With tight margins and demanding customers, propane and industrial gasses companies are challenged to keep cost down while ensuring that customers will always have an available gas supply.

Our order generation, route planning, delivery execution and notification solutions are unique in the propane and industrial gasses industry.

Manage bulk and cylinder deliveries through a single solution that:

  • Integrates consumption and other factors like temperature fluctuation into the delivery schedule, to dynamically determine bulk replenishment delivery timing for maximum profitability
  • Tracks delivery execution using real-time GPS-based mobile driver app
  • Communicates with your onboard tanker meters, to automatically read meter information, including volume pumped, and transmit back for real-time inventory and billing

Key Features

  • Order generation solutions that determine when your end customers orders should be generated
  • Continuous optimisation enabled by robotic process automation (RPA)
  • Routing configurations determined by AI and ML
  • Driver apps with real time tracking, and automatic meter reading
  • Customer notifications

Our Technologies

Bestrane Order Generation (BOG)

Our Order generation services determine when your end customer orders should be generated - and passes those orders direct to your planning and optimisation solution for routing. Typically used for bulk delivery operations with vendor managed inventory, reorder trigger points within OGS can be configured based on specific data including based upon fixed frequencies, variable frequencies, day/s of week, seasonal variability, and telemetry readings. Bestrane Order Generation Service gives you control of when you need to service your customers with the right order at the right time, reducing “short” deliveries, eliminating “out of stock” incidents, and lowering transport costs.

Bestrane Customer Portals (BCP)

Web portals that can be designed as stand alone or integrated into your existing customer facing portals. Capture customer orders via portals that integrate directly with Route Planning solutions, or provide customers with direct visibility of their orders with tracking solutions.
