Overview

ForeSite SV provides oversight of the accuracy and effectiveness of fuel inventory plans and operations. ForeSite SV gathers critical fuel information from ATGs as well as fuel management, order management, back-office, ERP, and dispatching systems. A rules engine evaluates this information, identifying potential problems with the plan performance. When a problem is detected, it is highlighted along with detailed information about the site, tanks, historical inventory data, weather, and traffic so that supervisors can take corrective action before disruptions to fuel operations occur. Information is organized into a highly intuitive graphical view allowing supervisors to bypass the complexity and detail of source sub-systems.

Key features:

• Real-Time Supervisory View - Accurate visibility into the performance of fuel replenishment operations
• Operations Rules - Customizable rules for evaluating inventory status, projected usage, potential retain/run-out events, and plan deviations
• Inventory Exceptions - Early warning indicators of out of tolerance inventory conditions
• Supervisor Drill Down - Inventory, order, delivery, and sales data captured via automated polling, scheduled import, or manual entry
• Customizable Branding - Private-label branding and configuration options for distributors

ForeSite SV is built on the ForeSite Platform, a flexible technology framework that enables rapid deployments, enterprise-level scalability and availability, enhanced security, open integration, and mobile device access. ForeSite SV easily interfaces with FuelQuest Fuel Management System (FMS); third-party order management, back-office, and POS systems; and ERP applications. ForeSite SV is fully internationalized and localizable. ForeSite SV has native support for English, French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese, and double-byte languages Chinese (Mandarin) and Arabic.
