“RESOLUTION implemented for Ecopetrol's Supply Chain Volumetric Information Management”

Solon, Ohio October 2003 – Resolution Integration Solutions, Inc,  (RIS) implements Resolution to manage the volumetric information throughout Ecopetrol’s complete supply chain.

“Ecopetrol has a complex supply chain involving production wells, gas wells, pipeline distribution, terminals, refineries, treatment and storage plants spanning all of Columbia. Resolution will bring overall real-time management of all of the volumetric information throughout this supply chain. Resolution will enable Ecopetrol to track material batches throughout the system, accurately report inventories and compositions at any location, and reconcile balances to ensure accuracy.”

“RESOLUTION provides for the integration of ALL plant MES data and application: operational, economic, engineering, planning, maintenance, documentation, and more.  This both provides 'one stop' shopping for data, and eliminates data ambiguity and duplicates through close integration with other systems. Thus, its benefit is that it allows the efficient use of information to improve the analysis of any aspect of the business.”

RIS, www.ris-resolution.com, founded in 1996, is a leader in providing application integration solutions to the process industries based on the Resolution product whose goal is to reduce the effort to integrate plant data and applications. Resolution is revolutionary in its approach, yet evolutionary in its implementation.  It can be implemented for an entire facility, or in one business area at a time, and has the capability to be dynamically configured to match changing user business processes.
