    Strength in Numbers - Sourcewell pledges support to FleetPros Organization

     

    History
    Sourcewell and FleetPros have built a longstanding partnership rooted in a shared commitment to strengthening public fleets and the professionals who keep them running.

    The relationship began in 2016, when both organizations recognized a powerful opportunity: support fleet managers, technicians, and industry leaders with practical education, efficient procurement pathways, and meaningful professional connection.

    Early collaboration focused on training and mentorship, chapter education speaker grants, educational sessions, and support of the FleetCon awards ceremony. These efforts laid the foundation for a partnership built on aligned values, transparency, and mutual investment in the fleet community.

    Over time, the partnership has continued to grow alongside the evolving needs of public agencies. Milestones such as the launch and expansion of the Fleet Management Series 101 and 201 programs established board representation, and ongoing support of the annual FleetCon conference and award ceremony have shaped how Sourcewell and FleetPros show up for one another and for their members.

    Today, the partnership remains focused on three shared outcomes:

    • Advancing education and professional development
    • Supporting operational efficiency and innovation in fleet operations
    • Delivering measurable value through cooperative purchasing solutions

    Together, we continue to invest in the people and programs that move public fleets and communities forward.

    Fleet Management Series
    Sourcewell is recognized as FleetPros’ preferred government procurement partner and invests in year-round engagement with FleetPros members. As a Diamond Partner of FleetCon, Sourcewell supports the association’s flagship conference and connects members to cooperative purchasing solutions.

    Sourcewell holds a seat on FleetPros’ National Board, contributing to strategic conversations that shape the future of the fleet profession. Sourcewell also serves as the exclusive partner supporting FleetPros’ awards at FleetCon, helping celebrate outstanding fleet professionals and programs. Recognizing excellence reinforces what we know to be true: strong fleets strengthen communities.

    Professional Development as a Strategic Pillar
    Sourcewell is committed to advancing community success through education, which is why professional development remains a top priority.

    As part of our commitment to the fleet community, Sourcewell delivers sessions within FleetPros’ Fleet Management Series 101 and 201 programs, helping new and emerging fleet leaders build confidence in procurement, cooperative purchasing and competitively solicited contracts.

    This partnership reflects a shared belief: when fleet professionals are supported with the right knowledge, contracts, and connections, communities benefit.
