Ezzell Trucking, a diverse company consisting of six major divisions with a fleet of 180 tractors and 550 trailers, has announced today that it will begin utilizing Expert FuelŪ and Out of Route/ETA AlertŪ software from Integrated Decision Support Corporation (Integrated).
Currently saving existing clients between 4 and 10 cents per gallon, Expert Fuel is designed to impact the bottom line by minimizing fuel costs by providing an optimal fuel plan at the time of dispatch. By taking advantage of the variation of fuel price by geographic location and between fuel networks, Expert Fuel creates fuel savings by determining the appropriate fuel locations to utilize and the corresponding amount of fuel to be purchased at each location. Out of Route/ETA Alert is a real-time management tool integrated into the Expert Fuel optimization to minimize out-of-route miles and service failures.
"We plan for Expert Fuel and Out of Route/ETA Alert to help us significantly lower our fueling costs and to improve fuel management while providing added service and security that we can pass on to our customers," said Grover Ezzell, President of Ezzell Trucking, Inc. "Our trucks are equipped with Qualcomm satellite tracking devices which allows our dispatchers immediate access concerning our customers' shipments. Because the fuel solution is sent via Qualcomm directly to the truck, the process is simple and seamless for our drivers and management team."
"We are very pleased with Ezzell's decision to utilize our truckload decision support systems and especially excited that Ezzell saw the power of integrating the two systems to maximize the return on their investment," said David Harris, Director of Sales for Integrated.
