Comprehensive ANPR with Back Office System – MyForecourt
Service Provided: ANPR System Installation using MyForecourt Solution
Client’s Requirements
As a long-term partner of our client, we have supported them across various security needs over the years. Recently, they approached us to address a significant issue on their fuel forecourt, a high volume of fuel thefts and incidents where drivers filled up and drove off without paying.
Their key challenges included:
Frequent fuel theft: Increasing numbers of fuel thefts were costing the business both time and revenue, as staff were often left reporting incidents after the fact.
Drive-offs without payment: The client needed a solution to curb the growing number of drivers leaving without paying for fuel.
Efficient reporting: Reducing the time spent handling and reporting incidents was a priority, allowing staff to focus on operations rather than theft resolution.
To tackle these issues, our client required a reliable, high-performance Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system. Given our established relationship and understanding of their business, they trusted us to provide a solution that would significantly reduce fuel theft incidents and help reclaim lost revenue.
Our Solution – MyForecourt ANPR Integration
We implemented our in-house MyForecourt solution, a powerful ANPR system specifically designed for fuel forecourts. The system was seamlessly integrated with the client’s existing setup, transforming the way their older systems operated.
ANPR System Installation:
We installed cutting-edge ANPR cameras at key entry and exit points of the forecourt, capturing the number plates of every vehicle that entered the site. The system instantly logs the details of vehicles in real-time, flagging those previously involved in fuel theft or suspicious activities as well as other variables.
Automated Alerts and Incident Management:
Our MyForecourt solution automatically alerts staff when flagged vehicles enter the forecourt, allowing them to take precautionary actions. In cases of theft or drive-offs, the system provides immediate access to high-quality footage and number plate data, streamlining incident reporting to authorities and reducing time spent manually reviewing footage.
Seamless Integration:
The ANPR system was designed to work alongside their existing forecourt systems, minimising disruption to daily operations. The transition was smooth, and within a month of using the system, the client saw significant results.
The Results
Within the first month of the MyForecourt system being in use, our client experienced a more than 50% reduction in fuel theft and drive-offs. This not only saved the business from significant revenue loss but also freed up valuable staff time that was previously spent on reporting incidents.
Reduction in thefts: Fuel thefts and drive-offs halved in just one month of the system being operational.
Time savings: Incident reporting became more efficient, reducing the workload on staff and improving overall operations.
Ongoing improvements: As the system continues to operate, the results have only improved, further reducing thefts and protecting the client’s revenue.
The client has been highly satisfied with the results, and the MyForecourt solution has become an integral part of their forecourt operations, continually improving security and reducing losses.
