Fleet Masters

For nearly 20 years, AEMP and magazine have partnered to highlight the very best in heavy equipment fleet management through the Fleet Masters award program.

The men and women working for these exemplary companies stand as an example of all of the hard work and dedication it takes to be called a Fleet Master.

Technology and innovation are driving this industry forward, but it takes insight and experience from these industry professionals within some of the most successful construction companies in the world to manage this progress for the betterment of business operations.

Through the Strategic Alliance Partnership Media program with AEMP, magazine gives readers a glimpse into the hard work it takes to be a Fleet Master, as well as highlighting a few nuggets of detail from these fleet-management teams meant to help you take your fleet to the next level.

AEMP and look forward to many more years of honoring deserving fleets with the Fleet Masters award.

This recognition is presented to outstanding equipment professionals who excel in meeting the unique challenges inherent in cost-effective, efficient, and effective management of mixed fleets. Two categories of Fleet Master are based on estimated fleet replacement value (ERV): less than $100 million ERV and more than $100 million ERV. The competition is open to the entire industry; membership in AEMP is not a requirement.
