Dear Office of Motor Vehicle Management, Overall the consolidation of USCP vehicles has been a success. Through this endeavor we have managed to extremely reduce our fleet lifecycle age and green our fleet in line with federal regulations. Highlights from the consolidation have brought streamlined GSA tag implementation, fuel card program and advantages to the Department through the STR program. The availability for GSA to be able to facilitate USCP on last minute request of vehicles to support our mission has been outstanding and seamless. The FSR assigned to our Department has been very knowledgeable and willing to support our needs and requirements. The only downsides if you will are the small fee’s identified in billing that were not briefed prior to the consolidation agreement. We have since worked out those identified cost accordingly. You and your staff have done a great job working with the USCP and we look forward to continued success. Regards, Marcelino J. Santos UNITED STATES CAPITOL POLICE
