- International Oil Trading Company
Complex trading operations within a large oil company.
- Custom Database tracks all Acquisition and Disposition contracts, shipments, delivery, and final terminal mixing instructions for a large international oil company. The database replaced a very extensive handheld mainframe operation and simultaneously automated many of the more mundane and time consuming office tasks (such as intense telex traffic via an automated Telex delivery module). Information became deliverable in real time as well as electronically to the off site accounting department; dockside ship arrivals worldwide became easier to target in order to cut demurrage charges dramatically; critical information became accessible to all members of the trading and operations group instantly; contract information became usable to all modules from initial buy/sell to final fulfillment (some contracts must be tracked for years); ease of use and short learning curve made the system accessible to team members previously dependent upon others for information delivery.
