Vehicle Tuning Company CEO Wins Prestigious Environment Award

Vehicle tuning company CEO wins prestigious environment award

Paul Busby of Viezu Technologies has been named as the Chief Executive Officer of the Year at The 2013 People and Environment Achievement Business Awards in London.
The joint founder of one of the world’s leading vehicle tuning companies collected the prestigious award which recognised his individual endeavours in helping reduce fuel consumption and emissions.

“It’s a great honour and privilege to be named as CEO of the Year, especially so as these awards concentrate on how green initiatives can be good for business as well as the planet, which Viezu has been working hard to achieve with its market-leading BlueOptimize™ vehicle tuning products,” commented Paul.
In winning the CEO of the Year accolade, judges were looking for a visionary leader who most clearly demonstrated an outstanding commitment to sustainability in their market, along with personal contribution to the organisation’s growth built on green credentials.

Indeed, the number of Viezu approved dealers currently stands at some 400 in over 42 different countries including the UK. The business is also now involved with many utilities companies, offering its BlueOptimize™ tuning services to some of the largest vehicle fleets in Europe. http://www.viezu.com/economy-tuning

No surprise really, when you consider that BlueOptimize™ can help reduce emissions by up to 20 per cent and also offers up to 20 per cent savings on the cost of fuel.
Paul added: “More and more private vehicle owners and fleet operators are benefitting from Viezu’s award-winning products with lower fuel consumption, while also doing their bit to help the environment with lower emissions. It really is a win-win situation for all concerned and is putting Viezu on the road to success around the world.”
BlueOptimize™ has particularly been designed to assist fleet operators and private vehicle owners with older vehicles and with older technology in order to reduce emissions and use fuel more efficiently, whether it is petrol or diesel.

Even on newer modern vehicles which have a host of new technology to help them be as “green” as possible, BlueOptimize™ can still deliver significant savings on fuel usage by reducing the speed and taking away a percentage of power at points in the rev range where the driver does not require it, resulting in less fuel burnt and fewer emissions.
BlueOptimize™ also offers huge advantages to those involved in logistics and other supply chains.

That’s because as the transport industry moves to having zero vehicle emissions, BlueOptimize™ is an amazing transitional conduit toward electric vehicles (or other zero emission producing technology like hydrogen power solutions which is in experimental stage at this time).
“Who said “petrol-heads” cannot be environmentally conscientious!,” said Paul.

However, Viezu is no stranger to collecting accolades due to the achievements of BlueOptimize™, having previously been awarded the UK Chamber of Commerce “Innovation in Technology” for 2011. http://www.viezu.com/viezu-awards

More recently it also received the Fleet News Cost Saving Initiative of the Year for 2013 for its BlueOptimize™ fuel economy tuning for large fleet vehicle operators.

FleetNews Awards 2013 – Cost Saving Initiative – Fleet Fuel Saving Remapping

Sunday, March 24th, 2013 by Viezu

Award Winning Fuel saving services – BlueOptimize Fuel Economy Tuning.

Viezu are delighted to announce that our Fleet Fuel Economy tuning service BlueOptimize has won the FleetNews Cost saving initiative of the year 2013. During 2012 Viezu tuned the BT Fleet of 24,000 vans, the joint “Fuel Save” project was a combination of Viezu’s award winning fuel economy tuning, and BT’s network of 65 maintenance depots.
The FleetNews award is one of the largest and most respected motor industry awards on the annual calendar. The night really looked like a who’s who of the Fleet industry; the evening was also real show of strength as over 1500 guests and Fleet industry professionals gathered for one of the biggest networking evenings of the year, complete with celebrity guests and entertainment.

The focus and highlight of the evening was the announcement of the Fleet News Awards, and for the first time Viezu and our Fleet fuel tuning services were entered for an award, Fleet News Cost Saving Initiative 2013, an award which BT Fleet were delighted to be presented on the night for the installation of Viezu’s fuel saving tuning and remapping, a tuning project that is saving BT Fleet over £4m per year on fuel.

FleetNews Judges’ Comments on Viezu’s tuning of the BT Fleet
BT Fleet’s cost saving initiative is head shoulders above its competition. The saving are of a mind blowing scale and its research provides the proof and reassurance for other fleets that engine remapping works and is safe. One fact stands out: the annual CO2 savings equate to removing 1,300 taxis from the road. An outstanding and long-term sustainable success.

Paul Busby CEO of Viezu commentated “The fuel economy tuning and fuel saving remapping services offered by Viezu have already won a number of prestigious awards, but to receive the FleetNews Award in combination with our largest Fleet customer and partner and their Fuel Saving programme is really very special to us”.
Viezu’s BlueOptimize fuel saving tuning and fleet tuning services are not like others in the industry, the tuning is custom developed in house to dramatically improve fuel economy, the remap tuning is specially designed to include elements of rev limiting, speed limiting, throttle and load control, this is quite unlike the approach others use and is guaranteed to deliver fuel saving results. Viezu fuel saving tuning is also the only tuning and remapping of its kind to be ISO certified and insured.

Combat fuel duty rise with Blue Optimize – Fuel Economy Tuning

Combat fuel duty rise with Blue Optimize – Fuel Economy Tuning and Remapping

BT is just one company that is beating rising fuel prices by remapping its fleet of 24,000 vehicles

Fleet operators, businesses and private motorists worried about the prospect of even higher fuel bills in the New Year following the impending 3p fuel duty rise, can combat any hike in prices with Blue Optimize, a revolutionary engine remap service from Viezu.

Offering up to 20 per cent improvements in fuel economy, the award-winning ECU remapping service has been developed to rigorous ISO 9001 standards and can potentially save companies and fleet operators thousands of pounds in fuel bills.

“We’re already seeing drivers cut their mileage because of stubbornly high fuel prices. On top of that, millions of motorists, businesses and fleet operators now face a bleak New Year with the 3p per litre fuel duty rise.

“However, thanks to Blue Optimize there is a way of reducing running costs without changing driving habits or travelling less.

“Indeed, our revolutionary tuning service offers many benefits to motorists. Apart from delivering better fuel economy, Blue Optimize enables reduced CO2 emissions, smoother more progressive power delivery and torque improvements,” said Paul Busby, CEO, Viezu Technologies.

Nearly all production cars, 4×4’s and vans can benefit from Viezu’s economy tuning, the result of hundreds of hours research and development at the company’s global technical centre.

Among the leaders in its field, Viezu also provides bespoke vehicle tuning and ECU remapping services to some of the UK’s largest fleets. For example, the company is currently working with BT Fleet to deliver a series of major environmental, performance and financial improvements which, it is anticipated, will help BT save over £3 million.

The programme will see more than 20,000 of BT’s light commercial vehicles remapped using Viezu’s proprietary technology, to deliver better fuel consumption and reduced CO2 emissions, while also improving vehicle driveability.

“While drivers can’t directly influence the price they pay at the pump, Blue Optimize proves that there are significant steps that can be taken to fight back against the fuel duty rise in an attempt to return to more affordable motoring,” added Busby.

Global first for aftermarket tuner: Viezu ISO Certification

Wednesday, May 9th, 2012 by Viezu

Global first for aftermarket tuner: Viezu ISO Certification

Viezu Technologies, one of the world’s leading and fastest growing aftermarket vehicle  tuning and ECU remapping company’s, has achieved a global industry first by becoming fully ISO 9001 certified

The news comes hot on the heels of an official audit which confirmed that Viezu met all the stringent quality criteria to be bestowed the prestigious internationally recognised standard.

Paul Busby, CEO, Viezu, said: “To be the first car engine tuning company in the world to achieve ISO 9001 is great news for Viezu and our customers. It clearly demonstrates our on-going commitment to producing high-quality, market leading products backed up by a first class after sales support.

“Of course, customers of Viezu approved dealers already had the confidence of knowing that all of our products are fully insured, with a money back guarantee, but this independent accolade gives an extra reassurance and is proof of the highest standards we maintain.”

Although nearly all the strict processes were already in place before embarking on ISO certification almost four years ago, Viezu has also substantially invested in new equipment and staff training to ensure it reached the stringent management processes required.

The news also means that Viezu approved dealers can say that the processes and development use to produce the electronic files, (ECU Remapping files) they use are ISO compliant, a strong reassurance to customers who previously may have been reluctant to have had their car retuned.

To achieve ISO 9001 status Viezu demonstrated to The British Standards Institution (BSI) that they had rigid quality management systems in place, including their Technical Training Academy, www.remap101.com  (Viezu’s in house car tuning training and car tuning software training centre), thorough staff training, processes for new product development and implementation, and even how they interface with customers.

Paul added: “Although ISO certification benefits our business, we also have the aim of lifting the industry standard and hope other car tuning companies follow suit.

“This award is also particularly important for our Special Projects Team, who already work with a number of car manufacturers, and after market tuning providers helping them to meet increasingly stringent emissions legislation without any sacrifice to performance. This gives a further ‘stamp of approval’ and makes our services and products even more attractive to other vehicle manufacturers.”

Only recently Viezu doubled the size of its technical team and appointed a general manager as a result of the unprecedented demand for its services.

The company has now developed more than 15,000 individual ECU programmes. In some instances Viezu’s products give drivers a massive 15% improvement in fuel economy and 40% reduction in vehicle emissions. www.viezu.com
