Integrated Decision Support Corporation (IDSC), a leading provider of decision support software for the truckload carrier, welcomes Paschall Truck Lines as a new customer of the Expert Fuel® fuel optimization solution. Paschall Truck Lines, Inc. is a premier transportation company operating over 1300 power units throughout the 48 contiguous United States and specializing in irregular route truckload services.
"We plan to utilize Expert Fuel to significantly decrease fuel costs as well as improve efficiency," said Tom Stephens, EVP for Paschall Truck Lines. "This will also further leverage our investments in our ICC and Qualcomm technologies."
Expert Fuel is the leading fuel optimization solution designed specifically for truckload carriers and is proven to minimize fuel costs and out-of-route miles. Drivers receive a fuel plan at the time of dispatch that tells the driver to buy the maximum number of gallons where fuel is cheap and the minimum where fuel is expensive. Fuel plans are generated using best-in-class fuel pricing/routing data and IDSC's unique algorithm to calculate all essential factors--in real-time, and in a matter of seconds. All relevant route and vehicle factors are considered in the solution including: current fuel prices, fuel level, vehicle fuel consumption, state tax implications, fuel network implications, out-of-route miles, route policies, terminal fueling policies, tank fill policies, and driver amenities.
"IDSC's Expert Fuel system continues to earn a reputation for saving customers millions of dollars in fuel expenses every year," said Trey Byars, Sales Manager for IDSC.
