FuelClinic Fleet Ecosystem helps fleet owners save money, improve on-road safety, reduce carbon emissions, and cut fuel consumption 10% to 25% - without negatively impacting day to day operations.
FuelClinic Fleet Ecosystem provides tools to teach, track, and manage driver fuel-efficiency skills. The system provides driving "clinics" using world-class eco-driving (eco-safe) training materials that teach fuel-efficient driving techniques based on methods developed over the past ten years.
Drivers are taught proven fuel-saving driving techniques using a variety of training methods that can include hands-on professional instruction, computer-based simulation, and training videos to clearly demonstrate methods. Key points are then tested for comprehension.
Drivers may review these instructions at any time, from any computer, directly from your private company-branded application. Additional training materials can be dowloaded and printed, to take away from the computer.
Drivers then put these techniques to practice right away on the job.
The system continuously measures progress and results, providing meaningful feedback and suggesting ways to further improve efficiency. The system creates "driver performance reports" based on metrics, showing drivers how they are doing, where they can improve, and how they rank among others.
The cycle is then repeated, coaching in areas needing improvement, reinforcing good habits, and encouraging continuous improvement and awareness. Studies at one leading carrier indicate that drivers who get the best MPG are also the safest in the fleet, with 21-37% fewer preventable accidents over drivers who regularly get the worst MPG.
Your business sees both an immediate and sustained return on investment as fuel costs decline, carbon emissions are cut, accident & ticket rates drop, and vehicle maintenance is reduced.
Your fleet is greener, safer, and more profitable.

With eco-driving Training and Continuous Feedback to Drivers, Fleets Can Expect an Average 10-25% Improvement in Fuel Mileage, with at least a 10% reduction in CO2.
In November 2007 the International Transport Forum held a Workshop where sponsors from around the world presented the results of a variety of eco-driving training programs. Presentations at the Workshop quantified the impacts on both short-term and mid-term basis.
Immediately after ecodriving training, average fuel economy improvements of between 5-15 percent on group level were recorded for cars, buses and trucks. The best results for individual drivers showed 20-50 percent improvements in fuel economy under test conditions.
Over the mid-term (<3 years) presentations at the Workshop quantified fuel savings at around 5 percent on average in cases where there is no support beyond the initial training. In cases where there is continuous feedback, average fuel savings of 10 percent are feasible.
Separate studies at Ford Motor Company and Isuzu indicate the average driver can attain closer to a 25% improvement in fuel mileage; and with continued training, feedback, and incentives - most drivers can can maintain these improvements over time.
