    Fuel Pricing Management Solution Saves Time and Errors

    Colorado Springs, Colo., January 17, 2012 — PriceAdvantage, a division of Skyline Products, announced today that BJ’s Wholesale Club has chosen PriceAdvantage to support fuel pricing for its 107 BJ’s Gas sites. All sites have completed the implementation of PriceAdvantage and initial results show that the solution saves BJ’s roughly 3-4 hours per day in time management as well as costly pricing errors.

    “We are thrilled to be using PriceAdvantage as it has truly taken us from a manual system to an automated process with full control from headquarters”, says Scott Margherio, Vice President, Manager of Fuel & Automotive Operations of BJ’s Wholesale Club. “We used to spend a good part of the morning collecting surveys, inputting data into a spreadsheet and then submitting prices to the clubs. Now we are able to make price changes in under an hour, instantly receiving a confirmation that it has been completed, correctly.”

    Aaron McHugh, Head of PriceAdvantage division, adds “In today’s competitive market, it is essential to have the right processes in place in order for a retailer to successfully manage fuel pricing with ever changing market conditions.
