Utility fleet maintenance software that keeps crews storm-ready

Fleetpal helps electric, gas, and water utilities keep bucket trucks, digger derricks, and service vehicles ready to roll — with preventive maintenance by engine hours, inspection tracking, and per-asset cost visibility in one platform.

The stakes

When the power's out, your fleet is the response

Utility crews restore service — but only if their trucks and aerial equipment are ready when the call comes. Maintenance is what keeps them ready.

$150B / yr

The estimated cost of power outages to the U.S. economy — every hour a line truck is down slows restoration.

Industry estimates

20–30% faster

Storm restoration that utilities achieve with real-time fleet visibility and ready equipment.

Industry estimates

15–25%

The uptime improvement utilities see from shifting to preventive maintenance.

Industry estimates

Bucket trucks and aerial devices require regular ANSI inspections and dielectric testing — exactly the records auditors expect on demand.

Readiness

Keep every truck and bucket ready to roll

Preventive maintenance by engine hour or mile

Bucket trucks rack up engine hours running hydraulics at the pole, not miles on the road — Fleetpal schedules service by engine hours, mileage, or date so equipment is ready before it fails on a job.

Turn an inspection defect into a work order

When a lineman flags a hydraulic leak or boom issue, it becomes a tracked work order in a click — so a safety-critical defect gets fixed before the truck goes back up the pole.

Track inspection and certification expirations

Keep inspection and certification records per unit — including aerial devices — with expiration alerts, so nothing lapses before a crew is dispatched to regulated work.

One view of every vehicle that's down

See every truck and aerial device out of service, in your shop or at a vendor, so dispatch always knows what's ready when a storm hits.

Utility fleet software FAQ

What is utility fleet management software?

Yes. Fleetpal tracks inspection, document, and certification expirations per unit with alerts, so nothing lapses before a vehicle is dispatched.

Does Fleetpal show cost per mile for each utility vehicle?

Yes. Every work order captures parts and labor, and Fleetpal reports cost and utilization per unit, including cost-per-mile, broken down by VMRS component code.

Can Fleetpal manage a mixed fleet of bucket trucks, digger derricks, and service vehicles?

Yes. All vehicle and equipment types live in one system, tracked on the meters that fit each one.

Can Fleetpal support audit documentation?
