Case Study: INEOS achieves over 90% plant utilization with AIMMS Production Planning

INEOS improves plant utilization by over 90% with AIMMS

INEOS Köln, a major petrochemical site and part of the INEOS group, faced the challenge of managing its highly complex integrated production process. They needed a new toolset to replace an outdated production simulation tool to avoid constraint violations, model day-to-day operations for years into the future, and handle 160 materials across 25 production units. They turned to vendor AIMMS for a solution.

AIMMS implemented a production planning application that models the plant's process, retrieving data from a central database and forwarding results for immediate action. This solution provided a complete and transparent overview of production and stock levels. The implementation by AIMMS led to over 90% plant utilization, greater transparency, and faster planning, allowing bottlenecks to be foreseen and preventive actions to be taken.
