RoadFlex, a fuel risk management solution provider, recently partnered with NAFA Fleet Management Association. Roadflex’s sponsorship will uphold three key initiatives within NAFA: the NAFA 100 Best Fleets, the Tom Johnson Award, and regional sponsorships across all eight regions covered by NAFA.

1. NAFA 100 Best Fleets

Celebrating its 20th anniversary, the NAFA 100 Best Fleets recognizes outstanding performance in fleet management. Rush Akin, chief revenue officer at RoadFlex, supported and sponsored the program early on for many years. He believes that the program has been instrumental in setting benchmarks of excellence for the fleet management industry. Akin will judge this year's applications.

2. Tom Johnson Award

The Tom Johnson Award, named in honor of the late Tom Johnson, a beloved figure in the fleet community and a close friend of Rush Akin, celebrates individuals who exemplify commitment and innovation in fleet management. Akin, recalling his travels with Johnson to various trade shows, is set to play a role in the awards ceremonies.

"Tom was a visionary in our field, and it's fitting that RoadFlex, a company that embodies forward-thinking, supports this tribute," said Akin.
