Managed Maintenance: The Rhythm That Keeps Your Fleet Running
You choose what's covered. Slick builds the rhythm around it — scheduled visits, proactive inspections, on-site service. One monthly cost. One team. Full visibility through TruView.
The Traditional Maintenance Trap
You're not maintaining vehicles — you're chasing breakdowns. Multiple shops, unpredictable invoices, zero visibility into what's actually happening.
Unpredictable costs
every shop has different rates, your maintenance spend is a black box
Reactive repairs
you don't catch problems until something breaks
Vendor juggling
multiple shops, multiple invoices, nobody knows your fleet
Zero visibility
you find out about issues after they cost you money
How Managed Maintenance Works
You tell us what you want covered. We build a service rhythm around it.
Inspect
Every vehicle gets a documented multi-point inspection with photos and video on every visit.
Alert
TruView flags what needs attention now and what's coming up, using AI-predicted mileage and service schedules.
Resolve
Our techs handle everything in your managed service on-site. Out-of-scope issues get estimated for your approval — no surprise work.
Optimize
Your dedicated Slick Account Team and TruView learn your fleet over time — usage patterns, wear cycles, seasonal needs. They optimize scheduling, service scope, and parts sourcing so your program gets more efficient every quarter.

The Rhythm in Action
Here is what it looks like when the rhythm works for you.
Routine Visit
Tech arrives for your scheduled oil change and multi-point inspection. Standard rhythm, nothing out of the ordinary.
Discovery
During the inspection, the tech finds the right control arm is worn. Photos taken, finding documented in TruView.
Estimate
TruView generates a detailed estimate — photos, part cost, labor. Sent to you for review and approval.
Resolution
You approve in TruView. Slick sources the part through its HUB network and replaces it on-site.
Without the rhythm, that control arm fails on the highway. With it, it gets caught and fixed for a fraction of the cost.
You Control Every Dollar
Two levers. Both in your hands.
Fixed Monthly Cost
You choose what's covered — oil, fluids, inspections, tires, brakes. That becomes your fixed Monthly Recurring Charge. No per-visit invoicing. No fluctuation. One number, every month.
Add more services and the effective rate drops. Start lean and expand as you see the value.
Your Approval Required
Anything found outside your managed service — a worn control arm, a leaking hose, a failing sensor — gets documented with photos in TruView and sent as a detailed estimate. No work happens without your approval.
You review it, approve it or decline it, and Slick handles the rest. Every dollar is accounted for. Every repair is your decision.
Your Dedicated Slick Account Team
Most fleet services hand you a 1-800 number and a ticket queue. Slick gives you a dedicated team — real people who know your fleet, your schedule, and your priorities.
One call. One team. No dispatch center.
Always Reachable
Call or text your Account Team directly. No ticket queues, no hold music, no starting over with a stranger.
Proactive Scheduling
They manage the calendar around your operations — not the other way around.
Status Updates
Real-time updates on every service event. You know what's happening without asking.
Escalation Handling
Something goes wrong? They own it until it's resolved. No finger-pointing, no runaround.

Started with managed maintenance bundle covering oil, inspections, and tire service for all 40 trucks. Within 60 days, added brakes and corrective repairs.
