Petrol pump maintenance at national scale: ~110,000 fuel dispensers on one platform

Simply C2 runs repair, preventive maintenance and calibration for about 110,000 fuel dispensers at some 70,000 petrol pumps. If you look after a spread-out fleet of metered equipment, such as EV chargers, solar pumps, CNG dispensers or weighbridges, this is the playbook you need, sized for a team of 20 to 50 technicians.

Five things petrol pump maintenance shares with your fleet

Few businesses maintain fuel dispensers. Many maintain equipment that behaves the same way. If three or more of these describe your work, the playbook carries over.

Thousands of similar machines, spread out

The same equipment at thousands of sites, many on highways or in villages with no proper postal address. Every unit needs a serial number, a GPS-pinned site and a history. See installed base tracking.

The site owner isn’t the maintainer

The dealer runs the pump, but a manufacturer or contractor maintains the dispenser. The site owner logs the complaint and needs to see it through to closure.

Metered, so calibration matters

A dispenser measures what the customer pays for. Calibration is a ticket type of its own, alongside repair and PM. See scheduled maintenance tickets.

Downtime costs sales right away

A dispenser that’s down loses sales every hour. Complaints come in around the clock, and SLAs are strict.

Mixed billing

Some jobs are covered by warranty or AMC, and some are billable. Each one has to be checked, estimated and invoiced correctly. See warranty and AMC tracking.

Where the same playbook fits

EV charging

India has over 29,000 public charging stations and more than 200 charge point operators, and public chargers are expected to maintain 98% monthly uptime. Chargers are metered, spread out and judged on uptime, like dispensers.

What carries over: 24/7 complaint logging from site hosts, SLA tracking on every ticket, PM schedules per charger model, and billing against the service contract.

Solar water pumps

Lakhs of standalone solar pumps have been installed under PM-KUSUM. The vendor carries a five-year maintenance cover for each one, often on a remote farm.

What carries over: farm sites pinned by GPS, a complaint from the farmer tracked to closure, and geo-tagged proof of every visit across the maintenance period.

CNG stations

India has more than 9,000 CNG stations. Their dispensers and compressors are the closest equipment match to fuel dispensers.

What carries over: nearly everything. Repair, PM and calibration tickets, 24/7 logging, and spares tracked by part number.

Weighbridges and weighing systems

Like fuel dispensers, weighbridges measure what someone pays for. That makes calibration a regular, scheduled job, alongside repairs.

What carries over: calibration as its own ticket type with its own form, scheduled automatically, next to repair tickets.

How we onboard you

Live in one to two weeks, with someone beside you

You won’t need a 110,000-unit rollout plan. For a team of 20 to 50 technicians, we set up the same building blocks in one to two weeks.

Book a setup call
  1. A call to map your fleet.

    We go through your equipment models, sites, contract types, the SLAs you owe, and how often units need PM and calibration.

  2. We migrate your data.

    Site lists, units by serial number, and warranty and AMC dates, from your Excel sheets or current software. You check it, then we load it.

  3. We set up your tickets and schedules.

    Repair, PM and calibration, each with its own form, plus your estimate and invoice formats.

  4. Your implementation lead takes you through go-live.

    One named person works with you from the kickoff call until your technicians are closing tickets on the app.

Background

Dispensers at franchised petrol pumps, maintained nationwide

The petrol pumps are run by dealers, franchisees of the oil companies. The fuel dispensers at those pumps are maintained under warranty and AMC by our customer.

The work covers repair, preventive maintenance and calibration, with complaints logged 24/7 under strict SLAs. Spare parts come from a central warehouse, and a large field workforce covers the country.

What management wanted
  • Up-to-date asset health.Service records, spares used, defects and repair history for every dispenser.
  • Replacement planning.Rank equipment by performance and forecast obsolescence.
  • Better operations.Territory management, route planning and technician utilisation by cluster.
  • Cost control.The full cost of each type of service activity.
Petrol pump maintenance ticket types on Simply C2: repair logged 24/7, preventive maintenance and calibration on schedule, with the SLA tracked on every ticket
How it was set up

Tickets from every channel, assigned instantly

Dealers could log a complaint through the customer portal, the mobile app or the call centre, at any hour. Each ticket went straight to the engineer who covers that territory, and managers could reassign it if needed.

PM and calibration ran as scheduled ticket types, next to repair. Every dispenser was tracked by serial number, and sites were pinned by GPS, because many pumps don’t have a proper postal address. See repair service management.

How it was set up

Itemised estimates, checked against coverage

Before any work was billed, Simply C2 checked the dispenser’s warranty and AMC. Covered work was done under contract. Anything out of warranty or outside the contract got an itemised estimate for parts and labour.

Dashboards were set up for this operation, alerts flagged contracts nearing expiry, and estimates and invoices went out through Simply C2. See customer service insights.

Petrol pump dispenser complaint checked against warranty and AMC: covered work done under contract, uncovered work gets an itemised estimate the dealer approves

What changed

Higher SLA compliance

Instant assignment and notifications meant tickets were picked up and closed faster, with the loop closed with the dealer. See field service location tracking.

Healthier assets, lower spares use

Better scheduled maintenance improved asset health, and spare parts consumption went down. See spare parts usage tracking.

No billing leakage

Itemised estimates and coverage checks meant no free service by mistake and no unbilled work. Dealers could see what they were paying for, which built trust.

More AMC renewals

Alerts on contracts nearing expiry meant renewal proposals went out on time, and more AMCs were renewed.

What this means for your fleet

Same lessons, smaller fleet

You don’t need 110,000 units to have these problems. A 20 to 50 technician team looking after a few thousand chargers or pumps has them from day one.

FAQ

Is Simply C2 only for petrol pump maintenance?

No. The petrol pump deployment is our largest, but the same setup fits any spread-out fleet of similar equipment: EV chargers, solar water pumps, CNG dispensers, weighbridges and more.

Can calibration be tracked separately from repairs and PM?

Yes. Calibration is its own ticket type with its own form, scheduled automatically. See scheduled maintenance tickets.

Can site owners log complaints at any hour?

Yes. In the petrol pump deployment, dealers logged complaints 24/7 through the customer portal, the mobile app or the call centre, and each ticket was assigned to the engineer for that territory.

How are warranty and AMC checked before billing?

Each unit is tracked by serial number with its warranty or AMC. Covered work is done under contract; anything else gets an itemised estimate for the customer to approve. See warranty and AMC tracking.

We maintain solar pumps under a five-year maintenance cover. Does this fit?

Yes. Each pump can be tracked by serial number and farm location, with its maintenance period, complaints from farmers, and a geo-tagged record of every visit.

How long does it take to go live, and what does it cost?

For a team of 20 to 50 technicians, one to two weeks, including data migration and onboarding, which are free for paid customers. The Premium plan, which includes preventive maintenance and spare parts logistics, is ₹5,000 per user per year, billed for every user. The Starter plan is free for up to 10 users. Custom dashboards, reports and other customisations are quoted separately. See license pricing.
