Which public fleets do we install for around Orlando?

The City of Orlando keeps its vehicles running out of one compound. The Fleet Management Division, part of the Office of Business and Financial Services, maintains police cruisers, fire apparatus, solid waste trucks and motorcycles at the Fleet and Facilities Compound on South Westmoreland Drive. Back in 2018 the fleet grew 11% in a single year to 2,561 units, and the division moved fire rescue maintenance from mileage to engine hours because idling was wearing the trucks out faster than the odometer showed. Engine hours are exactly what telematics reports.

Police are the biggest single user. The department has more than 400 sworn and professional staff in its Patrol Services Bureau, handles more than 400,000 calls for service a year, and the 2025/26 city budget of $1.8 billion adds 16 more officers. A city audit counted 873 city-owned police vehicles in June 2020, plus 114 leased.

The fleet is also changing fuel. The city's sustainability page lists 1,689 alternative fuel vehicles against a goal of 2,389 by 2030, and more than 90% of its refuse and recycling trucks run on compressed natural gas.

Orange County runs its own fleet of more than 4,000 pieces of equipment, from cars and ambulances to trailers, pumps and boats, and was ranked No. 14 Leading Fleet in North America in 2025. Next to both sit OUC, the city-owned power and water utility with more than 274,000 customers, and LYNX, which runs more than 268 buses across three counties.

Orlando-Specific Considerations

What makes public fleet installs in Orlando different?

How does GPS help with the take-home vehicle policy?

It produces the mileage record the policy depends on. The city's 2023 follow-up review of take-home vehicles noted that Fleet Policy 900.5, the rule for assigning vehicles around the clock, was being updated, and it recommended switching on the GPS mileage feature built into the dash cams on the vehicles that have them. Units without that feature need a GPS device of their own. Either way, the miles and ignition hours land in a report instead of a logbook.

Wiring follows the agency's upfit standard and the platform's install guide.

Will an AVL install interfere with the police dash cam and in-car video?

It should not, and we install so that it does not. We leave the existing in-car video and police dash cam system as it is, run the GPS and AVL unit on its own fused feed, and stay off the lighting, siren and radio circuits. If the agency has an upfit standard, we follow it.

Does an electric or CNG fleet change the install?

A little. CNG refuse trucks install much like diesel ones. Electric pickups and sedans report battery and charging data through telematics, and the device has to suit the vehicle's network, so we confirm the harness for each model before install day. The city's sustainability page lists 100 electric F-150s on order, which is the kind of batch we would plan model by model.

What happens to the trucks during storm cleanup?

They work long days. After Milton, city solid waste crews worked extended hours, off days included, to clear yard waste and mixed piles once contractors had taken the large debris. Trip history from those weeks shows which routes are done and which still need a truck.

Questions From Orlando Fleet Managers

What do Orlando public fleet managers ask us?

How is pricing worked out for patrol car GPS and AVL installs?

Per vehicle, once we know the vehicle models, the platform and the agency's upfit standard. Patrol cars take longer than pickups and are priced separately from general fleet vehicles.

Can you install on leased vehicles?

Yes. We fit GPS units so they come out cleanly when a lease ends, and we can move them to the replacement vehicle.

Do you put dash cams on refuse trucks and public works vehicles?

Yes. We fit AI dash cams and backup cameras on refuse trucks, utility bodies and public works pickups.

Which telematics platforms do you work with?

Samsara, Motive, Geotab, Verizon Connect, Lytx, Netradyne, Zonar, Azuga and the other major platforms. We are an independent Geotab Authorized Installer, so the city keeps its own choice.

Do you work with Orange County departments too?

Yes. We install for county departments, the cities around Orlando, and contractors on public work, at their yards.
