Texas School District Saves Taxpayers' Money
AUSTIN, TX, June 24, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- "Prior to Texas Fleet Fuel, we had too many unknowns concerning our fuel usage," says Rafael Salazar, Transportation Director. "We didn't know if we had theft or how much fuel each dept was using. We had card readers that had all kinds of problems and were easy to over-ride by employees. Our system took a lot of manpower to maintain and generated mountains of paper reports that were difficult to understand."
"I knew that Texas Fleet Fuel is what we needed as they have a turn-key operation providing consignment fuel, consistent pricing and easy to read reporting. They installed equipment at each of our 9 locations to control all our fuel, even propane. In order to get fuel, the attendants must key in the bus #, their employee number and the odometer reading so we can receive a mpg reading each time the bus is fueled. This way, we are able to track usage both by vehicle and employee, preventing problems before they get started."
"The best part is that Texas Fleet Fuel owns the inventory, not us. We only pay for fuel that is used and their price was less than what we were paying before. Now we know exactly who is buying fuel and there is no guesswork," continues Salazar. "We saved time and money and now everyone is happy since all departments can account for their fuel. Texas Fleet Fuel made the transition easy for us and already after only 9 months, we're seeing the savings."
Would he recommend Texas Fleet Fuel to other school districts? "Definitely yes," says Salazar.
