Q. What are the newest data analytics tools in fuel management?
A. Data visualization is probably the hottest trend in fuel management right now...
A. Obviously, a partner will have more presence than an individual customer. A fleet is just one entity, whereas a fleet management partner might have 20 or 30 accounts in a given region. Most of the FMCs are globalizing. They’re all faced with the same requests that we have. “I’d like to have somebody to handle all my vehicle needs.” But a tire here may not be the same as a tire in Australia or in Singapore. But I want to have a company that I can call and say: “Just help me with this.” So when they look to globalize, they look to their partnerships, and most of them use us for fuel. And they say: “What is your presence and what can you do to help us in our partnership?” There have been opportunities where we partner in other countries with our existing US partners. There have been opportunities where they say: “This is where we’re going. Here’s our roadmap over the next three years. Tell me where you can match up with us.”
