Samaritan’s Purse has recently deployed Chevin Fleet Solutions’ web-based enterprise Fleet Management information system, FleetWave® to gain control over their global fleet running costs while allowing real-time access of complete fleet operational and performance information across more than 20 countries around the world.

Leveraging complete vehicle details from acquisition through disposal as well as statutory driver licensing details; FleetWave® has replaced Samaritan’s Purse disparate and non-integrated databases with a single integrated system that meets each offices 'in country' requirements while providing consolidating visibility and Fleet Management oversight with a single application utilized across the world.
