LPG/Propane Downstream Distribution
Renewable energy is growing, but due to growing overall energy demand, the absolute demand for fossil fuels (especially oil and gas) will stay high – and therefore relevant. Furthermore, it is getting more important to have an efficient and cost-effective distribution process and a lean and integrated supply chain as economies around the world are moving away from using other fossil energy sources for residential, industrial, and transport use and start using natural gas as the cleanest fossil fuel.
To enable a cost-effective distribution process, we offer an integrated solution for Replenishment and Distribution with real-time feedback and yield & sourcing management, using state of the art mathematics and machine learning, including data-driven logistics and continuous optimization on different levels in the supply chain.
The challenges
- Improve customer experience while lowering costs
- Manage the complexity of an increased number of stations/customers, compartments, data flow
- Balance trade-offs between costs, drop sizes, and service levels
How we create value?
- By optimizing risks and savings for the stock replenishment at customers
- By using advanced, self-learning algorithms to compute optimal deliveries & routing plans
- By introducing supply chain visibility and process standardization
Benefits
- Improved end-to-end order-to-delivery process
- Improved supply chain visibility and efficiency
- Lower costs (per volume), lower CO2 emissions, larger average drop size, elimination of out-of-gas situations, and a reduction in long term distribution costs
