ChevronTexaco is a global energy company supplying the world with fuels, lubrication and hydraulic oils, asphalt, agricultural chemicals and other products derived from oil. Within Chevron, the US Light Oils division focuses on the wholesale and retail sale of gasolines and diesel fuels, with terminals and service stations nationwide.
Loudthink® team members worked from within the Chevron information systems department to automate several processes. Among the results:
 |
A payroll system — covering 14 facilities in 5 states — that captured special tax incentives for certain pay structures and reduced the required data-entry by 75% | |
|
A project tracking system for the environmental engineering group that dramatically reduced consequential liability costs by documenting the entire history of each clean-up operation | |
|
A construction and maintenance budget management program for engineering — yielding greater cost control and a more efficient appropriations process |
Loudthink® personnel were also called upon for accounting and audit services. Team members:
|
Resolved three years of inventory discrepancies at a group of subsidiary terminals | |
|
Audited construction and maintenance contracts for retail and wholesale facilities |
