Where does all the fuel go?
"Fuel slippage never happens to anyone in the US and only occurs in remote areas like Australia." Look lets face the facts, fuel theft is EVERYWHERE! It is a problem not only facing corporate America but also government as well. If you have an open pump connected to a 10,000 gallon fuel tank, you better believe that with the price of fuel these days, your are going to have theft. It happens in many ways. An employee pulls up to fuel the company truck and fills 5 gallons into a can that he puts into his personal truck every month. That's 5 gallons per month x 12 months totals 60 gallons. If you have 100 employees who have access to your fleet and only 10% of them take advantage of the bulk fuel, your are talking 600 gallons of slippage by the end of the year. Multiply that by $3 per gallon and you have $1,800 in stolen fuel each year! Take that same example on a municipality with 2000 vehicles and a monthly fuel bill of $300,000 and you have a problem! SCI Distribution,LLC's system, RF Fuel puts the manager back in control by using RF technology to identify each vehicle before authorizing a fuel transaction. This ensures that the fuel that was purchased goes where you want and not someplace else. Now that's control! Visit SCI Distribution's website to learn more at www.sciww.com
