This guide will not provide instruction on how to write policies and procedures, but rather is will provide suggestions which will enable the fleet manager to construct clear and effective communication. When establishing a new policy or procedure the fleet manger may realize an advantage to concentrate first on the substance, expressing the message clearly, then to craft it into the profile of other communication that is in place with the Company.
