In the fuel management universe, there are alternative technologies to control that are reliable, efficient, and fast to deploy for any organization.
The inventory monitoring unit or LS COM, as it is known, is a great option for companies that need to improve the control and follow-up of their operation. This is an easy-to-use and economic equipment, that works with different communication protocols and operates online without any infrastructure investment.
For instance: a retail gas station with multiple tanks but without an online monitoring tool is losing money daily. The reconciliation process is slow, the information arrives late, and the demand for personnel to control it is high, so the fuel losses are assumed by the station. If the decision is made to hire specialty services, “the solution can be worse than the problem”.
With last year’s prices, a good quality sensor cost USD 2,500, the ATG console cost USD 4,000, and the piping, wiring, and overall infrastructure for deployment, another USD 6,000. Thus, the control of a single tank can cost more than USD 10,000; but the information is not online yet. For software, a station can pay about USD 4,000 USD for a single license to up to USD 40,000 for an enterprise solution. But adding a robust enterprise solution would require an additional infrastructure of servers, racks, and licensing. In other words: More costs.
What does CONTROL IMS offer?
CONTROL IMS offers alternative technologies that are efficient, affordable, and with immediate ROI. We offer a communication unit that connects to most ATG consoles. The equipment can cost around USD 1,500 and can automate the collection of inventories data and can upload the information to the cloud. The communication unit LS COM communicates with the station’s ATG inventory consoles through different protocols and transmits data via LAN, WIFI, or cellular network which makes it versatile in any circumstance to gather and transmit information. The LS COM can be installed in any station to communicate with most ATG consoles in the market to provide online inventory information and maximize the benefits of the infrastructure already in place.
Companies today expect to acquire centralized fast data within their operation. For this reason, CONTROL IMS offers its business intelligence data module, with online information that shows the reconciliation of inventories, among other information. A system that helps our clients to make instant decisions in the case of deviations in their operations.
Conclusion:
In 2022, business leaders have alternatives to make their organizations more competitive. The inventory monitoring unit or LS COM is a high quality, easy to implement, and affordable equipment that makes it easy to move from normal operations to online, without the need of high investment and with immediate impact. 2022 is the year to make important decisions, starting with the right foot, and this can be the first step.
