If you are a Fleet Manager, CFO, President, Owner or Purchasing Department you must have a comprehensive approach to fuel management. Yes, fuel costs are lower now than 2 years ago but they won’t always be and even if they are lower, doesn’t your company deserve a program that provides security of supply and improved economics of your fuel buying? Don’t spend your fleet companies money on extra diesel fuel prices that your fuel companies might be charging you.
Six keys areas should be examined.
- Spend analysis – determine market by market, site by site
- Benchmarking – baseline and compare to published market metrics and establish industry best practices
- Supply strategy – a proper balance of supply security with cost, margin and service contracting- coordinate operations, accounting, legal and safety teams to maximize opportunity.
- Execution – having a playbook is one thing but making sure the plays actually get made is another.
- Audit – all bills, invoices and transactions need to be completely reviewed. Companies make mistakes sometimes. Also, industry statistics say 81% of all fuel stolen is from within your own company.
