Are your fueling operations flying above the turbulence?

FuelsManager Aviation

In an industry where daily fueling operations are critical to success, creative process improvements and information technology can save millions of dollars for companies involved. Paper processes utilized today have facilitated fueling aircraft for decades; fueling staff accept the time it takes to overcome known problems and work it into their day. Today, integrated fuel management systems can provide a means to make these processes more accurate, efficient and transparent, which in turn reduces operating costs and improves on-time performance at the ramp.

Our involvement with leading airlines, industry experts and aircraft fuel servicing companies has provided us with extensive knowledge and proven experience you can rely on - no matter how small or large your fueling operation. Contact us today to discuss how a fuel management solution can be implemented across your operations - fuel facility to ramp, airport to airport or continent to continent.

Airlines and service providers are able to improves logistics, data collection and accountability of aviation fuel management operations.FuelsManager Aviation

FuelsManager Aviation is a scalable solution designed for the entire aviation industry – from simple fuel accounting to a fully automated airport. It utilizes the latest mobile computing, web-based application services, wireless communications and paperless ticketing technologies. Airlines and service providers are able to improve logistics, data collection and accountability of aviation fuel management operations. At the ramp, electronic ticketing and dispatch assist in the reduction of flight delays due to aircraft refueling while reducing a company’s carbon footprint. Data obtained from the fuel farm assists in identifying and reducing fuel accounting discrepancies. Seamlessly sharing data with airline systems allows the airline to more accurately identify fuel usage trends to improve reporting and decision making when making fuel purchases.

Capturing Fueling Data - During a manual aircraft fueling process, the fuel agent is required to manually record the start values of a fuel meter register, perform calculations based on the desired fuel loads, accurately fuel the aircraft, record the final meter register values, validate their own manual calculations and then complete a paper fuel ticket. Learn how automation improves this process...


Into-plane Operations - When using paper tickets to manually record aircraft fueling, the fuel agent is required to arrive at the correct aircraft during an assigned time window, manually record aircraft and fueling vehicle meter values, perform calculations, accurately fuel the aircraft, validate their own manual calculations, complete a paper fuel ticket and deliver a copy to the cockpit. Learn how automation improves this process...


Dispatch Operations - Dispatch agents are required to manually compile multiple sources of information, such as flight schedules and load planning feeds to create a daily fueling schedule. Paper fuel tickets are created based on the schedule and are then distributed to fuel agents. If there are changes to the fueling schedule, such as a gate change, the dispatch agent needs to update the fuel agent in person or via radio communications before the change causes a flight delay. Learn how automation improves this process...


Fuel Accounting - Fuel accountants find themselves in a constant battle - before fuel accounts can be reconciled and invoices generated, errors associated with paper tickets must be corrected, lost tickets found and illegible tickets confirmed. Also critical to the reconciliation of daily fuel transactions is the timely and accurate measurement of physical fuel stocks from the airport fuel farm. Learn how automation improves this process...


Fuel Farm Management - The airport fuel facility is the hub of all fueling activities. A facility manager is required to balance fuel receipt, storage and distribution. Before fuel accounts can be reconciled and invoices generated for a day’s transactions, an accurate measurement of physical fuel stocks from the airport fuel farm must be calculated and reported. In many locations, inventory reports are manually generated and distributed, which, in turn, adds to any delay when balancing co-mingled fuel accounts. Learn how automation improves this process...
