Objective

In its continuous improvement cycle, Petro Valles wanted to maintain the existing high quality standards while significantly reducing the average refueling time and simplifying the supply operation at its fully unmanned facilities. Petro Valles found in Akron a powerful IoT platform that operates on the Amazon Web Services cloud and allows them:

  • Real-time remote management of fuel prices, tank levels, and supplies.
  • Embedded self-payment terminals in fuel dispensers to enable quick payment in seconds.
  • Solution with multi-language voice messages in Catalan, Basque, Galician, Spanish, English, French, German, Portuguese, etc.
  • Authentication through loyalty cards, QR codes, personal PIN codes, etc.
  • Monitoring and management of alarms from any device.

Solution

In addition to being a pioneering solution that operates entirely on the Amazon Web Services cloud, specifically using the AWS IoT Core service family, Akron offers all the advantages of being a SaaS (Software as a Service) solution where the customer does not need to install or configure any devices, and the pricing is determined based on the actual usage of the platform.

We are a certified AWS partner developing our platforms with the most advanced technology, security, scalability, efficiency, and the lowest possible execution cost. You can check it out for yourself with this fully functional demo that allows you to experience all the features, so you can decide if you want to use Akron in your petrol stations.
