Common oil, gas, mining & utilities
challenges by role
- “We are producing a higher mix of specialty products like waxes, lubricants, and chemical feedstocks, products that generally have higher margins but adding complexity to our selling portfolio.”
- “We have limited visibility to NPI, Marketing, & Price Changes – Extremely manual processes.”
- “We have limited CRM Opportunity pipeline visibility – Not systematized.”
- “Many people are second guessing forecasts - Limited visibility and collaboration around assumptions.”
- “Ensuring supply of crude oil and spare parts to maximize uptime is a constant challenge.”
- “Our leading demand drivers & indicators are not being monitored systematically - Creates surprises.”
- “Our refineries must run continuously. Assuring an adequate supply of the right type of crude oil is crucial.”
- “We have Limited Visibility and Collaboration with our suppliers around constraints and disruptions.”
- “Our batch planning systems are not providing real-time answers to demand and supply change what-ifs.”
- “Controlling logistics costs is a priority. Volatile costs and disruptions at ports threaten efficient operations and profitability.”
- “Our average refinery cost of crude oil is volatile: prices can change 50% within a year.”
- “Our AOP /finance process is disconnected from the rolling forecasts of our S&OP process.”
- “People Productivity – Most work is offline, with low adoption of systems of engagement.”
