Please be aware 1st Source Program Manager Lee Ann Spinetto recorded a webinar last week introducing important aspects of the 2022 requirements. The link to the recording, as well as to the new 2022 1st Source Brochure, both below, also went to our 1st Source Marketers. Make sure you are familiar with them.

In addition, we’ve also sent the following letter to U.S Marketers via LubeLink. Be prepared to discuss the updated 2021 metric numbers with U.S. 1st Source Marketers to ensure they are on track to achieve their 1st Source goals.
Dear Valued 1st Source Marketer,
As you are aware, supply chain challenges and demand continue to create hurdles in our industry, as well as in many others. At Chevron we are constantly monitoring these challenges and recognize the impact they can have on your business. With that in mind, we have once again reviewed the requirements for the 2021 1st Source Program and are announcing additional changes to the set goals.
Due to the impacts of Delo® XLE/SDE shortages for the remainder of the year, additional adjustments to the 2021 goals are as follows:
- LM Paper & Premium Products – November and December will not be included in the end-of-year (EOY) calculations. October YTD performance compared to October YTD Targets will be used to calculate year-end performance outcomes. Any Marketer who falls within 95-99.9% will be given an automatic exception and paid out at 100% for this metric.
- Delo® 600 ADF purchase goal will be reduced to 6k gals for 2021
- Delo 600 ADF – November and December will not be included in the EOY calculations. October YTD performance compared to October YTD Targets will be used to calculate year-end performance outcomes. Any Marketer who reached 3k gallons of Delo 600 ADF by the end of October will be given an automatic exception and paid out at 100% for this metric. This is an additional decrease to the adjustment made in September 2021, which would have set the October total at 5k gallons.
- All other volume and activity goals remain the same through the end of the year.
In making these further adjustments, we hope to eliminate some of the stress which the end of the year can create and demonstrate the value we put on our continued partnership. We will be updating the goals in the tracking dashboard to reflect these changes by early December.
Thanks for all your hard work and patience as we are drawing this challenging year to a close, but mostly thank you for your partnership and your business!
Happy Holidays!
Best Regards,
Lee Ann Spinetto
1st Source Program Manager
