KSS and FuelQuest partner to optimize end-to-end retail fuels management processes

Florham Park, NJ – (Apr 5, 2005) – KSS Inc., the leading provider of fuels and merchandise pricing solutions and FuelQuest Inc., the leading provider of fuels supply chain management solutions, are pleased to announce a partnership to help petroleum/convenience retailers optimize their business operations across the fuels pricing and supply chain based on a unique understanding of customer demand.

FuelQuest is the provider of FMS, the leading industry solution for fuel demand and supply chain management. KSS is the provider of PriceNet, the leading industry solution for retail fuels pricing and price decision support.

FuelQuest and KSS will co-market a certified interface between the FMS and PriceNet systems that will allow users of both solutions to drive incremental value by creating linkage between fuel supply schedules and sales forecasts that take account of short term pricing strategies and positions. This will establish a fully integrated solution that will provide improved visibility of the short term supply position to the pricing function and will provide visibility of sales forecasts adjusted for short term pricing tactics. The interface, available from April 4th, will allow better coordination between supply and pricing.

Rich Cilento, CEO of FuelQuest stated, "We are very pleased to be able to offer our clients an integrated FuelQuest-KSS solution. This interface allows them to optimize fuel replenishment forecasting and dispatch planning results with the most current street price strategy, linking the fuel supply chain with retail fuels pricing. Our respective solutions are already well proven and we are excited about promoting this value-adding component in the North American and European marketplaces."

"Although both our solutions stand alone with strong value propositions by themselves, it makes great sense to facilitate the integration of the two solutions to help customers’ drive even greater value from their investments. We can see increased value on both the pricing and supply chain side for customers willing to explore this link,” commented Iain Cockburn, CEO of KSS.
