Management
I love that question, Brian. We are – probably one of the things I'm most excited about is how – what we're doing does set us up to be the best fleet management company in the world. And my background, a few years ago, four or five years was managing the largest corporate fleet. And back – and during that time, we developed a lot of logistics and telematics capability to manage the corporate fleets that we did business with. We have a corporate fleet business, Donlen, in fact the gentleman who runs it ran my Australian division when I was at that fleet management company, and he's done a great job with his team to build out great connected car telematics capabilities, and we do have, right now, multiple tests and pilots around some of those capabilities, and we're pretty excited about the results we're seeing. As we put in our new capabilities within the work that we're doing, it's, obviously, reservations and rentals on what we call two really business lines that we're going after and then that's around our retail rental operations, but then there's another focus that does impact that, which is our fleet management, fleet accounting, and treasury capability. So the work we're doing with Deloitte and Infor and IBM around that integrates telematics capabilities as well as all the financing that goes along with managing the fleet and car placements, all sorts of great asset management capability, so it's really taking a step back and saying, if we become the best fleet management company in the world and our capabilities around fleet management accounting, treasury and financing around that, that's probably our best asset as mobility, autonomy and some of these other gig economy things coming into place. So we're very much focused on making sure that we have technology that enables not just a rental business, but then is already translating and transferring into great fleet management for a large delivery in gig and corporate fleets around the world. And the good news is it is global. The work we are doing is in tandem with our European, even South American operations. So we're taking a pretty aggressive approach along with what we're doing to support the rental operations.
