Follow on Google News | NAFA to Recognize Those Who Are Going GreenNAFA Fleet Management Association announces The Green Fleet Awards - an honor for those who have implemented or pioneered innovative and creative programs to help with their company's overall "going green" initiative.
By: NAFA The Green Fleet Awards, the first-ever for NAFA, will honor individuals who have implemented pioneering, innovative and creative programs to help with their company's overall "going green" initiative. While many companies are introducing eco-friendly programs, fuels and vehicles into their fleets, this new Award couldn't have come at a better time. "This is a crucial turning point in the fleet world," said Doug Weichman, CAFM, Director, Fleet Management Division, Palm Beach County. "This obligation to our environment, combined with government legislation such as EPACT 2005, is making fleet professionals implement more creative and exciting programs to increase fleet efficacy while reducing energy consumption and vehicle emissions." The Award will be presented to a fleet manager and his/her employer who exemplifies the best of going green. Two awards will be presented; one for a car/light truck fleet and one for a truck/equipment fleet. The Green Fleet Awards differ in other NAFA Awards because not only can you nominate yourself, but you can nominate other individuals as well. This year's winners will be selected by a distinguished panel of six judges representing the fleet industry. These judges will include representatives from the OEMs; fleet service providers; automotive publishers; and car, truck and equipment fleet managers. The criteria for judging will be based on several things including: originality and innovativeness; The Award winners will be notified and invited to receive their awards at NAFA's 2008 Institute & Expo in Salt Lake City on May 5, 2008. The winners will be honored and presented their awards in the Green Zone, a section of the Expo that showcases green products and services to attendees.
