Management of inbound and outbound material flows of energy and circular economy companies is a multi-stage process in which several different stakeholders participate.
From the viewpoint of optimal material utilization, it is important that the entire supply chain co-operates seamlessly and the data created in the process is communicated reliably and in real time between the different stakeholders.
An inadequately managed supply chain can be identified by the following:
The information generated in the different stages of the supply chain, such as the origin and price of raw materials, the operator’s capacity and demand, and delivery schedules, should be available in real time, conveniently and reliably for the different parties of the supply chain for implementation of efficient material management. This is achieved by a supply chain management system that digitizes the necessary data into a single system.
Stakeholders in the supply chain include eg.
Functions related to production eg.
The information generated in the different stages of the supply chain:
– Power and heating plants (bioenergy and other fuels)
– Waste-to-energy
– Biogas plants
– Pellet production
– Production of other biofuels
– Materials recycling
– Waste management
– Wood reception
Once by Pinja is a browser-based SaaS service model system used for real-time management of the supply chains of energy and circular economy companies with the help of a single system. Once distributes data created in the supply chain in real time to all stakeholders involved in the chain. The system is scalable for supply chain management in case of small individual plants and groups involving several plants alike.
Once rationalizes and accelerates the management, monitoring, and reporting of the entire supply chain. You can save time, effort, and money.
1. Entering data only once is enough
2. More efficient supply chain management and improved productivity
3. Efficient daily management based on information collected
4. Drastic reduction of manual work, human errors, and hidden costs; resources are freed up
Once mobile application brings flexibility for data generation in a supply chain.
By replacing their current, largely manual system, E.ON Sweden will cut the time spent on fuel calculation down to half – and still get more detailed results.
“Prior to the introduction of the Once by Pinja system, we had 50-100 invoice complaints to be investigated per month. Since the introduction of the Once, there have been an average of only one per month, which has resulted in significant savings in working hours.”
“Regarding power plants, we have been able to develop things that suit us. We therefore trusted that this partnership allows us to make developments also in the area of circular economy and waste recycling.”
“Once provides cost information about different fuel options particularly regarding our own fuel reserves. This information is worth the money for us.”
“Pellet 4Energia has almost 50 material suppliers. Once helps the company to manage the operational entity. The system shows how the suppliers meet their contractual obligations in terms of, for example, volumes and the quality of biomass fuel. The system is used in both bookkeeping and laboratory operations.”
“Fortum uses the Once by Pinja system in its plants in Finland, the Baltic countries and Poland. Thanks to good experiences, Once was also introduced at the combined heat and power plant in Klaipėda immediately in the start-up phase of the plant.”
“The modern technology of the Once system is exactly what we need in our operations. Although Haapajärven Lämpö is a relatively small thermal power plant, the powerful functionalities of the Once system provide cost savings and visible improvements in our operations already with these fuel quantities.”
“One system can provide information about our total production and matters related to the district heating network, as well as produce corporate-level financial reports, for example.”
“Today, Once registers all material streams arriving at the mill, from wood material to more than 100 different chemicals. Previously, the reception and registration of material streams was performed manually in Excel.”
“The Once solution has significantly improved and automated the entire supply chain and the reporting process of Oulun Energia. In addition to improved customer service and practical plant operations, the system helps to conform with legal requirements.”
