CC-00-156 POTENTIAL IMPACT OF E-COMMERCE ON THE U.S. REFINING INDUSTRY

Description:

The focus of this paper is to share NATREF’s IRIS experience and lessons learnt with specific reference to elements such as the vertical integration via sound system architecture, the project approach including the methodologies followed on long-term focus, refinery involvement in project staffing and development and the impact thereof on change management and the system development rate. (Although not the focus, it will of course refer to NATREF’s selection of technology, but will put it as matter of fact without trying to influence other parties. In fact, the experience and lessons learnt are not technology specific.)
