Tango
Transport, Inc., an industry-leading motor carrier
serving North America, has selected Expert Fuel® and
Out-of-Route/Estimated Time of Arrival Alert® (OOR/ETA Alert)
transportation software from Integrated Decision Support

Expert Fuel is the premier real-time fuel optimization program
providing drivers with guidance on the route to run and the fuel
stops to make in order to maximize fuel savings and minimize
out-of-route miles. Customers can expect a savings of 4 to 11 cents
per gallon per truck, and more when fuel prices are volatile.
Expert Fuel considers all relevant fuel issues including tax and
network implications, route, terminal fueling & tank fill
policies and driver amenities-all within seconds and at the time of
dispatch.
OOR/ETA Alert is a real-time management tool that interfaces with Expert Fuel and the mobile communications system to determine if a driver is out-of-route and/or is going to be late. OOR/ETA Alert doubles return on investment by tracking high-value cargo and hazmat security while reducing costs in out-of-route miles. OOR/ETA Alert also offers proactive swap opportunities for improving equipment and driver utilization and customer service.
"Our software is engineered to drive cost savings and asset control while meeting customer demands," said Dave Harris, VP of Sales for Integrated. "We are pleased to work with Tango Transport and are committed to supporting their business goals."
