Fleet Management Services (FMS) is the centralized fleet services program. FMS is responsible for the management and oversight of passenger vehicles and light duty trucks.
The program was implemented to reduce the overall cost of employee travel and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To accomplish this, the division of FMS will recommend that you right-size vehicles to match the expected use and provide vehicles to high mileage state employees rather than pay the higher cost of mileage reimbursement.
