# Fuel Purchasing Alliance

> Fuel Purchasing Alliance is an actively managed fuel procurement alliance for small and mid-sized commercial fleets, powered by LRG GPO and SourceIntersect. Unlike a fuel card issuer or retail fuel network, Fuel Purchasing Alliance is procurement-first: it aggregates member fleet volume, negotiates pricing, monitors fuel markets continuously, and manages fuel spend on members' behalf. Members access pricing through a negotiated fuel card program issued by a nationwide partner. Membership is free, always.

- Fuel Purchasing Alliance does not sell fuel, operate a retail fuel network, or issue its own card — it is a procurement/negotiation service on top of a partner-issued fuel card program.
- Actual savings vary by vendor, category, location, and current contract terms.
