Audit of the Department of Fleet and Facility Management’s Maintenance of Police Vehicles
Summary
The Office of Inspector General (OIG) conducted an audit of the Department of Fleet and Facility Management’s (2FM) maintenance of the Chicago Police Department’s (CPD) vehicle fleet. 2FM manages CPD’s 3,000-plus vehicles by making replacement purchases and performing maintenance and repairs on behalf of CPD.
Executive Summary
The objective of this audit was to determine whether 2FM meets the industry standard of at least 95% fleet availability for police vehicles, as recommended by the American Public Works Association (APWA). “Availability” is a fleet management performance measure that compares the number of hours a vehicle is expected to be available for use (e.g., 8 hours a day) to the number of hours it is actually available.
