Titan Cloud, which offers fuel asset optimization software, recently acquired Truefill, a fuel supply management and logistics platform.
Integrating Truefill technology into the Titan Cloud platform will give fuel retailers, wholesalers, and carriers tools to reduce fuel supply costs, increase fleet utilization, decrease runouts, lower freight costs, and minimize time required for efficient carrier management, the company reported.
“This is the natural next step in Titan Cloud’s journey to provide fuel operators with the best technology to tackle issues like supply disruptions, price volatility, and inefficiencies throughout the fuel supply chain,” David Freese, Titan Cloud CEO and chief product officer, said in a news release. “Together, we’ll ensure seamless collaboration and complete visibility from terminal to pump, ultimately delivering lower costs and a more positive experience for consumers at every stop.”
In addition to the acquisition, Titan Cloud welcomed Brandon Huff as senior vice president for global fuel logistics and president of global operations, a role in which he’ll play a pivotal part in integrating Truefill’s technology into Titan Cloud, the company said.
“This acquisition marks a real paradigm shift for the fuel industry,” said Huff, Truefill co-founder who previously served as the company’s CEO.
“By combining TRUEFILL’s expertise in fuel supply management with Titan Cloud’s leading fuel asset optimization platform, we are delivering a powerful solution that will transform the way fuel is bought, sold, and delivered.”
The expanded platform will provide more visibility to fuel retailers, wholesalers, and carriers looking to optimize fuel supply chain logistics. Within Titan Cloud’s centralized dashboard, fuel operators will have access to reports to help track, forecast, and negotiate fuel orders and contracts, manage dispatch logistics, and synchronize invoicing.
Titan Cloud’s end-to-end fuel asset optimization platform enables fuel operators to:
- Increase revenue by both reducing and highlighting the root causes of inventory variance across the fuel supply chain.
- Reduce maintenance and operating costs through proactive and real-time monitoring of equipment.
- Manage complex contracts, manage allocations at all terminals, and perform spot buys considering total fuel cost to lower overall supply costs.
- Slash fuel and transport costs while guaranteeing on-time deliveries with AI-based demand predictions, real-time ordering, load and route optimization, intelligent resource allocation, and streamlined third-party hauler integration.
- Streamline the delivery process from dispatch to invoice and automate back-office tasks for effortless invoice matching with a unified dispatch approach.
- Reduce environmental risk through advanced compliance workflows, notifications, activities, and release detection reporting.
“Titan Cloud can now deliver on the long-awaited promise of crystal-clear visibility across the entire fuel supply chain to optimize costs and deliver value,” said John Huettel, Titan Cloud chief revenue officer. “TRUEFILL’s expanded capabilities allows us to extend visibility beyond the retail store and offer a comprehensive view from the fuel terminal to the consumer.”
