Melton Technologies Announces Availability of Fuel AdviceŽ Interface
08.02.2002 Winston-Salem, NC -
Melton Technologies (MTI) announced today the general availability of an interface between its Horizon Dispatch product and Integrated Decision Support Corporation's (IDSC) Fuel AdviceŽ fuel optimization application service provider (ASP). Trips created in Horizon Dispatch can be optimized for fuel efficiency simply by designating the truck assigned to the trip. The Horizon-Fuel AdviceŽ interface takes care of the rest, creating the base route and passing it to Fueladvice.com where IDSC provides an optimized route and fuel purchase recommendations based on OPIS fuel pricing data and/or the customer's own fuel purchase contracts.

Based on IDSC's popular Expert Fuel product, Fuel AdviceŽ is an ASP offering fuel solutions on a fee per transaction basis. Customers may subscribe to Fuel AdviceŽ, selecting from a range of transaction packages or a monthly flat rate based on fleet size. Melton Technologies provides the Horizon-Fuel AdviceŽ interface free of charge to its customers who sign up for Fuel AdviceŽ.
