Defy Diagnostics is proud to announce that we are now members of the Southeast Governmental Fleet Managers Association (SGFMA) — a respected organization dedicated to advancing the fleet management profession since 1993.
SGFMA serves over 950 members, including fleet and public works managers, supervisors, purchasing agents, and support personnel from cities, counties, state agencies, school districts, and universities across the Southeast. Its mission is simple but vital:
- Foster professional growth and collaboration among fleet managers
- Provide ongoing training, technical sessions, and networking opportunities
- Promote best practices for managing fleet operations and assets
- Share valuable insights on procurement, maintenance, and regulations
For over three decades, SGFMA has been a hub for idea exchange, problem-solving, and continuous improvement in the fleet industry — values we share at Defy Diagnostics.
Why Fleet Managers Should Get Involved
Membership in SGFMA is more than just an affiliation — it’s an investment in your team, your operations, and your professional network. Through conferences, training sessions, and peer-to-peer collaboration, members gain access to strategies and solutions that directly improve uptime, efficiency, and compliance.
For governmental fleets, SGFMA also fosters connections across agencies, creating opportunities to learn from the successes (and challenges) of others who face the same day-to-day realities.
