CC-98-139 INTEGRATED PLANNING AND SCHEDULING IN THE AGIPPETROLI SIPROD ARCHITECTURE

Description:

In today’s market scenario, plant managers are challenged by an ever growing list of demands and constraints: plant operations are required to improve performance while reducing costs, introducing new processes and new products, managing a shrinking and changing workforce. AP recognizes that oil companies’ survival is strictly related to identification of strategic advantages in key areas of the entire business cycle. Information Technology supporting the Company core business has been considered for a long time a significant differentiator by the Top Management of AgipPetroli and ENI. With this spirit, and to address these issues, the SIPROD project activities were started in 1993.
