Quintiq's breakthrough SCP&O solutions are helping some of the largest oil and
gas companies in the world to optimize their business planning and make fast,
collaborative and well-informed decisions across their businesses. Quintiq can
be applied to every part of the supply chain including production, processing
and distribution and to all planning levels from strategic planning to
operational scheduling.
The highly specialized team will be led by Quintiq Commercial Director Simon
Rogers, a chemical engineer with over 25 years of SCP&O experience in the oil
and gas industry, and Quintiq Operational Director Coen Verberk, who has more
than 20 years' experience in supply chain planning and optimization. Prior to
joining Quintiq, Rogers' roles included Vice President of Sales and Marketing
for M3 Technology, Chief Information Officer of KBC Advanced Technologies and
Director of Honeywell's advanced applications business unit.
'Historically, the industry has used various niche point solutions and
spreadsheets to plan and schedule its resources,' said Rogers. 'As market
volatility has increased and value chains have become more integrated and
complex, these solutions fail to manage risk or account for all relevant KPIs.
Quintiq empowers companies to optimize their value chains over all time
horizons, fully accounting for risks. I look forward to leading, along with
Coen, Quintiq's significant business growth and momentum in the challenging oil
and gas sector.'
