TAYLOR, Mich. -- Atlas Oil Co. has announced its investment in the FuelNow Network, a cloud-based platform that automates the supply chain and streamlines the fuel-delivery process.
Using the FuelNow Network (FNN), Atlas has visibility into delivery metrics and business insights that can be accessed from any device, officials said in a statement.
A product from Birmingham, Mich.-based Vixta Solutions, FNN provides Atlas real-time delivery monitoring, automated reconciliation and customer invoicing. It is also a single-source platform for the Taylor, Mich.-based Atlas to manage all of its fuel deliveries, including those that are fulfilled through their network of third-party carriers.
“The ability to manage our carrier network efficiently under one platform is revolutionary, creating major efficiencies in freight validation and customer satisfaction,” said Bob Kenyon, executive vice president and COO at Atlas. “We’ve been able to speed up our order-to-cash cycle and eliminated many manual processes by digitally capturing our delivery documents.”
Kenyon said his team fulfills thousands of deliveries per month and is significantly more accurate in billing and inventory management under the FNN platform.
