Kinaxis 和埃克森美孚聯手開發尖端供應鏈技術解決方案,旨在改變能源行業。該交易旨在解決能源行業面臨的獨特供應鏈挑戰并創建更高效的流程。
全球最大的能源公司之一埃克森美孚和供應鏈協調領域的領導者 Kinaxis 正在研究優化供需規劃的解決方案。此次合作旨在實現數據可視性自動化、改善庫存管理并降低復雜燃料、化學品和潤滑油市場的供應成本。
兩家公司將專注于改進燃料商品的規劃,該規劃目前缺乏標準化方法,并且嚴重依賴電子表格等手動方法。通過將煉油廠到客戶的規劃與實時數據相集成,該解決方案有望實現更準確的供需平衡。
“去年,我們將所有埃克森美孚供應鏈活動和專業知識整合到一個集中組織中,創建了世界上最大的供應鏈運營機構之一,并通過發現的關鍵解決方案差距,使我們的業務能夠獲得額外價值,”斯塔爾說Gjervik,埃克森美孚全球服務公司供應鏈總裁。 “與領先的供應鏈技術提供商 Kinaxis 合作,有助于為像我們這樣的大型復雜企業提供解決方案。”
該交易還包括為埃克森美孚的化學品和潤滑油部門開發先進的規劃工具。這些工具將處理制造和物流約束以及場景建模,從而降低供應鏈成本并提高效率。
Kinaxis 首席執行官 John Sicard 指出了當今能源供應鏈中敏捷性和效率的重要性,他表示:“從開采到最終用戶消費的每一步都迫切需要提高效率,我們期待著對整個行業產生巨大影響。”
這一合作伙伴關系匯集了埃克森美孚豐富的行業專業知識和 Kinaxis 的供應鏈創新,為能源行業提供了急需的運營現代化。
Kinaxis and ExxonMobil partner to transform energy supply chains
Kinaxis and ExxonMobil have joined forces to develop cutting-edge supply chain technology solutions aimed at transforming the energy sector. The deal seeks to address the unique supply chain challenges faced by the energy industry and create more efficient processes.
ExxonMobil, one of the world’s largest energy companies, and Kinaxis, a leader in supply chain orchestration, are working on solutions to optimise supply and demand planning. The collaboration aims to automate data visibility, improve inventory management, and reduce supply costs across complex fuel, chemical, and lubricant markets.
The companies will focus on improving planning in fuel commodities, which currently lack a standardised approach and rely heavily on manual methods like spreadsheets. By integrating refinery-to-customer planning with real-time data, the solution promises more accurate balancing of supply and demand.
“Last year, we brought together all ExxonMobil supply chain activities and expertise into one centralised organisation, creating one of the largest supply chain operations in the world, and through this identified critical solution gaps to enable our businesses to capture additional value,” said Staale Gjervik, supply chain president, ExxonMobil Global Services Company. “Collaborating with Kinaxis, a leading supply chain technology provider, is instrumental in providing solutions for a large and complex business like ours.”
The deal also includes the development of advanced planning tools for ExxonMobil’s chemicals and lubricants divisions. These tools will handle manufacturing and logistics constraints, as well as scenario modelling, which could lower supply chain costs and improve efficiency.
John Sicard, CEO of Kinaxis, noted the importance of agility and efficiency in today’s energy supply chains, stating: “There is an urgent need to increase efficiency in every step, from extraction to end-user consumption, and we’re looking forward to making a big impact across the sector.”
This partnership brings together ExxonMobil’s vast industry expertise and Kinaxis’ supply chain innovation, offering the energy sector much-needed modernisation in its operations.
