ATG System
Automatic tank gauging and fuel-station operations platform, with real-time dashboards for tank levels, dispensers, transactions and sales.
A fuel retailer was reconciling tank levels by hand, a day late, across sites that had no reliable internet.
Station managers dipped tanks manually and typed the readings into a spreadsheet each evening. Head office compared those figures against dispenser totals the following day, which meant a leak, a miscalibrated pump or a theft was discovered a full shift after it happened. Losses were noticed at month end, if at all.
Two constraints shaped everything. Sites lost connectivity regularly, so a browser-only dashboard was not viable — the station needed to keep working offline. And the gauge hardware in the field was mixed, with several vendors and no common data format.
What we built, and why in that order
“We used to find problems at month end. Now we find them during the shift, which is the only time you can do anything about them.”
The platform runs across the retailer's network and reconciliation is no longer a manual task.
Variance alerts now reach head office within the shift they occur in, and the first month of live operation identified a miscalibrated dispenser that had been under-recording for an unknown period. Manual dipping continues weekly as a calibration check rather than as the source of record.
The retailer has rolled the system out to additional sites on the same edge configuration and is scoping delivery scheduling from the same telemetry — using consumption curves to time refills instead of fixed weekly drops. We support the pipeline and advise on the forecasting work.
