Case Study: Vopak Terminals Australia achieves 40% productivity gain and automated purchase-to-pay with Oracle Cloud ERP

Vopak Automates the Purchase-to-pay Process With Oracle

Vopak Terminals Australia, part of Royal Vopak’s Asia & Middle East network and operator of terminals in Sydney and Darwin, faced growing operational demands including a major storage expansion. Its legacy JD Edwards system had become outdated and inflexible, driving manual workarounds that created inconsistencies, control lapses and onerous month‑end reconciliation tasks across procurement, reporting and journal processing.

The company implemented Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP—chosen in part for its localization support—to automate purchase‑to‑pay and standardize processes. The move eliminated manual matching of open POs, reduced control risks, and enabled a 40% productivity gain as staff bandwidth was redeployed from spreadsheet reconciliation to more meaningful work.
