# What's a Good Way to Manage Vehicle Maintenance Schedules for a Fleet?

A good way is to give each vehicle its own maintenance schedule connected to mileage or time, triggering an automatic alert as the next service approaches. On **Jestor**, this runs through **Gestão de Frota** with per-vehicle maintenance schedules.

Fleet maintenance tracked only in someone's memory, or a spreadsheet updated inconsistently, risks a vehicle missing scheduled service until a breakdown forces the issue.

## What informally tracked fleet maintenance costs

- Vehicles missing scheduled service because no one remembered to check
- Breakdowns that could have been prevented with timely, scheduled maintenance
- No systematic way to see the maintenance status of the entire fleet at once
- Inconsistent record-keeping making it hard to reconstruct a vehicle's service history

## How structured fleet maintenance scheduling works

- Each vehicle carries its own maintenance schedule, tied to mileage or time
- Automations alert the fleet manager as the next service date approaches
- A dashboard shows maintenance status across the entire fleet at a glance
- Service history stays connected to each vehicle's individual record

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Automated alerts remove the dependency on manually remembering service dates
- This reduces the risk of a breakdown that scheduled maintenance would have prevented
- Fleet-wide visibility replaces piecing together status vehicle by vehicle
- This scales from a handful of vehicles to a large, distributed fleet

| Informally tracked maintenance | Structured maintenance schedule  |
| ------------------------------ | -------------------------------- |
| Risk of missed service         | Alerted automatically before due |
