What is an AVI-enabled fuel management system?

An Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) refuelling system leverages contactless technology to automate and secure the refuelling process, providing a fully contactless experience. Integrating AVI with your existing fuel storage and dispensing systems allows you to streamline refuelling operations and achieve significant cost reductions.

Why should you consider AVI technology?

• Enhanced security

  AVI technology guarantees that only authorised vehicles can access fuel, effectively preventing unauthorised refuelling and safeguarding against fuel theft and misuse. Patented sensors, identification tags, and verification devices authenticate each vehicle's identity prior to dispensing fuel, ensuring precise accountability for every drop.

• Operational efficiency

  AVI systems provide a quick and seamless refuelling process. The automation of fuel recording and payment procedures allows drivers to spend less time at the pump and more time on the road, enhancing productivity and minimising the potential for human error in fuel management. Additionally, AVI systems enable the segregation of fuel tanks on vehicles with multiple tanks for engine and refrigeration purposes.

• Prevent misfuelling

  Operating with passive tags, AVI system installations are both simple and straightforward. The tags can be configured to specific fuel grades, ensuring that the dispenser will not activate if an incorrect nozzle is inserted into the tank, thereby preventing costly misfuelling incidents.

• Cost savings

  By preventing fuel misappropriation and reducing the administrative burden associated with manual fuel tracking, operational costs are significantly reduced. Automated data collection and reporting offer valuable insights into fuel consumption patterns, enabling more cost-effective decision-making.

• Improved management controls

  AVI systems provide robust management controls by detecting abnormal fuel usage and triggering alerts, enabling prompt action. High-quality data delivers a comprehensive view of driver and vehicle performance, facilitating data-driven decisions that enhance fleet efficiency.

• Scalability and flexibility

  AVI-enabled fuel management systems are scalable and can evolve with your business. Whether managing a small or large fleet, this modular solution can be customised to meet your specific requirements. Already deployed in over 40 countries and serving some of the world's largest fleets, including our clients at Tesco, this system exemplifies reliability and adaptability.
