The company was heavily reliant on paper-based processes for planning and dispatch operations, which was not only time-consuming but also prone to errors. Furthermore, the company needed a solution that would allow it to respond more quickly to sales fluctuations at fuel retailing locations. The lack of a digital solution was hindering the company's ability to adapt to changing market conditions and optimize its operations.
