Pinnacle Launches Symphony.dispatcher Workstation

Browser-based dispatcher tool designed for fuel management
ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Pinnacle Corp. has launched Symphony.dispatcher workstation, its latest browser-based, near-real-time tank inventory monitoring solution designed for fuel buyers and dispatchers.

Pinnacle's Symphony.dispatcher workstation displays multi-ATG information graphically and in real-time speeds, enabling operators to quickly respond. The graphical view provides operators the ability to quickly and accurately assess the situation and respond effectively. With Symphony.dispatcher workstation, operators are also always aware of what inventory they have, and [image-nocss] when they will run out.

Within Symphony.dispatcher workstation, business intelligence tools with innovative features determine a Gallon per Hour (GPH) depletion rate and Product Run Out (PRO), which will forecast the time when inventory will be exhausted. With today's volatile fuel prices, just-in-time inventory is becoming the preferred method of inventory management. By providing this information so readily, Symphony.dispatcher workstation is a tool set that makes just-in-time inventory an easier and more practical business model to implement.

Features:
Real-time inventory monitoring station. Graphical multi-site inventory monitoring at a glance for restocking, delivery acknowledgement, and leak detection. Gallon Per Hour monitoring (GPH). Fuel inventory depletion forecasting/Product Run Out (PRO). Makes "just-in-time" fuel management more practical. Makes dispatcher/fuel buyer multi-tasking more feasible. Minimize costly dispatcher errors. Quickly determine when fuel loads are delivered. Accurately determine when locations need replenishment. According to Pinnacle's director of fuel solutions, Brian Reynolds, "information is one of the most valuable commodities any business can have. Information is the key to successfully accomplish a true just-in-time fuel inventory management program. Fuel prices continue to be volatile and operators are more dependent on split load deliveries than ever before. Symphony.dispatcher workstation assists dispatchers and fuel buyers in making more informed delivery decisions."

Symphony.dispatcher workstation integrates seamlessly with Pinnacle's Fuel Smart open technology fuel management solution.

Symphony.dispatcher workstation is built on the Symphony Fuel Portal Platform. All solutions built on the Symphony Fuel Portal Platform are tightly integrated, sharing vital information with other solutions built on the platform. Symphony Fuel Portal architecture provides the connection for these standalone products to communicate, creating a more robust and complete fuel decision-making technology. Symphony Fuel Portal is browser based, accessible from anywhere, anytime from any device that supports a web browser.
