Our client is a prominent player in the global refinery sector, with an annual production capacity of 10 million tonnes. They specialize in manufacturing Benzene, Toluene, White Spirit, Polyisobutene, and Sulphur, serving markets worldwide with critical petroleum and chemical products.

Business Scenario

Before partnering with Maventic, the refinery aimed to optimize operations by harnessing the power of their data—production metrics, equipment sensor readings, and maintenance records—to drive informed decision-making and operational excellence.

Challenges

Operating with fragmented data systems, the refinery struggled with limited visibility, reactive maintenance, and missed optimization opportunities that were impacting efficiency and profitability.

• Diverse Data Source Integration – Production data, sensor streams, and maintenance logs existed in silos across incompatible systems, making it nearly impossible to gain unified operational insights or identify patterns across the enterprise.

The customer is a subsidiary of an Osaka-based chemical company and one of the largest industrial paint companies in India. It develops and supplies decorative, automotive and industrial coatings.

Business Scenario

Before partnering with Maventic, the client had an SAP and a production forecast application (third-party system), wherein the latter was incapable of exposing REST APIs.

Challenges

Operating with disconnected systems and manual forecasting processes, the company struggled with inefficient data exchange and delayed decision-making.

• Lack of REST API Functionality – Required direct engagement due to the forecast application’s inability to access SAP system information.
• Manual Demand Forecasting – The process was entirely manual, relying on standalone applications.
