An aircraft ground refueling management system of the present disclosure utilizes various components already existing in an aircraft ground refueling vehicle to characterize and track, in real time, events of an aircraft refueling operation. The components include a fuel meter, a fuel delivery deadman sensor, a fuel nozzle sensor and a ground refueling vehicle brake sensor. Data from these components in combination with data provided by a mobile computing device that is integral to the refueling operation provide the data points to determine the amount of time elapsed for each event of the refueling operation. Knowledge of each event of the refueling operation provides the opportunity for identifying where time spent can be reduced.
