“My biggest problem was gasoline consumption. We were going through a ton of gas. Now I'm right on budget. I'm using the money I'm supposed to use."
- Director of Operations
"Access to the data has helped Tree Tech to more efficiently manage fuel usage, saving the company approximately $2,000 a month in gas."
- Andy Felix, Tree Tech
"Verizon Connect has helped us lower idle times by about 45 minutes per vehicle per day and to monitor stop by stop how long vehicles are at each site."
- John Puya, diPinto Brothers
Cut speed-related fuel waste to keep engines running safely and prevent vehicle wear that can lead to hazardous breakdowns.
Automate IFTA reporting and fuel card reconciliation to help reduce administrative overhead and streamline daily fleet workflows.
Optimize routing to meet accurate delivery windows without relying on speeding or aggressive driving that drains fuel budgets.
Managing rising fuel expenses and fleet waste requires real-time location intelligence, automated reporting, and proactive behavior coaching. Verizon Connect brings fuel card data, generative AI analytics, and engine diagnostics into a single platform, giving teams the tools to cut wasteful spending and support fleet efficiency.
Our platform handles the heavy lifting of commercial fuel management, helping your business:
Fuel management involves monitoring, controlling, and optimizing fuel consumption, storage, and inventory within a business fleet.
A fuel management system in business operations, is a hardware and software setup used to monitor, measure, and secure bulk fuel inventory and vehicle consumption.
Manage fleet fuel costs by establishing a data baseline for metrics like MPG (miles per gallon) and CPM (cost per mile), implementing strict purchasing controls with fuel cards and cutting idle times via telematics, and proactive maintenance to keep vehicles healthy.
Improving fleet fuel efficiency involves combining telematics data, strict driver behavior policies, and disciplined vehicle maintenance. Some top strategies include cutting idle time, planning routes, preventive maintenance, and right-sizing vehicle workloads.
Fleet fuel cards are generally worth it if your business operates two or more vehicles, consumes a significant volume of fuel monthly, and requires things like mileage tracking, purchase tracking, or fraud prevention for employee purchases.
Fleet fuel cards are specialized cards given to drivers to buy gas and vehicle services. They connect every purchase to a central dashboard so fleet managers can set spending rules, block unauthorized purchases like snacks, and track fuel use in real time.
To maximize fuel efficiency, avoid rapid acceleration and hard braking, adhere to moderate highway speeds (fuel economy peaks around 50–65 mph), keep up with preventive maintenance, and reduce vehicle idling.
Aggressive driving habits like rapid acceleration, hard braking, and speeding lower gas mileage. Excessive idling while parked burns up to a gallon or more of fuel per hour without moving. Smooth, steady driving, obeying speed limits, and eliminating unnecessary idling significantly optimize your vehicle's fuel efficiency.
Focus on key operational areas like vehicle maintenance, route planning, improving driver behavior, and monitoring fuel spend. Implementing driver coaching, telematics, and fuel cards can help lower fuel consumption.
Combine telematics for real-time engine and idle data with fleet fuel cards to track purchases and prevent fraud. Cross-reference miles driven with fuel volume to calculate MPG metrics for your fleet vehicles and coach drivers on fuel efficient driving habits.
