Chevron, the second-largest U.S.-based energy company, has chosen RedPrairie's BlueCube Enterprise for its North American company-owned, company-operated stores and franchise convenience stores.

"We are thrilled to have Chevron, one of the top five global oil companies, as one of our premier customers in the petroleum/c-store marketplace," says RedPrairie leader Kevin Saum. "By utilizing BlueCube Enterprise, Chevron expects to have a common platform which will help them achieve better operational excellence."

RedPrairie says the BlueCube Enterprise Solution for petroleum and convenience stores impacts virtually all of the site-based operations-related environments, from daily budgeting and forecasts of inventory and employees to production planning, fresh-item control, recipe management, and employee scheduling and time and attendance.

In an unrelated development, Publix Supermarkets Inc. will implement RedPrairie's Workforce Optimization suite at approximately 900 locations. Suite features include time and attendance, business forecasting, labor demand planning, automated optimized scheduling, associate self-service, dashboards with configurable alerts and computer-based training.
