actual time spent on a task as it is done. Indirect labor or general time that cannot be billed to a specific work order is also measured in real-time, allowing for true analysis of ‘wrench’ vs ‘non-wrench’ time. The county relies on AssetWorks’ FuelFocus to manage all fuel transactions county-wide. FuelFocus is an Automated Fuel System (AFS) which supports continuous, real-time fuel management over virtually any communication platform and integrates seamlessly with the county’s FleetFocus software application in real-time.

• FuelFocus provides the security features to ensure that the county is only fueling authorized vehicles, which reduces waste and abuse.
