Margin & Performance Diagnostic
A fixed-fee diagnostic for fuel distributors, storage terminals and tanker or trucking fleets. You get every leak, what it costs you per year, and what to fix first.
What we find
Sixteen places we test in every diagnostic. Most operations lose money in three or four of them without seeing it in the monthly P&L.
Who we work with
Wholesale and commercial fuel supply, from rack purchase to customer invoice.
Tank farms and terminals where throughput, losses and demurrage decide the margin.
Hazmat, tanker and general freight fleets where utilization and waiting time set the result.
How it works
Step 1 · First week
Financials, inventory, terminal and fleet reports, under NDA. Your team keeps working as usual.
Step 2 · Main phase
Experienced operators and AI tools test every cost and margin line against your operating data, with short calls to key managers.
Step 3 · Final week
A live review with leadership: each leak in money per year, its root cause, and a ranked list of fixes.
The length depends on size and complexity: about 4 weeks for a single-site operator, up to 12 weeks for a multi-country group. Your quote states the length and fee before anything starts.
