"SMS offers the most complete tool set available for convenience and fuel retailers. Our single core design supports in-store, at-the-pump, and all operational activities in between. One system manages point-of-sale, inventory, pricing, and reporting, and it can even centralize all such activities in multi-store environments."

THE SUITE
Store Management Suite (SMS) is a client-based software solution that provides regional and national retailers with seamless, integrated management of the back office, corporate office, warehouse and all aspects of the retail enterprise.  The suite contains modules that are typically outsourced, and ensures all necessary data is shared when, how, and with whom needs it.  Instant connectivity, anywhere in the enterprise, on any connected device, is reality.
 
THE OFFER
SMS offers the most complete tool set available for convenience and fuel retailers. Our single core design supports in-store, at-the-pump, and all operational activities in between.  One system manages point-of-sale, inventory, pricing, and reporting, and it can even centralize all such activities in multi-store environments.
All pumps can be controlled from any designated POS station.  Authorizing those pumps is as easy as a simple touch of a button on the fully customizable user interface.  That same interface also reflects pump status and real-time volume counters, plus allows pre-pay options to be configured into a single button, making the system easier to learn and more efficient during peak hours.
Best of all, SMS seamlessly integrates outside fuel with inside merchandise, whether it is one location or a chain.  Financial reporting is integrated, providing a clearer picture of results, and price book, merchandising, and inventory systems are linked too.  Not to mention, the complete loyalty system flows from inside to out, allowing cross marketing like never before.  It’s simple, effective, yet more advanced than even the largest of chains.
