Motor Vehicle Management was established in 1972 as a division within the Department of General Services.  This section started with a small dispatch fleet consisting of twenty-five (25) vehicles. Throughout the years this section has continued to incorporate department and agency vehicles and equipment into its fleet. Today the fleet consists of over 7,000 units. The vehicles range from sub-compact sedans to 50,000 lb. tandem road tractors, and the equipment ranges from lawn mowers to bulldozers. Motor Vehicle Management is now a major division within the Department of General Services and is charged with the responsibility of studying the utilization of state-owned vehicles and equipment to maximize usage, and to establish rules and regulations.

The mission of Motor Vehicle Management is to provide the most efficient and economical transportation possible to all departments and agencies of state government.
