Nomad Fuel Launches Next-Generation Platform to Revolutionize Fleet Management Across North America
Nomad Fuel, a rising force in Canada’s freight tech industry, announces the launch of its new fuel management product, a fully modernized and rebuilt platform redefining how trucking fleets buy, manage, and optimize their fuel spend. For decades, fuel management has lagged behind other innovations in the transportation industry. The way fleets purchase, track, and optimize fuel spend has remained clunky, outdated, and shrouded in mystery. The new platform is designed to change that - combining access to deep cross-border fuel discounts with advanced data-driven tools that provide fleets with the intelligence, transparency, and savings they need to stay competitive. “Fuel is the largest controllable expense for any fleet,” said Loren Shifrin, Founder and CEO of Nomad Fuel. “But until now, carriers have been stuck with outdated tools, obscure pricing models, and mediocre technology that serve fuel providers instead of fleets. Our new product flips that dynamic. We’re giving fleets clarity, control, and a smarter way to run their businesses.” Nomad Fuel introduces: Real-time visibility & smarter insights : An interactive dashboard, live price tracking down to the truck stop, transparent rack discounts, and a fuel map that simplifies decision-making. AI-powered fraud detection : Flagged transaction alerts, driver-level rejection monitoring, and customizable card controls designed to stop fraud before it happens. Driver empowerment : Tools for drivers to track spend, locate the cheapest fuel stops, and view amenities, plus automated invoicing for owner-operators. Seamless operations : A robust reporting suite with on-demand reports, tax automation, and easy integration into accounting systems - all backed by 24/7 support via call, text, or WhatsApp. “Transparency is everything,” said Jeremy Kelly, Chief Growth Officer. “Our clients know exactly where every dollar goes. That’s not just cost savings. It’s confidence. With our platform, fleets of any size can operate with the kind of intelligence previously reserved for large enterprises.” Nomad Fuel’s leadership team brings deep expertise in transportation, finance, and technology. Drawing on its founders’ experience in scaling and growing successful companies, along with a relentless focus on usability and trust, Nomad Fuel is set to modernize one of the transportation industry’s most critical cost centers. “The transportation sector's technology gap isn't just about outdated software. It's about architecture that can't scale with modern business needs. Nomad is the answer. Intelligent, transparent, and built for real-world fleet operations using AI and modern data science to deliver insights that actually matter,” said Jason Evans, Chief Technology Officer. “This is a paradigm shift in how fleets leverage technology to drive operational efficiency.” With Nomad Fuel’s new fleet fuel management platform, the results are clear: lower costs, fewer losses, happier drivers, and complete visibility. For fleets navigating thin margins and volatile fuel prices, it’s a competitive edge that makes growth possible.

Shield Machine "Shidai No.1" for Hangzhou Metro Successfully Launched
The "Shidai No.1" shield machine for the SG18-2 Section of Hangzhou Metro, constructed by China Railway Construction Bridge Engineering Bureau Group, was successfully launched from the left line of the interval between Shidai Avenue Station and Wenyan Station. This marks the official entry into the critical phase of shield-driven interval tunnel construction, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent breakthrough of the entire line. The left line of the interval between Shidai Avenue Station and Wenyan Station is approximately 1,928 meters long, close to the Qiantang River. It mainly passes through silty clay and silty clay (silty silt clay) strata, with partial passage through silty sand layers and abundant water content. The interval is laid along the Shidai Avenue Elevated Road, with a minimum distance of 4.6 meters from the elevated pile foundations and 3.04 meters from the large-diameter sewage pipes. Additionally, it passes under and alongside large-diameter rainwater pipes, high-rise building clusters, rivers and other structures, facing numerous risks and challenges. An earth pressure balance shield machine is adopted for the construction of this interval. To ensure construction safety and improve tunneling efficiency, the construction project team of China Railway Construction Bridge Engineering Bureau Group proactively collaborated with survey, design and other units in advance to conduct detailed geological and environmental surveys, and carried out multiple project discussions. A series of measures were implemented, including optimizing the cutterhead configuration, presetting tunneling parameters, equipping a muck weighing system, enhancing shield tail sealing and conducting radar-based dynamic ground scanning, so as to comprehensively improve the reliability of construction control. For high-risk sections, technologies such as "Keniso" filling (a special grouting/filling technology for shield tunneling) and long-pipe grouting inside the tunnel were adopted to fully ensure the safe and smooth progress of the project. The shield launching site is adjacent to the main urban road, making the hoisting operation complex. The project team reasonably decomposed the hoisting processes, proactively avoided construction during morning and evening peak hours, and arranged dedicated personnel for 24-hour on-site duty to strictly control safety and quality. Finally, the assembly of the shield machine under the well was completed as scheduled, minimizing the impact on citizens' travel. Hangzhou Metro Line 18 is an important north-south express line in Hangzhou's rail transit network. After completion, it will strengthen the connection between Xiaoshan Sub-center and the main urban area, fill the gap of metro service in areas such as Wenyan and Yiqiao, and play a significant role in driving local economic development and facilitating residents' travel.

Right Deck of Yisai Yellow River Grand Bridge on Daqing Highway Successfully Closed
The mid-span of the right deck of the Yisai Yellow River Grand Bridge – a key control project of the Daqing Highway project constructed by China Railway Construction Bridge Engineering Bureau Group – was successfully closed. This marks a major breakthrough in the construction of the bridge's main structure and lays a solid foundation for the full-line opening of Daqing Highway to traffic. As the "throat project" of Daqing Highway, the Yisai Yellow River Grand Bridge spans the main stream of the Yellow River, with a total length of 468 meters. The main bridge adopts a (90+160+90)-meter prestressed concrete continuous box girder design with variable cross-sections. Among them, the mid-span closure is the most difficult and technically demanding key link in the entire bridge construction, facing multiple challenges such as complex hydrogeological conditions in the Yellow River Basin, high risks of high-altitude operations, and strict requirements for precision control. To ensure the smooth progress of the construction, the project team made advance plans, conducted scientific deployment, and formulated a detailed construction plan. During the construction preparation phase, technical personnel used BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology for modeling and simulation, finite element analysis, and other methods to accurately calculate key indicators such as temperature deformation, stress distribution, and alignment control during the closure segment construction. They strictly followed the principles of "precision monitoring, symmetric pouring, and dynamic adjustment", used a bridge monitoring system to track the beam deformation data in real time, and applied intelligent temperature control technology to control the concrete pouring temperature, so as to avoid beam cracking caused by temperature stress. Meanwhile, in response to potential risks such as Yellow River water level fluctuations and strong winds, the project team established an emergency rescue team, reserved emergency materials in advance, and remained on standby 24 hours a day to ensure that both construction safety and quality meet the standards. Daqing Highway is an important connecting line in Qinghai Province's planned "Three Vertical, Four Horizontal, and Ten Connecting Lines" and "Six Vertical, Nine Horizontal, and Twenty Connecting Lines" trunk highway networks, and connects with the already completed and opened Chuanda Expressway. After completion, it will further enhance the radiating and driving functions of national expressways such as the Beijing-Tibet Expressway, and is of great significance for deepening and improving the planning of Qinghai Province's expressway network and realizing the connection between national key highways and local main highways.

PIVOT Announced by Baur and Macaluso Launch Revolutionary Kiosk Based Car Buying Experience
PIVOT Revolutionizes Car Buying with Kiosk-Based Self-Directed Experience Veteran automotive industry leaders Buddy Baur and Sean Macaluso have unveiled PIVOT, a revolutionary kiosk-based system that completely reimagines the car-buying process. With nearly 50 years of combined experience, Baur and Macaluso have designed PIVOT to offer a seamless, independent, and transparent transaction experience for car buyers. Using an interactive in-dealership kiosk, PIVOT empowers consumers to complete their entire car-buying journey on their own terms, from browsing inventory to financing, eliminating the traditional pressures of sales encounters "We saw an opportunity to disrupt the traditional car-buying process, especially in light of how consumer behavior shifted during the COVID-19 pandemic," says Buddy Baur, co-founder of PIVOT. "The automotive retail model was ripe for innovation, and we wanted to create a solution that not only meets the needs of today's buyers but also streamlines dealership operations." The PIVOT system offers customers an entirely self-directed journey, enabling them to browse vehicles, configure their preferences, explore trade-in values, request test drives, and even secure financing, all through an easy-to-use kiosk interface. This independent experience fosters transparency, reduces wait times, and provides buyers with the control they’ve long desired in their car-purchasing process. The Genesis of PIVOT: Born Out of Necessity For Baur and Macaluso, the idea of PIVOT emerged from their extensive experience within the automotive industry and the ongoing challenges presented by traditional car sales models. The pandemic forced a shift in consumer expectations, with many buyers seeking a more hands-free, independent experience. "We knew the existing process wasn’t working for everyone," reflects Macaluso. "Customers were frustrated by long waits, high-pressure sales tactics, and an overall lack of transparency. When the pandemic hit, we saw an opportunity to change the game—creating a self-directed, independent system that enhances both the customer experience and dealership efficiency." The resulting PIVOT system was designed to be a comprehensive solution to these common issues, empowering customers while also providing dealerships with valuable insights into the buying process. How PIVOT Works: A Seamless, Customer-Driven Journey PIVOT redefines the car-buying experience with an easy-to-use kiosk that guides customers through every stage of their transaction: Browse and Select : Customers use the kiosk to access the dealership’s full inventory, viewing detailed vehicle specifications, high-resolution images, and transparent pricing. Personalized Configuration : After selecting a vehicle, customers can customize options, accessories, and trim levels, with live updates on pricing and availability. Trade-In Valuation : The kiosk provides an instant trade-in valuation based on real-time market data, making the process faster and more transparent. Test Drive Request : When customers are ready for a test drive, they simply request it through the kiosk. A designated "Lot Attendant" is notified and brings the selected vehicle directly to the customer, saving valuable time. Financing & Purchase : PIVOT integrates an AI-powered "Financing Manager" that walks customers through personalized financing options, explains terms, and facilitates secure submissions, all through the kiosk. Real-Time Dealership Alerts : Throughout the process, dealership management is kept informed, receiving alerts when customers complete steps such as financing, providing real-time oversight and the ability to intervene as needed. FASTPASS: Bridging the Gap Between Online and In-Dealership Experiences A standout feature of PIVOT is its FASTPASS system, which allows customers to initiate their car-buying journey online and then transition seamlessly to the kiosk in the dealership. This feature caters to modern customers' preferences for starting their purchase process from the comfort of their home. Online Initiation : Customers can browse inventory, enter trade-in information, and explore financing options from home. Save Progress : Once the customer has completed the initial steps, a unique FASTPASS code is generated to save all their selections and preferences. Seamless Transition : Upon arriving at the dealership, customers input their FASTPASS code into any PIVOT kiosk to resume their process where they left off, without the need to re-enter data. Accelerated Completion : FASTPASS allows for a faster completion of the transaction, including test drives, financing, and purchase, saving time and enhancing convenience. Operational Efficiency and Data-Driven Insights for Dealerships While PIVOT significantly improves the customer experience, it also offers substantial benefits for dealerships: Increased Customer Traffic : The self-directed, no-pressure buying experience attracts customers who might have previously avoided traditional dealership settings. Optimized Use of Staff : PIVOT reduces the need for extensive staff involvement in routine tasks. Sales teams can focus on high-value activities, while Lot Attendants and Finance Managers handle specific tasks, improving overall operational efficiency. Rich Data Insights : PIVOT captures detailed data on customer preferences, behavior, and transaction patterns, providing valuable insights to dealership managers. This information can help inform better sales strategies and decision-making. Higher Gross Profit : The virtual AI Financing Manager improves financing penetration and accuracy, maximizing profit per deal and streamlining the finance process. Faster Staff Onboarding : The intuitive kiosk system reduces training time for staff, enabling dealerships to quickly onboard new employees and maintain consistent service quality. Transparency : PIVOT’s self-service model builds trust by providing customers with all necessary information at their fingertips, empowering them to make informed decisions. PIVOT: The Future of Automotive Retail PIVOT represents a complete reimagining of the car-buying experience, moving it firmly into the 21st century. With its innovative approach to self-directed purchasing and its seamless integration of online and in-store experiences, PIVOT is set to redefine the automotive retail landscape. “As a company, we’re committed to providing an experience that puts the customer first,” says Baur. “We believe PIVOT will lead the way in reshaping the automotive sales experience by focusing on empowerment, transparency, and efficiency.” With early success in several forward-thinking dealerships, PIVOT is poised to become the future standard in car buying, offering a customer-centric, data-driven, and efficient solution for both buyers and dealerships. About PIVOT PIVOT is an innovative kiosk-based car buying system created by automotive industry veterans Buddy Baur and Sean Macaluso. The system offers a fully self-directed, transparent, and efficient car-buying experience, empowering customers to complete the entire transaction independently while providing dealerships with valuable data and insights. PIVOT’s mission is to revolutionize automotive retail by improving the customer experience and optimizing dealership operations.
