In 2009, this regional market had nearly 17,000 employees and sales exceeding $6 billion. We were hired to help with their security, PCI compliance, desktop management, personnel staffing, LANDesk support, and more.Wawa hired RennerBrown for a long-term consulting engagement focused on managing and securing their store and corporate infrastructure to ensure PCI compliance.
PCI Compliance stands for the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), and is a set of requirements designed to ensure that all companies process, store, and transmit credit card information in a secure environment. Any merchant that has a Merchant ID (MID) must comply with this requirement.

The LANDesk solutions that RennerBrown implemented allowed Wawa to become compliant with PCI DSS regulations, without sacrificing efficiency or risking any downtime in their stores or their corporate offices. Along with the correct process and technology, RennerBrown provided personnel on a temp to perm basis to assist WaWa with their planned resource needs based on growth.
