Nouria Energy has selected Gravitates artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Supply and Dispatch solution as the new fuel management system for its convenience stores.

It will bring a new suite of contract management, customer engagement, supply optimization, logistics automation, auto-dispatch and order generation to operations.

Nouria will be able to manage and value its supply contracts in real time, auto-generate orders for site replenishment, source orders based on the lowest laid-in cost and automatically allocate loads for in-house drivers and common carriers, saving dispatchers time and minimizing deadhead miles and the overall costs of trucks and drivers.

The company projects that it will complete the implementation of the technology by fall 2024.

“We have been exploring alternatives to our legacy system for a few years,” said Fouad El-Nemr, executive vice president at Nouria. “We didnt find anything that felt compelling until we came across Mike, Tom and the Gravitate team at Sigma. Their system is super-modern and has all the added optimization and automation components we need to fulfill our goals of supply optimization and logistics automation.”

Nouria is based in Worcester, Massachusetts, and has 183 stores.
