Within how many days must Unit COs report changes to the motor vehicle and trailer inventory to the Regional Motor Fleet Managers?

• A. 10 days
• B. 15 days
• C. 20 days
• D. 30 days

Answer: (B)

Timely updates to fleet records are essential for accountability, maintenance scheduling, and budgeting. When a unit’s motor vehicle or trailer changes—such as a new asset added, an asset disposed, or a transfer between units—those changes must be reported to the Regional Motor Fleet Manager within 15 days. This window keeps the central records synchronized with what’s actually on hand, supports accurate inventory counts during audits, and helps coordinate maintenance, replacements, and funding decisions. Reporting within 15 days balances the need for promptness with the workload of administrative tasks; too-short windows can be impractical, while longer windows risk data becoming outdated and less reliable.
