SCMart Features
Flow sheet Environment for Supply Chain Modeling
The SCMart PS product features a unique flow sheet style
modeling framework of your supply chain. Here, you may
select the tasks (processing units) from a palette that
include typical components in a process industry supply
chain, such as ships, storage tanks, reactors, mixers,
separators, flow switches and others. The connections
between the tasks represent the flow of materials in the
supply chain. By providing the processing parameters for
each task and associated costs information, a topological
view of the supply chain is developed.
Easy Generation of the mathematical models
Once the supply chain topology is developed, the
mathematical models for the planning and scheduling
optimization can be generated. Based on the desired
planning and scheduling horizons, cases for optimization
can be created.
Proven Technology for Large Scale Optimization
The optimization methods for large scale mixed integer
nonlinear optimization built in SCMart have been proven
in petrochemical complex implementations around the globe.
SCMart is also backed by an experienced consulting and
training services team that can ensure effective utilization
to generate superior results.
Rich and Customizable Visualization framework
Both the SCMart PS and SCMart PA products feature rich
capabilities for visualization of information associated
with the supply chain. This includes business and process
performance data, optimization case management and results
analysis. Furthermore, the visualization functions can be
tailored to the needs and responsibilities of each decision
maker in the workflow.
Wide Range of applicability
The SCMart PS system is applicable for supply chain
optimization of systems ranging from petrochemical and
refining complexes to fine chemicals. Model development
can be done on a component flow basis, which is typical
for bulk chemicals, or on a discrete recipe basis, which
is more typical for specialty products.
Ease of Maintenance and technology transfer
The flowsheet style modeling interface and the rich
visualization capabilities in SCMart make for a smooth
process when it comes to technology transfer and
maintenance. In the years following a SCMart
implementation, when business or operation conditions
change, the models can be easily modified, and thus our
customers can sustain the benefits of the supply chain
applications over time.
Seamless integration capabilities
The SCMart Suite products allow for easy transfer of data
to and from your corporate IT system. Furthermore, data
transfer at different hierarchies within SCMart, such as
from the Planning to the Scheduling process and vice
versa can be done smoothly. Solutions built with the
SCMart platform can be customized to meet the needs of
your business process and workflow.
