Diesel should drop $0.50 +/- tomorrow based on the wholesale rack price. Hold off on buying diesel until Friday if you can wait to fuel up.

Based on today’s wholesale rack movement, we’re expecting a $0.50+ per gallon drop to hit retail starting Friday.

That kind of swing doesn’t happen often — and it’s the kind of move that puts real money back in your pocket.

If you’ve got enough in the tanks to make it through tonight, hold tight and buy on the dip tomorrow.

Stay safe out there and keep the wheels turning.

Value of Group Purchasing

Contract Savings – GPOs leverage the scale of all GPO members to drive pricing concessions from product and service providers in excess of what would normally be available to members.

Operational Savings (Opportunity Cost) – GPOs help member companies redirect scarce procurement and sourcing resources toward high-value initiatives.

Minimal Disruption – OpEx & CapEx savings while still buying things they buy today

Sourcing Process – GPOs provide a structured, sound process and often use buying committees consisting of subject matter experts from their member companies.

Best Practices / Innovation – GPOs serve as a natural funnel for operational best practices and operational improvement initiatives.

Customer Feedback / Contract Improvement – GPOs collect member feedback for the purposes of improving contracts, products, and services, and tailoring them to add value for our members and the industry.

Efficiency of Contracts – Once negotiated, GPO contracts are “plug-and-play” , significantly improving time to value versus a traditional sourcing process.
