The problem in oil & gas distribution
Energy distributors and operators with long-lead spares, project-driven demand, and high-value surplus sitting idle in yards. You're overstocked in one branch and out of stock in another, book quantities don't match the shelf, and there's no single view across locations.
- Long-lead spares and project demand inflate inventory
- High-value surplus idle in yards, unvalued
