Case Study: Major Integrated Oil Company achieves $10M+ annual transportation savings with AlixPartners real-time predictive analytics

Major Integrated Oil Company - Customer Case Study

Major Integrated Oil Company’s downstream business was losing money because it relied on daily gas-level reports and manual sales forecasts to decide when to deliver fuel to gas stations. This led to deliveries that were either too early, driving up transportation costs, or too late, causing costly runouts. AlixPartners was brought in to help improve replenishment timing and reduce these inefficiencies.

AlixPartners implemented an IoT-based predictive analytics solution using real-time tank sensors, a custom algorithm, and visualization tools to monitor inventory and optimize delivery schedules. The system factored in tank size, truck capacity, time of day, holidays, and weather to determine the ideal time to send trucks. As a result, Major Integrated Oil Company lowered transportation costs by more than $10 million annually, largely eliminated runouts, and increased gas sales within months.
