PC*MILER | FuelTax 16 Fully Automates Fuel and Mileage Tax Tracking,
Calculation and Reporting
Comprehensive Software Solution Simplifies the Entire Fuel Tax Process, Saving Time and Money

PRINCETON, NJ - November 11, 2010 - ALK Technologies, Inc. has announced the release of PC*MILER|FuelTax 16, a comprehensive system that automates fuel and mileage tax tracking, calculation and reporting. Available for motor carriers and private fleets, the latest version of the sixteenth annual software solution simplifies the entire fuel tax process saving time and money.

The application generates easy to use forms and tax rates for all United States and Canadian jurisdictions and instantly calculates fuel and mileage taxes, refunds and credits. The application also provides state mileage summaries, fleet performance reports and quarterly updates for compliance with the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) and the International Registration Plan (IRP) provisions.

“PC*MILER|FuelTax eliminates the time consuming task of tracking routes, calculating distances, and recording fuel purchases for each trip,” said Bill Maddox, Director of Sales, PC*MILER Solutions for ALK Technologies. “We are pleased to offer a solution that simplifies the overall fuel tax process, ensures accurate reporting, and significantly enhances productivity.”

“PC*MILER|FuelTax has reduced our fuel taxes by 25% and saves me numerous  hours of work monthly when calculating IFTA fuel taxes for our fleet of 5 trucks,” said Lorraine Minieri, Transportation Manager of Minieri, Inc., a truckload motor carrier based in Freehold, NJ. “PC*MILER has been a valuable dispatch tool that has saved us tax dollars and operating costs by routing our drivers more efficiently. Together these two products paid for themselves within the first year of usage.” 

PC*MILER|FuelTax provides extensive reporting capabilities summarizing critical data stored in the program. To help customers with their tax returns, the Fuel Conflicts Report identifies possible data entry mistakes along with gaps or overlaps in odometer readings. 

The application can import data from mobile communications and transportation management systems.  It seamlessly integrates with PC*MILER, PC*MILER|Streets, and now PC*MILER|Tolls to automatically calculate distances, trip times, and toll costs. PC*MILER|FuelTax can also be used as a stand-alone product. For more information, visit www.pcmiler.com/fueltax.asp.
