What to know about government fleet transport

Government fleet transport needs a repeatable workflow for agency transfer, auction, replacement, maintenance, and mission-support vehicle moves. The useful unit of planning is not a generic “car shipment”; it is a documented handoff with a known custodian, release rule, equipment need, delivery recipient, and exception owner.
