With all the you-know-what plumbers have to deal with when they get on the job, company managers don't want anything clogging up the works getting the frontline workers to the jobsite.
For Cornwell Plumbing, a family-owned business in Indiana, that meant getting a handle on fuel cost transparency. They turned to RoadFlex, which provides customizable fuel cards, real-time expense tracking, AI-powered fruad detection, and more to keep inefficiencies from flushing away profits.
"We decided to go with RoadFlex because it gave us the ability to track our spending," said Andrew Cornwell, general manager, Cornwell Plumbing. "It also allowed us to block any non company related charges, because things like that can happen more than you can imagine!"
The fuel cards are accepted anywhere Visa is, including major fuel stations, and give fleet managers the ability to monitor transactions from any device. They can also set spending limits on the cards and disable them remotely.
More broadly, the fleet can drill down into specific driver or vehicle usage to identify any inefficiencies, while also having more insights to better forecast future expenses. This allows Cornwell to track its spending on one location, saving a lot of time, Cornwell said.
"RoadFlex makes reconciliation a breeze," Cornwell added. "It works wonderfully with QuickBooks Online, and it has made a huge difference in tracking the daily fuel spending for our entire company."
RoadFlex also offers 24/7 customer service to minimize downtime, ensuring issues with work vehicles are taken care of quickly.
