Cadec’s PowerVue fleet management solution delivers unprecedented flexibility and configurability to meet each fleet’s unique business requirements for data capture. Specific workflows for customer and product types can be generated to drive the delivery process, validate information and avoid data-entry errors. Data such as GPS location, speed and tachometer readings are monitored by the Cadec on-board computer, which constantly coaches the driver to comply with company and government safety standards and delivers data to enterprise systems in real time. Cadec’s proven EOBR functionality ensures Hours-of-Service compliance and automates fuel tax and PTO rebate reporting. Architected for the enterprise-class fleet, PowerVue’s back-end accelerates the effectiveness of existing transportation, supply chain and safety infrastructure by alerting on exceptions and optimizing fleet performance.

We didn’t set out to build The Energy Engine when we launched this business a year ago. However, it soon became apparent as we worked with energy marketers on their on-line strategies, that there was demand for full-featured business e-commerce solution …something that did not exist. Certainly we knew how to build sophisticated custom systems …we had done it before. But full-featured systems are expensive to build and require ongoing support and enhancement. It was from your comments and questions that emerged The Energy Engine.

The Energy Engine offers several unique advantages for energy marketers.
(a) It’s full-featured eCommerce …it goes well beyond account look-up and bill-pay.
(b) It’s also a marketing engine which allows you to acquire and maintain new customers at a fraction of the traditional cost.
(c) It’s your e-commerce business …your brand, your look & feel, your customers, your profits.
(d) It’s built in a SaaS framework, so it is very affordable with no hardware to buy, no local software to maintain.

E-commerce has become a hot topic in the energy business as companies seek new ways to attract new customers and serve them with less expense. As we’ve worked with companies to implement their e-commerce strategies, we’ve summarized the top 10 reasons while companies are turning to the interactive internet applications to grow their business.

1. The internet is now universal. Usage has tripled in the last decade.
2. It’s convenient to shop on-line and 78% of internet users say so.
3. 76% have purchased on line. Bet you have, too!
4. You can acquire customers cheaper on-line. We’ve done it!
5. You can increase your volume with e-commerce … significantly.
6. You can service your customers better and at less cost.
7. You’re open for business 24/7/365.
8. If you are not doing business on the internet, your customers are looking elsewhere.
9. You’ll be better than 90% of your competitors.
10. You will make more money!

Contact us today! You still have time to have your e-commerce business up and running by next season. Speak to our experts today!

With over 4,000 attendees at this years AREE trade show, it was a very busy 3 days. If we were not able to spend time John Vrabel

New! Introducing The Energy Engine
Finally, A Full-Featured E-Commerce Application for Energy Marketers

Think of it as your on-line business “in a box”.

We didn’t have some grand plan to build The Energy Engine. Quite the opposite, after working with energy companies on their on-line strategies, it became obvious that each of these companies wanted similar capabilities that they couldn’t get anywhere else. So rather than building a custom on-line application for each company, it made much more sense to build The Energy Engine. Now each company can have a complete full-featured on-line business but the cost is shared between all the companies. So now you can operate your own on-line business at a fraction of the cost and get to market quickly. Plus, you also get the benefit of our 10 years of on-line energy experience. Invaluable! Contact us for more details.

Complete Web-Based, E-Commerce Engine:

1. Designed by energy marketers for energy marketers.
2. Turn-key, web-based solution (no hardware to buy, no software to manage)
3. Self-contained, stand alone operating system
4. White labeled for your business.
your URL (domain, web address)
your brand, your design, your look & feel
your customers
your pricing
your profits
5. Flexible and modular
6. Exclusive territory (optional)

If you would like to know more, just let us know. A short, no obligation web-demo will answer all your questions. Or, watch our video now to understand everything you can do with The Energy Engine.
