First Claim
Patent Images
1. A fuel management system comprising:
- a centralized processor;
a first module of the centralized processor configured to receive a plurality of fuel transaction data points from one or more fuelling stations;
a second module of the centralized processor configured to receive a plurality of vehicle parameters from one or more vehicles;
a third module of the centralized processor configured to process, according to a pre-defined set of rules, at least a part of the data received by the first module and the second module in combination with a set of information associated with each vehicle accessible to the third module, and to generate one or more reports providing a summary of the processing comprising analysis on one or more of fuel consumption, fuel fraud, CO2 emission, driver behaviour and journey breakdown; and
a fourth module of the centralized processor configured to store the one or more reports generated by the third module.
