Cardlock Fueling: What is It?
Cardlock fueling is a controlled fuel access system that is designed for commercial and fleet vehicles to automate any unattended fueling stations that delivers access through a secured card system. This setup will allow fleet managers to monitor fuel usage and costs a lot more effectively and accurately. The origin of a Cardlock system dates back to the 1980s when these systems provided a solution for fleets needing fuel outside business hours. Today, they’ve evolved into sophisticated networks with wide control over fuel transactions for the benefit of commercial fleets. Now, you’re able to track more accurately the vehicles that are refueled, the amount of fuel dispensed, and also the time of transaction, which could help control fuel expenses.
The Benefits of Cardlock Fuel Systems for Fleet Management Systems
By controlling fuel access and monitoring usage, fleets are able to prevent unauthorized fueling. This reduces wasted resources and also helps with budgeting and forecasting expenses accurately since everything is tracked. Better fuel management capabilities come from this distinctly detailed transaction tracking. Fleet managers receive data on each fueling event, including the amount of fuel, the cost, and certain details about the vehicle and the driver too. This information will allow for precise management and efficient allocation of all resources. Give Howard Energy Inc. a call today to learn how we can help with your fleet’s fuel management.
