Fuel Management Systems

In the last 12 months, we have seen an uptake in the number of businesses requiring advanced fuel management systems that rely on telematics, or vehicle tracking systems. These decisions are frequently motivated by a desire to tighten up fuel security and prevent fuel misuse and fuel theft from the nozzle.

This kind of fuel management system gives complete control over fuel dispensing back to the business, preventing the filling of unauthorised vehicles and secondary containers, thus eliminating or reducing loss from fuel misappropriation and misuse.

Businesses that manage large numbers of vehicles and/or machinery & plant and who implement EasyFuel+ can expect cost savings through reduced waste and improved efficiencies. AVI refuelling technology increases speed through the pumps, putting drivers back on the road faster and removing the need for manual data entry, and thus potential for human error, all of which helps to ensure business efficiency is maximised and wasteful spending avoided.

This fuel management system will also automatically generate real time-fuelling information highlighting vehicles requiring maintenance and people using excessive amounts of fuel, allowing managers to quickly delve into the data behind these issues, and make business decisions about fleet maintenance and driver behaviour.

Fuel Management Systems will show historical and real-time data enabling future predictions based on historical peaks and troughs in fuel demand, comparing year-on-year. This enables fuel managers to shop for the best prices and purchase at the right time by producing data on the price businesses are paying for fuel and comparing with the average refinery gate price.

Our fuel management systems also provide automated alerts to fuel managers in the case of significant changes to stock levels enabling companies to prioritise environmental response (facilitating maintenance in the case of spills) and security (in the case of theft from the tank).

Telematics technology enables fuel managers to access real-time tracking information of their entire vehicle fleet and this information can facilitate improvements in customer experience.

For example, using tracking can prevent unsanctioned trips that slow down deliveries and provide customers with accurate locations of drivers and their estimated delivery times. Historical tracking data can also be used to establish the most reliable and efficient driving routes, helping to get your deliveries from the warehouse to your customers quicker.
