The City of Ghent uses Ultimo Fleet Management a lot.
The Department Facility Management of the City of Ghent, Belgium, manages about 950 vehicles. This department includes city services, police and fire department. Ultimo Fleet Management is used for this extensive fleet. The department uses the software for an extensive administration, work orders and periodical maintenance. But also for the registration of fuelling, damage management and as a reservation tool for pool cars. The Self-Service module makes it easy for staff to create reservations. Previously the department used a lot of different files for all of these processes. Now Ultimo Fleet Management manages them all.
