During this year, of all years, the strength of partnerships between fleets and their suppliers has been tested like never before. The need for flexibility, whether postponing orders, extending contracts or rapidly upscaling deliveries to meet urgent demand at a time of disrupted supply, has tested relationships to the maximum.
