In short

How do I calculate and report fleet vehicle downtime costs automatically?

WebRun pulls a week of vehicle downtime records from Fleetio every Monday, applies your daily cost rate per vehicle class, and posts a ranked downtime cost report to Slack. The report leads with total fleet downtime cost for the week and lists each vehicle by financial impact so leadership can prioritize faster repairs where it matters most.

  • Leadership sees the real dollar cost of downtime every Monday without manual calculation
  • Repairs with the highest financial impact are ranked first so action is prioritized correctly
  • Planned vs. unplanned downtime breakdown supports better PM investment decisions

Questions, answered

Where does the daily cost rate per vehicle come from?

You provide your daily cost rate per vehicle class during WebRun setup, such as revenue-per-day for trucks or lease cost for vans, and WebRun applies it to the downtime days from Fleetio.

Does it include planned maintenance downtime as well as unplanned breakdowns?

Yes. It captures all downtime reasons logged in Fleetio, and the report breaks them out by reason so you can see the split between planned PM downtime and unplanned failures.

Can the report go to a manager via email instead of Slack?

The default delivery is Slack. If you need email delivery, a draft email version is prepared for human review and sending rather than auto-sending, to keep customer-facing messages under your control.
