Fuel Control

1. Why we need to control fuel

2. The role of telematics

3. How we reduce fuel consumption

4. How we reduce fuel theft and fraud

Fuel Control

Fuel Control Challenges

• > 40% of our operating costs

• Increasing theft of fuel from vehicles

• Fraudulent card and electronic transactions

• Manual systems

• Silos of information with very little integration

• Lack of skilled staff (Office and Drivers)

1. Average monthly distance travelled = 12’500 km

2. Average monthly fuel consumption = 6’875 L (55l/100km)

3. Average monthly fuel cost = R 75,625 (R11 x 6’875 L)

4. Average cost per km = R 6,05 (R11 p/l)

5. Average number of fuel transactions = 15 per month

6. Average tank capacity = 600L (R11 x 600 = R 6,600)

7. Total fuel cost per year = R 907’500

Let us look at a typical Heavy Commercial Vehicle

1. 10 km unauthorised travel per day (260km x R6) = R 1’573 p/m

2. 20L theft per week (87 l/m x R11) = R 957 p/m

3. 2L of fuel spilt per week (8,7 l/m x R11) = R 95 p/m

4. Speeding and Idling waste of 0.5 L/100km = R 688 p/m

Average monthly fuel lost = R 3’313 p/m

Total fuel lost per year = R 39’756 p/a

Let us look at a typical Scenario with a HCV

Which Fleet Are You?

Fleet Size Fuel Spend Per Month Fuel Spend Per Year Potential Loss / Opportunity Per Year

10 R 0.76 M R 9.1 M R 0.40 M

50 R 3.8 M R 46 M R 2 M

100 R 7.6 M R 91 M R 4 M

200 R 15.2 M R 182 M R 8 M

500 R 37.8 M R 454 M R 20 M

We can’t manage what we don’t measure

Real time data means we can instantly change driver behavior

Telematics reports highlight problem areas and trends

Telematics replaces almost all manually captured data

Telematics assists with route compliance

Telematics provides actual fuel used per trip*

Small changes have huge impacts

The role of Telematics

* With CAN Bus data

Accurate Date, Time and Odometer at fill

GPS location at time of fill – Reverse GIS = Supplier Name

Drivers Name at time of transaction

Route traveled since last fill

CAN Bus measured fuel consumption since last fill*

Fuel level probe records fuel level before and after the fill

Reports calculate the variance after each fill

Measured fuel consumption by Driver

The role of Telematics

Fuel Control is enhanced with CAN Bus and fuel level sensors.

*CAN bus is available on American, European and some Japanese trucks

1. Proactive engagement with Drivers

2. Training must include telematics data

3. Reward good driving performance

4. Zero tolerance for speeding and idling

5. Manage exceptions in real-time

i. Over Speedingii. Excessive idlingiii. Off route / journey managementiv. Unauthorised stopsv. Sudden drop in fuel level

How we reduce fuel consumption

1. Lock down the vehicle fuel system

2. Revise the Driver’s code of conduct

3. Eliminate all part fills

4. Integrate your dispensing into the telematics system

5. Manage consumption from fill to fill

6. Investigate each variance

7. Incentivise your fuel control staff when detecting fraud

8. Provide a tip off line – Honesty Pays
