Mercury’s strategy is to retain highly trained fleet executives and educate them to become fleet management consultants. The majority of Mercury’s consultants are highly experienced former professional fleet managers who have worked for a wide range of for-profit and not-for-profit firms and organizations, including governments, transit agencies, corporations, utilities, waste management firms, schools, and universities.
Mercury consultants also include former leasing company executives, fleet information system experts, travel and relocation specialists, and statistical analysts.
THE MERCURY DIFFFERENCE
We employ skilled fleet managers, educate them on how to become consultants, and provide them with a diversity of resources to serve our clients. Our consultants have managed fleets at dozens of different types of organizations. This enables us to offer clients sensible advice and resolutions that work in real world situations – not just on paper.
CERTIFICATIONS
Mercury consultants maintain many influential fleet industry certifications and participate in ongoing training and educational forums. Certifications are from recognized institutions such as NAFA Fleet Management Association, National Property Management Association, National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence, and Microsoft Corporation.
