The pricing and cost analysis helps in deriving and forecasting the actual cost of products or services over the forecast period. It considers all the cost components and provides a competitive edge during supplier negotiations. Moreover, the outcome helps procurement leaders understand detailed and fact-based cost drivers for the category.

In this Fleet Management procurement intelligence report, we have estimated the pricing of the key cost components. Vehicle acquisition cost, financing, insurance, fleet management software, fuel costs, and repair & maintenance and other costs. Other costs typically include management fees & taxes, interest rates, depreciation, labor costs, toll & parking costs, and disposal costs.

Costs associated with fleet management are typically bifurcated as direct costs (fixed and variable) and indirect costs. Direct fixed costs include capital expenses such as vehicle finance and depreciation, and operating costs such as passenger/vehicle/cargo insurance and salaries/wages of staff. Direct variable costs include maintenance & repair, fuel, tolls, fines, driver incentives, etc. Indirect costs in fleet management cover expenses pertaining to the general management of the business, such as electricals, office supplies, software solutions, computer systems, etc.

For software solutions, the total cost of development is significantly influenced by a number of key elements such as feature list, UI/UX design, wireframe, development platform, development process, developer’s location, team size, and maintenance.

Every organization and its procurement team look forward to negotiating the best deal while procuring a set of products or subscribing to services. Rate benchmarking involves price/cost comparison of more than one set of products/services to analyze the most efficient combination that can potentially help the procurement team in getting the optimum rate.

The price of a fleet management service depends on the number of services that is being outsourced to an FMC (fleet management company), such as driver management, vehicle management, consulting, type and number of vehicles being leased, number of equipments required for fleet monitoring, etc. In addition, fleet management solution depends on factors such as business needs, features, type of vehicle, software selected, equipment, etc. On average, fleet management solutions cost around USD 13.5 to USD 44.5 per vehicle, per month and can cost as high as USD 495 per vehicle per month for large vehicles such as trucks and buses. On getting into an annual contract rather than a monthly arrangement, the costs can be 13.5% to 32.5% lesser, making it more economical.

Labor cost is one of the key components of the total incurred costs while offering a product or service. Therefore, an organization must decide on whether the focus category should be retained in-house or outsourced if the organization is providing its products or services at competitive prices. If the organization decides in favor of outsourcing, it must understand the difference in the salary structures of suppliers before selecting a supplier and formulating a negotiation strategy.

According to our research, Fleet Managers at Elements Fleet Management and ALD International receive a 10% - 15% higher base salary compared to the salary received by Fleet Managers working in companies such as Mobilease and Ewald Fleet Solutions. However, the year-on-year increment rate in all these companies majorly depends on the Key Result Areas (KRAs).
