KSS, a global leader in retail and wholesale pricing automation and optimization solutions, announced recently that it has joined SAP Industry Value Network (IVN) for oil and gas as an Independent Software Vendor member. This follows the recent certification of its KSS RackPrice wholesale fuels pricing application on the SAP NetWeaver platform.
The SAP Industry Value Network for oil and gas brings together a select group of key independent software vendors, systems integrators and technology vendors with SAP and executives from 17 oil and gas companies representing major integrated, large national and mid-sized company that are thought leaders, such as Conoco Phillips, Holly, Petrobras, Shell, Statoil, Tesoro and Valero. The IVN will address the most pressing industry business challenges by accelerating the solution innovations the industry needs and leveraging investments in SAP and partner solutions to optimize asset utilization and lower IT investment risk.
Through its PriceNet retail fuels and RackPrice wholesale fuels pricing applications, KSS will work with other members of the IVN to provide fully integrated solutions for price optimization and margin management for the downstream hydrocarbon supply chain. By delivering pre-integrated, standard, end-to-end solutions and services based on the SAP NetWeaver platform, customers can avoid costly integration projects.
