Anatomy of a Police Vehicle Build
The twelve phases of a patrol vehicle build, from intake to delivery, explained the way the industry actually does it: what happens in each phase, what good work looks like, the mistakes that show up later, and what to check if you are the customer. Written for technicians learning the sequence and for chiefs and fleet managers who want to know what they are paying for.
