These records become the property of the [organization] at contract termination or conclusion.
c. Vehicle and Repair Order History. A hard copy history folder will be maintained by the Provider for all maintenance and repair work done, including all contracted/commercial work.

Some users may require and the Provider must provide them with a copy of repair orders for their vehicles at the time that maintenance or repair work is completed.
d. MIS Requirements. The Provider will utilize the computerized fleet management information system to establish and maintain an electronic record keeping and reporting system for all services being provided. This information system will provide records of all maintenance, repair and servicing activity performed on each vehicle. The Provider will maintain all data including labor, contracted/commercial services, parts used, and repair codes for each day’s activity, vehicle utilization and other pertinent fleet management information. The Fleet Manager or Staff will have total, unlimited access to the information system, and fleet user departments will also have “read only” access to the information system for their own fleet vehicles, along with the ability to run their own ad hoc vehicle reports as desired.
