The prices for fuels are going back up and fleet professionals are feeling the pinch. Don't get caught off your guard. Plan to take part in NAFA's next webinar, Don’t Sit Idle While Fuel Costs Rise: Combat Rising Fuel Costs with Wireless Fleet Management (sponsored by Networkfleet).

This webinar will take place on Tuesday, March 20, 2012, 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.

When it comes to prices at the pump, most industry experts agree that oil prices will continue their upward trend through 2012 and beyond. Fleet managers are rightfully concerned, since fuel is a major line item in their budgets. With this in mind, smart fleet managers are already preparing for unpredictable gas and diesel prices. One strategy is to use a fleet management solution to collect concrete data and, in turn, implement changes that will lower fuel costs. For example, many fleet managers are aware that simple changes, such as more efficient routing, keeping speeds on freeways to 60 miles per hour or reigning in excessive idling, can permanently lower fuel costs by as much as twenty percent.
  • Fleet managers will learn techniques to manage and reduce fuel costs, including:
  • How to monitor an reduce idle time and lower fuel usage
  • How driving the speed limit impacts fuel usage
  • Managing and reporting fuel transactions automatically
  • How to reduce unauthorized driving
  • Creating more efficient routing using technology
  • Leveraging engine diagnostics to cut maintenance and fuel costs
