Case Study: Renewable Diesel Company improves turnaround cost control with Cleopatra Enterprise

How one of the world's biggest renewable diesel companies choose Cleopatra Enterprise to estimate their costs

a renewable diesel producer managing a major turnaround at its Rotterdam refinery faced significant challenges including a lack of established cost management processes, insufficient scope change procedures, and the immense time pressure inherent to such projects. They partnered with vendor Cleopatra to implement its Enterprise solution as an integrated cost management software to gain control over the project.

Using Cleopatra Enterprise, the company established structured cost estimation and a formal Field Change Order (FCO) process that effectively managed 1,400 scope changes. The solution provided clear cost reports three times a week, enabling well-informed, timely decision-making for management. Cleopatra’s integrated system was crucial for the successful execution of the time-driven turnaround, establishing robust procedures that could be used as a reference for future projects.
