How HVI Fuel Card Integration Optimized Fleet Spending
Client Overview
A regional construction company operating a mixed fleet of 185 vehicles including pickup trucks, dump trucks, excavators, and service vehicles across 4 states. This established construction operation manages multiple project sites with annual fuel expenditures exceeding $2.8 million while maintaining strict budget controls and project profitability requirements. With fluctuating fuel prices and diverse operational requirements, this company faced mounting pressure to optimize fuel spending while maintaining operational flexibility and project delivery capabilities.
The Challenge
This construction company was experiencing significant fuel cost overruns and spending inefficiencies that threatened project profitability and operational budgets. Their manual fuel management systems couldn't provide real-time visibility into fuel expenditures, leaving critical spending patterns undetected until monthly reconciliation revealed substantial cost overruns and unauthorized purchases.
- 18% fuel cost overruns exceeding budgeted amounts monthly
- $485,000 in untracked fuel expenses creating budget uncertainty
- Manual expense processing averaging 12 days reporting delay
- Unauthorized fuel purchases totaling $85,000 annually
- No real-time visibility into fleet-wide fuel consumption patterns
- Fuel card fraud incidents causing $25,000 in losses per year
- Inconsistent fuel purchasing across multiple vendors and locations
- Unable to optimize fuel purchasing timing and volume discounts
- Administrative overhead consuming 35 hours weekly for expense processing
- Project cost allocation errors affecting profitability analysis accuracy
The Solution
This construction company partnered with HeavyVehicleInspection.com to implement a comprehensive fuel card integration platform that revolutionized their fuel management and spending optimization processes. The HVI solution provided real-time fuel monitoring, automated expense tracking, and intelligent spending controls to eliminate waste across all fleet operations.
