ALEXANDRIA, Va.--The Petroleum Convenience Alliance for Technology Standards (PCATS) announced that Gilbarco Veeder-Root has achieved their point-of-sale (POS) provider Conformance Validation Certificate for the Passport system.
“Gilbarco has played a leadership role in the development of these standards for the retail fuel industry since the inception of standards activity within the National Association of Convenience Stores (NACS),” said John Hervey, executive director of PCATS. “Their dedication to open architecture technology and interface standards for the good of the industry is admirable and has been supported by a significant commitment of time, resources and expertise to the standards initiatives through the years.”
