NAFA'S Vehicle Classification System

ISELIN, NJ, September 12, 2006 – The National Association of Fleet Administrators, Inc. (NAFA) has announced the introduction of official copies of its Vehicle Classification System, which are now available for E-Download on the NAFA homepage. 

Now available as an e-Download, the NAFA Standard Vehicle and Equipment Classification Code addresses the deficiencies of the various classification schemes in use today. Other classification systems are specific to a particular aspect of fleet management, with little commonality between each scheme, resulting in major obstacles to the sharing of data.  The NAFA System overcomes these problems, so that all fleet managers may use it as a cross-reference to other systems.

The NAFA classification scheme is the only coding system that meets the following criteria:

• A fleet can use it as a vehicle and equipment classification system.
• It is comprehensive enough to apply to any fleet application.
• It is flexible enough to be customized to any fleet application.
• It is intuitive such that any given vehicle or equipment fits only one category.
• Other classification schemes can be cross-referenced into it.

By simply clicking on the homepage link, a fleet manager can download a fully functional, user friendly excel file and simply start using it. 

The NAFA Classification Scheme is the only coding system that may be customized to any fleet application.  The system is intuitive – any given vehicle or equipment will fit just one category.

Formerly available as part of the NAFA best-seller,Fleet Maintenance Staffing Guide, official copies may be purchased and downloaded from the NAFA Store at www.nafa.org/store. Due to the nature of this product as an interactive electronic file for customization, only online orders are accepted.

The National Association of Fleet Administrators, Inc. (NAFA) is a not-for-profit, individual membership professional society serving the needs of Members who manage fleets of automobiles, SUVs, trucks, vans and a wide range of specialized mobile equipment for organizations in the United States and Canada.
