Commenting on the change, the newly elected President, Scott Stubblefield, said: “Our organization is a grass-roots group; and we want to appeal to all levels of fleet personnel, from the rank and file members of the shop to the executives in higher echelons of government.

“Arkansas is a state of 503 small towns; but small towns need not think small. Even though they may only have a few vehicles without centralized fleet management, the same cost-saving fleet 'best practices', as discussed at our
meetings, could also save their towns valuable tax dollars. We need to bring our message of emerging technologies, fleet optimization, vehicle replacement and maintenance solutions, to name just a few of the cutting edge ideas we discuss, to others throughout our State – no matter the size of the fleet or the level of the fleet professional. Ours is a professional organization open to all levels of fleet personnel, and our new name better reflects our mission to bring fleet best practices to all fleet professionals in Arkansas and surrounding States.

“Over time, our organization’s logo, website, email address and all marketing materials will be changed to reflect the name change,” Mr. Stubblefield concluded.
