Ward designs and manufactures automated fuel management systems for public and commercial fleets, and has done so from San Antonio, Texas since 1974.
Eddie J. Ward built the first automated fuel management system at the request of the City of San Antonio, and the company has been refining it ever since.
Every Ward system is built for the field, from sub-zero municipal yards to coastal fueling sites, controlling access from the storage tank to the vehicle and recording every transaction automatically.
Hardware is designed and manufactured in San Antonio, Texas, and SimplyFuel software is hosted by Ward, so one team is accountable for the whole system.
