Abstract:

This is the report from the equipment managers meeting of the Midwestern states. The meeting was held on October 17, 1989, in Peoria, Illinois. The eight states represented at this meeting were: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri and Nebraska. The conference started with reports from the fleet managers. A large portion of the conference was concentrated on round-table discussions of vehicle and equipment specifications. The challenges identified for the 1990s are as follows: responding to budget restraints; obtaining value added support; practicing effective management of time and people; providing adequate training for mechanics; acquiring multi-functional equipment; determining who should make repairs; and meeting environmental concerns.
