How much of your fuel is wasted or misappropriated?

Increasing fuel controls makes obvious business sense with fuel accounting for around 25% of total fleet costs.

However, it would be a mistake to think of fuel costs as fixed, in the last 12 months we have seen increases of more than 30% in fuel costs which is impacting directly on your bottom line, without taking into account other variances like driving behaviours, vehicle usage, mileage, theft and shrinkage.

You would expect then that increasing fuel controls would be a priority, but in a large number of fleets fuel controls are considered to be trivial or petty. For many fleets it is simply too big a job to track every vehicle and every transaction to recover a few a litres of fuel, and in many instances company vehicle drivers consider free petrol to be a perk of the job.

Quite simply you are paying for fuel, emissions and wear on vehicles that the business recieves no benefit from. Having the ability to distinguish precisely between business and personal usage puts you in the driving seat in deciding what you want to pay for, and have count against your green targets, and what you dont. AAG estimate that implementing effective fuel controls will save as much as 10% of your total fuel costs.
