Know what the public record shows before the next delivery decision.

We are documenting how Texas petroleum carriers and independent jobbers monitor public delivery-certificate records, resolve changes, and retain source-grounded evidence while keeping their existing verification procedures in control.

Understanding the workflow

We are learning how the work is actually done.

We want to understand the operating moment, available identifiers, incumbent coverage, and whether public-record monitoring is consequential in day-to-day work.

Where does the check happen?

Onboarding, ordering, dispatch, or at the drop — and whether the order identifies the receiving tank.

Is the workflow already solved?

How teams use PDI, Titan, Red River, Petro Data, custom rules, or manual public-record checks today.

What would make monitoring useful?

Whether upcoming expirations, record changes, and retained evidence save time or prevent delivery disruption.

Two outputs, validated separately

Monitoring first. Delivery evidence in shadow mode.

Portfolio monitoring

A weekly review queue

Upcoming expirations, rollovers, disappearances, tank-status changes, and source ambiguities across a destination portfolio.

Validated through usefulness, exceptions found, and time saved.

Delivery evidence

A source-grounded record

The public row, source and retrieval timestamps, identifier match, resulting observation state, and any manual evidence.

Validated only alongside real workflows in shadow mode.

Supplemental information only.

This research does not approve, refuse, stop, or block deliveries. Public-record observations are not legal opinions, compliance guarantees, or claims of an affirmative defense. Existing verification and delivery procedures remain controlling.

For Texas carriers and independent jobbers

How does your team verify delivery-certificate records today?

We are looking for brief email responses from dispatch, transportation, safety, compliance, and fuel-distribution leaders. A short written answer is enough, and a call is available if that is easier. No confidential customer list is needed.
