Fuel management
Fuel usage
•
A light motor vehicle uses around 10 litres per 100km. (10km to the litre)
•
Heavy Goods vehicles can use up to 50 litres per hundred km. (2km to the litre)
•
For a company to remain viable many long haul trucks drive up to 10 hours a shift.
•
This could mean fuel usage of 400 litres per day.
•
The usage would translate to a conservative R86 000 per month.
•
This in turn translates to over R1 million per year.
Losses
•
Remember fuel is a commodity.
•
Even a tiny loss of 1% on a HGV would
mean losses of R10 000 a year.
•
In reality the losses can be much greater.
•
Another more serious problem can
be under estimating the fuel used to
do a delivery.
•
This can result in massive under quoting
or repeated losses, which could cost you
your business.
If using cash to fill up
• We have had the following tricks reported to us:
• Driver is given a fixed amount of cash to add fuel. Eg R200
• Asks attendant for a R200 slip which is easy to obtain as there are many
R200 transactions.
• Driver tells attendant to add R150 fuel, bring R40 change and keep R10
• Losses on a light motor vehicle doing
100km/day will add up to R8110 per year
• Your driver is using the petrol tank
as his personal ATM
When using cards to fill up
• The slip will indicate the actual fuel dispensed
• But does it all go in your tank?
• Is it syphoned out later?
• Is a drainage system used?
We have the solution
• Digit Fuel Manager
• Works in conjunction with Digit Vehicle Tracking
• Gives you a fuel information on your logbook
• Updates via SMS of fuel theft or fuel added
• Map indication of where fuel was added or stolen
• Graph of fuel for the day
How does it work
• Fuel Tank Level Sensor (TLS)
fitted to the tank
• Digit device fitted to the vehicle
• TLS connects to the
Digit system
• Software gives fuel
