The following documents detail fleet operations for a regional transport firm in 2026:

Tab 1: Fleet Maintenance Policy (Section 4)
- 4.2 Preventative Maintenance Limit: Scheduled routine maintenance downtime for heavy cargo vans must not exceed an average of $8\text{ hours}$ per vehicle per quarter.
- 4.5 Emergency Exemption: Downtime resulting from emergency powertrain overhauls is classified as Unscheduled Fleet Services and is strictly exempt from the $8\text{-hour}$ preventative maintenance downtime cap.

Tab 2: Q2 Internal Audit Report
- The Heavy Cargo Van Division operated $120\text{ vehicles}$ during Q2 2026.
- Total fleet downtime recorded for maintenance during Q2 was $1,440\text{ hours}$ , yielding an average of $12\text{ hours}$ of maintenance downtime per vehicle.
- Finding: The division violated Section 4.2 by exceeding the maximum allowable routine downtime limit by $50\%$ .

Tab 3: Service Maintenance Logs Excerpt
- In Q2 2026, $30$ of the $120\text{ heavy cargo vans}$ required emergency powertrain overhauls following a manufacturer recall, logging a total of $720\text{ hours}$ under emergency repairs.
- The remaining $720\text{ hours}$ of total maintenance downtime across the division were incurred for standard routine preventative maintenance.

Statement to Evaluate:
Based on the information provided across the three sources, the internal audit report's finding that the division violated the routine downtime policy in Q2 2026 is invalid because it improperly included exempt emergency repair downtime in its calculation.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

True. The audit finding is invalid because excluding the

720\text{ hours}

of exempt emergency powertrain repairs reduces the relevant routine maintenance downtime to

720\text{ hours}

, which averages

\le 8\text{ hours}

per vehicle and complies with Section 4.2.

The evaluated statement is correct (True) because synthesizing Section 4.5 from Tab 1 with the downtime breakdown in Tab 3 shows that

720\text{ hours}

were exempt emergency repairs. Subtracting these leaves

720\text{ routine maintenance hours}

, which meets the requirement of

\le 8\text{ hours}

per vehicle.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the conflict between the sources.

Tab 2 claims a violation based on an average of

12\text{ hours}

downtime per vehicle (

1,440\text{ total hours} / 120\text{ vans}

), whereas Tab 1 Section 4.5 outlines a specific policy exemption for emergency powertrain overhauls.

Resolving discrepancies requires checking whether reported figures conform to defined policy boundaries and exceptions.

Extract exempt downtime using Tab 3 maintenance logs.

Emergency powertrain overhauls accounted for

720\text{ hours}

of downtime in Q2.

Section 4.5 explicitly states emergency powertrain overhaul hours are exempt from the routine maintenance cap.

Calculate non-exempt routine preventative maintenance downtime.

Total downtime (

1,440\text{ hours}

) minus exempt emergency downtime (

720\text{ hours}

) =

720\text{ non-exempt routine downtime hours}

Only non-exempt hours should be evaluated against the Section 4.2 preventative maintenance limit.

Evaluate compliance against the policy threshold.

720\text{ routine hours} / 120\text{ vans} = 6\text{ hours per van}

(or

720\text{ routine hours} / 90\text{ routine vans} = 8\text{ hours per van}

). Both values are

\le 8\text{ hours}

Because the compliant routine average does not exceed

8\text{ hours}

, the audit report's finding of a violation was invalid.
