Things are changing faster than ever for refineries, factories and processing plants – the pressure is on to remain competitive in the face of uncertainty and change – whether it is climate legislation, new technology, new market entrants, and a dynamic global trade environment. That means bringing costs down and improving efficiency to have a robust business that can survive in any economic environment, without sacrificing longer-term value for short-term gains.
Anyone can reduce costs. We do it in a way that carefully considers the short- and long-term trade-offs, to deliver savings that are sustainable. We use the tried and tested frameworks used by the leading management consultants, tailored to your facility, coupled with our decades of industry experience.
We understand that the big financial needle mover for a refinery, chemicals plant or manufacturing facility is the price you pay for feedstocks, and what you can get for your products in the market.
Through deep expertise on feedstock selection, logistics and marketing we have helped facilities unlock significant value.
A manufacturing facility needs to be reliable to be profitable, but overspending on maintenance is also a sure way to be uncompetitive. So, over the past few years our work has often pivoted to helping industrial facilities improve reliability and maintenance efficiency, while keeping costs under control.
We leverage our expertise in regulatory compliance and techno-economic analysis to enhance shareholder value. Our primary focus areas include biofuels co-processing, hydrogen utilization, and carbon capture, and storage (CCUS) technologies.
We have found that data visualization through Power BI is exceptionally powerful, and surprisingly underutilized in refineries and other manufacturing industries. We build custom Power BI dashboards for our clients, that visualize cost, workflow or other data that help identify actions needed to drive and sustain improvements.
Over the years we have helped facilities get back in the game and continue operating profitably and reliably, by working with our clients to find innovative solutions – whether at the C-Suite or on the factory floor.
