• Fire Truck Industry has not followed construction like it once did – since roughly 2013• Why? Local Government Capital Outlays for Fire Protection (page 48)
ü CAGR: Decrease (Page 48)ü % of overall Fire Department Budget for Capital Outlay down (Page 33)
• Will the coming years bring the pent up demand?
Other Considerations for Capital Decrease• Increase staffing needs• Increased EMS Responsibilities – requiring
more staffing• Rising cost of Retirement and Health
Benefits• Wages and OT
