Telemetry to understand how fuel is really used
Controlling inventory and fuel dispensing is only part of the picture. True fuel management happens when you can analyze how every vehicle, piece of equipment, or machinery actually uses fuel.
Control IMS advanced telemetry solutions let you monitor equipment in real time, tracking engine hours, mileage, engine behavior, and fuel consumption.
This allows you to verify whether dispensed fuel is used efficiently and detect operational anomalies.
Connect fuel dispensing to actual consumption
Many companies track how much fuel is dispensed, but cannot verify how it is actually used. Telemetry closes that gap.
With our solutions, you can:
- Record actual operating hours for each piece of equipment.
- Measure mileage or work cycles.
- Analyze fuel consumption per hour or per mile.
- Detect excessive consumption or operational inefficiencies.
- Identify mechanical issues or poor maintenance practices.
- Spot possible fuel leaks or deviations.
This transforms fuel from a simple expense into a measurable operational metric.
Solutions tailored to your operation
Depending on the type of operation, we implement advanced telemetry for vehicles and equipment.
CTAP – Vehicle Telemetry with ECM Access
Advanced engine control and vehicle performance monitoring
The CTAP device (Control Truck Access Point) connects directly to the vehicle’s Electronic Control Module (ECM), providing detailed performance data.
Compatible with J1708 and J1939 protocols used in heavy-duty and industrial vehicles.
With CTAP, you can monitor:
- Actual engine operating hours.
- Odometer readings and distance traveled.
- Idling time.
- RPM, speed, and driver behavior.
- Engine temperature
- Fuel level reported by the vehicle.
This enables precise analysis of fuel consumption and operational performance for each unit.
CEM – Telemetry for Equipment Without ECM Access
Reliable monitoring for industrial machinery
Many industrial machines do not have ECM connectivity. For these cases, we developed CEM (Control Engine Module).
CEM allows you to monitor usage of machinery and equipment without ECM access.
With CEM, you can:
- Detect engine on/off status.
- Track actual operating hours.
- Monitor fuel levels online.
- Log equipment work cycles.
- Schedule maintenance based on real usage.
A robust solution designed for heavy machinery and demanding industrial environments.
Ideal for industries such as:
- Agriculture
- Construction
- Mining
- Port operations
All data integrated in the Control IMS platform
All telemetry data is automatically integrated into Control IMS cloud management software, providing a centralized view of your fleet and equipment operations.
Online dashboard showing equipment status
Automatic logging of engine hours and mileage
Data for predictive maintenance
Accurate fuel consumption calculations
Performance analysis by asset or fleet
Detection of consumption anomalies
This allows companies to move from estimated fuel usage to real operational performance insights.
Insights that improve operational efficiency
By analyzing fuel consumption alongside equipment performance data, companies can:
- Optimize machinery and vehicle performance.
- Reduce excessive fuel consumption.
- Detect mechanical issues early.
- Improve maintenance planning.
- Lower overall operational costs.
The result is a more efficient, transparent, and profitable operation.
FAQ
Fuel telemetry is a technology that allows real-time monitoring of fuel usage in vehicles and equipment, analyzing variables such as engine hours, mileage, and engine performance.
Data includes engine hours, mileage, fuel consumption, idle time, RPM, temperature, and operational performance.
Yes. Telemetry helps identify inefficiencies, abnormal consumption, and potential mechanical or operational issues.
Yes. All data is integrated into a cloud platform for real-time monitoring, alerts, and reporting.
Industries such as mining, construction, agriculture, transportation, and port operations benefit from telemetry solutions.
What is a personalized assessment?
In 30 minutes, we will:
- Identify operational vulnerabilities.

This is not a generic presentation.
It’s a session focused on your operation.
In Industrial Operations, Every Gallon Counts.
More importantly, every accumulated discrepancy impacts profitability. The risk isn’t high fuel consumption. The real risk is lacking full control over it.
