Efficiencies in operation • Emergency Management • Added FEMA Rental rate codes and current rates within fleet software for reimbursements • Resource Typing for National Mutual Aid • Issaquah’s Fleet has been cross-referenced for Type and Class • Fleet shop staff being trained to function and operate within the Incident Command System (ICS)
Efficiencies in operation (Cont’d) • Interlocal Agreements (ILA’s) and Cooperative purchasing contract language • Have entered into and encourage others to enter into ILA’s with each other to provide additional resources for purchasing • RCW 39.34 Interlocal Cooperation Act • Provide language within contract boiler plates to provide for cooperative purchasing
Vehicle Usage • Being geographically smaller, mileage is not the best measurement of equipment use. • In 2009 all equipment with engines, started receiving hourmeters so we can track use by via a second meter. • Now we have some additional data to review and help determine actual use and replacement schedules.
Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel • Last year a backup power generator at City Hall failed due to contaminated fuel. • FuelCare® was contracted to clean several generator fuel storage tanks. • Root cause: • Improper roof mounted tank vent that allowed water to enter and accumulate within the tank providing the environment for bacterial growth.
Fleet Maintenance Building • 9541 square foot building designed by Mechanics for Mechanics. • Divided into two main sections (3 work bays each) light and heavy duty. • 5 ton Bridge crane. • Fabrication /Welding area. • Vehicle inspection pit w/trolley lift.
What’s on the horizon • Looking at all aspects of our daily work to remove inefficiencies and wastes • Exploring the costs, benefits, and challenges in creating a combined City and Fire fleet repair facility.
