Abstract: The single most difficull problem I encountered when organizing material for this paper was trying to decide which of the many possible aspects of equipment utilization could be covered within the limited time allotted. Utilization can mean many things to different people. To some it merely indicates a subjective evaluation such as utilization is poor. Others think of it in terms of very precise measurements, comparing actual usage or level of performance with some predetermined standard. In practice we find that there is almost no limit to the number of ways that utilization information is reported. Some of the most frequently encountered fleet statistics are: (a) tables showing the number of vehicles and equipment in the fleet at specified points in time (b) raw data reports showing miles driven or hours of use during specified time intervals (c) reports showing the amount of time the equipment was actually in use as a percent of total time it was available for use and (d) reports showing percent of rated capacity actually attained under different conditions of use.
