Fleet Advantage’s Matthew Wiedmeyer Receives VMRS Certification

December 10, 2020
No Comments

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL (December 10, 2020) – Fleet Advantage, a leading innovator in truck fleet business analytics, equipment financing, and life cycle cost management (LCCM)

today announced that Matthew Wiedmeyer, Director of Fleet Services, earned the VMRS Specialist Certification from the American Trucking Association’s (ATA) Technology & Maintenance Council (TMC). Less than 300 individuals hold a VMRS Certification in the United States, and those who are certified must exhibit an exemplary knowledge of VMRS standards and reporting.

Wiedmeyer has over ten years of experience in the transportation industry, specializing in mechanical and operational fleet management. Wiedmeyer previously worked in third-party maintenance where he oversaw five locations for a major grocer. He has established valuable communication and best practices between transportation departments and management, which was essential to meeting Fleet Advantage’s clients’ needs. Wiedmeyer is versed in managing maintenance budgets while reducing unnecessary and obsolete parts inventory for clients. He currently works with customers to help develop the best possible practices suited for their maintenance program and individual locations utilizing analytics resources such as ATLAAS (Advanced Truck Lifecycle Administrative Analytics Software).

“Fleet Advantage continues to differentiate itself through ongoing educational initiatives and accreditations that expand the knowledge base of our professional team internally,” said Jim Griffin, COO & CTO at Fleet Advantage. “Matthew has demonstrated his commitment to refining his craft through achieving the VMRS Certification status, and we’re excited to have yet another certified professional on our team.”

Vehicle Maintenance Reporting Standards (VMRS) are the industry standard coding convention for tracking equipment and maintenance information and costs. VMRS concepts have been around for more than 40 years, but industry wide adoption has been slow. With the advancement of technology and access to data, VMRS has quickly gained more traction over the last few years and is now a key focus for many in the trucking industry.
