For the fourth year in a row Customised IT Solutions presented Herbst Oil Distribution   Software and other Herbst Accounting and Business Management solutions at the FPS Expo.

FPS Expo is the Annual Trade show even for companies involved in Oil Distribution. This year  it took place once again in the Harrogate Internation Centre & was once again it was a sold out event.

According to the organisers, the FPS EXPO is ‘the most important show in the oil distribution industry calendar. It brings together the leading manufacturers, distributors, equipment suppliers and software companies.’ Few attending would disagree.

It is always well attended by UK & Irish Oil distribution companies keen to see how the latest advances in technology can assist them. From our point of view in Customised IT Solutions it gives us a great chance to see all that is new in the Oil Industry but it is also a great opportunity to catch up with current customers & discuss future developments.

Nobody understands the requirements of the software better than those who use it in the field & we always come away with some new ideas that our customers have suggested.

Apart from our trump card – Herbst Oil Distribution Software, our most popular feature this year was the integration with GPS Vehicle Tracking Company Transpoco. 

There are many benefits to this integration:

1. Save Fuel.
2. Reduce Labour Costs.
3. Proof of Service .
4. Security.
5. Improve Service Levels.
6. Improve communication.
7. Route Planning.
8. Manage Servicing & Fleet Administration.
9. Driver Safety.

Thankfully our current customers will always bring a couple of “friends” to the stand :).

Customised IT Solutions will certainly be there again to show that how our software continues to lead the way for companies in the Oil Distribution Industry.
