June 9th, 2016 – Orpak Systems, a leading solution and service provider for retail gas stations and commercial fleets for more than 25 years, continues to strengthen its market leader position with its 4th generation Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) solution – ForeFuel. As the leader of this segment, Orpak has defined and dominated the market over the years, and continues to revolutionize with ForeFuel – a comprehensive offering featuring nano design technology. As a result of the Company's innovative technology and expertise, the solution is now being implemented in five additional countries.

According to a recent study conducted by Shell in the UK, there is an alarming increase in fuel related fraud that occurs within fleets. With cashless payments on the rise, and fuel being one of the world’s most valuable commodities, fraud has become fleets' main concern. Further research confirmed that 64% of fleets have been the victim of fuel theft or fuel fraud, yet this figure only relates to those who are aware of the fraud that has taken place in their fleet.

The above significantly strengthens the value of Orpak’s ForeFuel's AVI solution, as all of Orpak’s customers report significant savings in fuel expenses due to the use of ForeFuel. This is true for European countries as well, and even more so in the Commercial Road Transport (CRT) markets where the average savings per vehicle may exceed 100 Euros a month. "We are experiencing a growing demand for the ForeFuel solution suite from all territories, including Europe, and a special take-up with heavy commercial fleets fueling on diesel fueling networks," stated Shraga Katz, Vice President of Sales at Orpak.

The solution powers simple and secure refueling of millions of vehicles worldwide, and now also with a new, compact RFID unit for immediate fueling authorization when the nozzle is inserted into the fuel inlet. ForeFuel provides measurable value to both oil companies and commercial fleets by ensuring that fuel goes solely to the authorized vehicle whose account should be charged, while removing the nozzle and trying to fuel another vehicle immediately suspends the fueling. ForeFuel is suitable for any type of vehicle, such as cars, vans, buses, and trucks. Additionally, fleet managers can utilize the system to control their fleet costs and prevent unnecessary expenses whether fueling occurs at their own sites or in retail fuel stations.

Orpak continues to reinforce its leadership position with its cutting edge technology and exceptional solution for both fuel and fleet management. Its innovative and comprehensive solutions provide complete reliability, tight control of vehicles and ground equipment's wet stock and fuel consumption, while significantly decreasing operational costs and fuel expenses by more than 10%.

ForeFuel incorporates unrivaled global AVI expertise, including over 20 years of technical and commercial know-how, and more than 6.5 million vehicles successfully deployed. The global interest in Orpak's technology continues to expand rapidly with new pilots in more than 5 major fuel retailers in Europe, South America, and Asia.

Orpak will be showcasing its 4th generation of AVI solutions, as well as its other fleet management and retail software solutions at UNITI expo 2016, June 14-16, 2016, Stuttgart. Visit Orpak in Hall 3, Booth 3D52.

October 27, 2016 - Orpak Europe, a subsidiary of Orpak Systems, will showcase ForeVision – Orpak’s business insight and optimization software suite – at the Tankstation Vakbeurs Exhibition. This one-day event, which takes place on November 15th in Expo Houten, Houten, The Netherlands, is targeted towards station owners and holds educational sessions and workshops for its visitors with diverse networking opportunities.

A typical retail station creates thousands of data lines each day, fuel transactions, c-store sales, loyalty activities, inventory changes and such. A medium sized network generates millions of data points each month. Analyzing  this data to create meaningful business decisions is challenging, but can provide an incredible powerful tool which influences the way of thinking and conducting business at fuel stations; using Big Data could literally fuel a petrol station’s revenues.

Orpak’s cloud and analytics solutions for retail will be displayed along with a live demo at Orpak’s booth, located in Hall A. Event participants are invited to attend our presentation “Do I Need ’Big Data‘ for my Station Management?” which will be held at 14:00 by Aryeh Frei, Software Solutions Director at Orpak.

Mr. Frei will present two business cases that address various questions such as: Where does collected Big Data come to our help and where it does not? Why is it needed at all in the modern era of a petrol station? Does it depend on the size of the petrol business? What business advantages and new opportunities can we gain through Big Data systems, and how different is the acquired information from the standard management systems which currently are set up in petrol stations?
