In the fleet industry, one issue continues to rise to the top of nearly every conversation: reducing downtime. Whether you’re managing 50 trucks in one location or overseeing thousands of different vehicles across the nation, getting those assets on the road and in service as quickly as possible, is a top priority. And yet, fleet graphics—one of the most visible, brand-critical aspects of vehicle readiness—are often one of the last steps in the process, and frequently a source of frustrating delays.
At Advertising Vehicles, we’ve heard this challenge time and time again. That’s why we’ve developed our fleet Industry Partner Integration Process, designed to bring graphics to the forefront of the upfitting and delivery timeline—so that they don’t wind up as an irritating afterthought.
Solving the “Last Step” Problem in Fleet Upfitting
Fleet graphics are too often treated as an afterthought. They require vehicles to be prepped in a certain way, installed in a specific environment, and coordinated with teams that might not be integrated into the rest of the vehicle’s upfitting schedule. This can create bottlenecks just as customers are growing more anxious to get their vehicles on the road. Especially if those vehicles are revenue generating assets.
Our solution is simple: integrate.
We work directly with fleet management companies, upfitters, and other industry partners to build graphics installation into the existing workflow—not after it. By assessing current programs and running test integrations when needed, we identify opportunities to streamline the entire process and remove graphics as a point of friction.
Built to Flex with Your Workflow
Whether your clients are looking for full wraps, partial branding, or DOT compliance markings, our integration process is designed to flex with your needs and theirs. That could mean:
- Dedicated install crews at upfitting facilities for long-term or semi-permanent support
- Custom software solutions that connect your scheduling and our production in real-time
- Clear timelines and communication that align with your delivery requirements
We simplify the graphic portion of your fleet program by treating it like a core component of your operations—not an add-on.
For example, if you’re a fleet management company that is currently outsourcing your fleet graphics step to small vendors in the locations that your clients’ vehicles are originating from or where they are headed to, you may struggle with ensuring color accuracy across different printers, or the quality of installation with different installers. By incorporating Advertising Vehicles into your upfit offerings, we take that pressure off your team and ensure that all needs are met for your clients. We know fleet graphics and are prepared to integrate with your process for the best possible solution for your clients.
A Better Fleet Graphics Experience for You and Your Customers
When fleet graphics are integrated seamlessly into the vehicle acquisition and upfitting process, everyone wins. Your clients get their vehicles faster. Your internal teams have one reliable partner to manage all aspects of graphics. And your brand shows up on the road looking sharp, consistent, and professional—right from day one.
Stop letting vehicle graphics slow you down. Let Advertising Vehicles help you turn them into a competitive advantage with our Industry Partner Integration Process.
