FuelQuip Fuel Management System Enhances Glover’s Coaches Fuelling Operations

 In Installations

Effective fuel management is essential when fuel usage is such a significant operating cost.

Glover’s Coaches Ltd felt it was imperative to improve the efficiency of their system as it was dated, a drain on resources and providing inaccurate fuel figures.

Directors Steve & Heather Mason approached FuelQuip Ltd who specialise in supplying fuel management systems, pumps, tanks & other vital equipment to control their fuel expenditures. They requested a new Live Data Cloud Based Fuel Management System be installed at their Derbyshire depot where they have been operating for over 30 years. Expansion has seen the fleet increase to 60 vehicles making them one of the largest privately owned fleets in the area.

The major advantage of a live data cloud based system is that it can be viewed and controlled from any internet enabled device. This provides security, flexibility, and convenience when analysing data. When coupled with Live Tank Gauging, immediate and accurate stock figures are produced. This has now enabled an instant full visibility of Glover’s entire fleet fuel usage.

The enhanced security feature of the FuelQuip Fuel Management System distributes email notifications should there be low stock, disabled pump(s) or unauthorised attempted use. Parameters can be set to restrict the access of fuel during certain hours, 8pm – 5am for example, disabling the pump out of working hours.

The Fuel Management system also displays detailed information on each transaction producing reports on vehicles and tank stocks, mileage, usage of fuel and MPG.

“Our previous system fell short of our expectations due to lack of security and we couldn’t view remaining stock or ullage.” states Steve Mason. “The new FuelQuip system made perfect sense, now we can access the database on-the-go. It has not only improved our fuel usage and fuel stock levels visibility, it has also allowed us to manage the fleet more effectively, reduce unnecessary expenditures and increase productivity.”

Whilst Glover’s Coaches have opted for the FuelQuip web based system, other connection options are available such as USB transfer, hardwired, Ethernet or GSM dial up. It is an adaptable, flexible system, capable of controlling pumps, gate access and vehicle wash at single or multi-depot sites. This enables businesses to future proof sites with the installation of one system, allowing expansion and uniformity.

There is no question that an effective fuel management system is fundamental and the benefits of accurate fuel control are undeniable. FuelQuip’s state of the art fuel management system installation has enabled Glovers Coaches to take complete control over their entire fuelling operations and seen significant, rapid returns by upgrading to cloud based software.
