Now available as an online resource
Now available as an online resource, the PVMM is no longer just a static printed manual. It's a living document—updated quarterly through a robust peer review process involving experienced Fleet Managers from across Australia, including members of the IPWEA Fleet Council. This ensures the guidance you’re using is current, practical, and directly relevant to the challenges fleet professionals face today. Whether you're refining internal hire rates, planning capital budgets, or looking to improve workshop operations and maintenance compliance, the PVMM has got you covered.
The online format also means quicker access to new information, evolving best practices, and live templates that make implementation easier. It's written by the industry, for the industry—with real-world examples, case studies, and tools that reflect the depth of knowledge from councils and organisations that run fleets every day.
Access to the PVMM is exclusively available through the annual IPWEA Fleet Subscription—giving your organisation not just the Manual, but a full suite of tools, templates, and support to improve your fleet operations and move up the Fleet Management Maturity curve. If you're serious about lifting your fleet performance and want guidance you can trust, then the PVMM is essential.
In addition to the Manual itself, subscribers also gain access to the Fleet Management Maturity Assessment—an essential tool for evaluating how well your organisation is managing its fleet. This structured self-assessment helps identify where your practices sit on the spectrum from Basic to Advanced and shines a light on areas that may be exposing your organisation to unnecessary risk. For executives and senior leaders, it provides valuable insight into potential gaps in governance, compliance, and cost control—areas that often fly under the radar until something goes wrong. By understanding your maturity level, you can better prioritise improvements, justify investment in fleet systems and staff, and demonstrate sound oversight of one of your organisation’s most significant capital and operational expense areas.
