The AfMA Peer Network provides a unique and valuable resource for our members.

Should you have a question about the Fleet Industry and feel we or our members could assist, we encourage you to write in to info@afma.net.au giving clear and specific details on your question and/or the required outcome. We will either answer your question or send it out to a range of members who are experienced in the field you need help with, who have experienced the same process and may be able to assist, or who have a similar organisation and so are placed to help.

With your written permission obtained, we will send your details along with the Peer Network request for assistance that we send out to the selected members and they will be able to contact you directly to offer personalised assistance.

Its a terrific initiative and one many members have take advantage of to date and we welcome your participation.
