Fuel Watch

Fuel Management System for New Zealand Fleets

Fuel Card Monitoring, Reporting and Fraud Detection

Fuel is one of the largest operating costs for most fleets. Without clear visibility, it can be difficult to understand where fuel is being used, whether it is being used correctly, and where costs can be reduced.

Argus Fuel Watch is a fuel management system designed for New Zealand fleets. It combines fuel card data with GPS vehicle tracking to give you a clear and accurate view of fuel spend, usage, and behaviour across your fleet.

Track every transaction, verify where fuel was purchased, and identify unusual activity — all in one place!

Take Control of Your Fleet Fuel Management

Fuel Watch helps you move from limited visibility to informed decision-making.

With Fuel Watch, you can:

• Monitor fuel spend across your fleet in real time

• Confirm that fuel purchases match vehicle locations

• Identify unusual or unauthorised transactions

• Track fuel efficiency (L/100km) by vehicle

• Detect non-fuel purchases on fuel cards

• Improve accountability and reduce fuel costs

Fuel Watch Dashboard

The Fuel Watch dashboard provides a simple, visual overview of fuel usage and spend.

It helps you quickly understand:

• Monthly fuel spend trends

• Changes in fuel usage across vehicles or groups

• Where further investigation may be required

From here, you can drill down into specific vehicles, suppliers, or transactions for more detail.

Fuel Reporting for Fleet Management

Fuel Watch includes a range of reports that provide clear, practical insights into fuel usage, efficiency, and behaviour.

Each report is designed to help fleet managers make informed decisions and maintain control of fuel spend.

Fuel Location Report
