Flanders, NJ – (Advanced Digital Data, Inc.) ADD Systems is pleased to announce A.E. Robinson Oil Company in Dover-Foxcroft, Maine is the first to fully deploy ADD eStore™ at all of its retail locations throughout Maine. A.E. Robinson Oil Company has been in business since 1950 and is a family- owned and operated company with three offices and retail locations in the state of Maine.

ADD eStore is a home office / store manager software solution for the convenience store industry. Its intuitive data centric solution offers marketers unprecedented visibility into their operations as well as a dynamic and easy-to-maintain Pricebook. The Atlas Reporting™ Business Intelligence platform, delivers detailed analysis and reporting is a must have for any business that requires efficient access to actionable information in order to make critical, timely decisions.

“Maintenance of virtually everything in eStore is so straightforward and easy,” said Scott Goodridge, IT Project Manager for A.E. Robinson. “It has a ton of possibilities and I think I’ve only seen the tip of the iceberg with this system’s capabilities. We are very anxious to get into the Atlas Reporting Business Intelligence piece so that we can get a better view of what’s actually going on in our c-stores. In the end we think that the “total package” of ADD eStore along with the Atlas Reporting software will really help us analyze, understand and grow our c-store business”.

ADD eStore is the culmination of a research and development effort that began in September of 2008. ADD Systems formed an advisory “Retail Partner” council to guide the design efforts for its new convenience store software package. The Retail Partner council consisted of a select group of customers and non-customers. It allowed ADD Systems to combine the expertise of its experienced staff with the real world expertise of its large and diverse client base.

Robert Culbertson, ADD Systems COO, explains the company’s bold R&D initiative: “We have 110 customers representing thousands of stores successfully running our existing application. The fast changing needs of this group and the industry at large challenged us to build a software product that is ahead of the curve, providing users with features that will allow for efficient operations, data simplicity, and process flexibility. ADD eStore is also fully integrated with our Wholesale application since we know that many marketers are diversified into both sectors. ADD Systems wanted to invest in the c-store market and express our commitment to the industry by delivering technology driven value to a broad spectrum of customers, from small independents to the largest marketers.”

A.E. Robinson’s Scott Goodridge went on to say that “the ADD Systems’ team has been great to work with… anytime I needed anything someone has been right there to help. And with this being a ground up project, it was important to be able to offer recommendations during the final development process. I was able to make several suggestions that I thought made the system better and more user friendly.”

One of the great assets of any organization is the knowledge of experienced employees.  Although roles change over time, a smart company retains the collected knowledge and experience and applies that asset to enhance its business.  Bruce Jewett spent 12 years in the petroleum industry before joining ADD Systems.  Jewett spent the next 22 years on the road, installing and teaching customers how to use the software to fit their needs.  The last 3 years Jewett had been a fixture at our Flanders, New Jersey office where he often directed his knowledge to the support team.  With his years of experience, Jewett was often able to cut quickly to the core of a support request.

Another aspect of Jewett’s work was consulting with our clients, drawing on his years of experience at ADD Systems.  “They want to know how they can operate more efficiently, how they improve drops, how they can improve receivables, “he said.  In addition to responding to clients, he also delivered seminars both at our company and in the field.  He has been a guest speaker at seminars for the “Maine Oil Dealers Association” and the “Pennsylvania Petroleum Marketers Association” to name a few.

Bruce Jewett is survived by his wife Peggy Jewett, several children and step children as well as several grandchildren.  ADD Systems along with the Jewett family, our clients and the petroleum industry celebrate Bruce Jewett’s life, lifelong contributions and accomplishments.  We thank him for allowing us to be a part of his life.  We will miss the multi-colored sport coats that were a fixture of Bruce’s at our annual Christmas parties.  No one else could have pulled it off, except Bruce.
