Optimization is all around: “Concrete Optimization”
In the chemicals industry, high costs – in terms of labor, materials, equipment, utilities, inventory, and logistics – translate into high risks. It is essential for chemical manufacturers to get their production mix and supply chains right, as one mistake can lead to skyrocketing operating costs and sub-optimal delivery performance – and this will take a hefty toll on the bottom line.
In addition to cost pressures, chemical companies also face intense competition, volatile demand, and tricky regulatory and compliance issues. To overcome these challenges and remain productive and profitable, chemical manufacturers require a robust and responsive planning and optimized decision making solution. Traditional, manual planning systems are simply not capable of coping with the complexities of modern-day chemical production and not flexible enough to handle rapid shifts in supply and demand and unexpected disruptions.
