SUEK

Implementation of an operations planning and HRM-systems for Siberian Coal Energy Company (SUEK), Russia's largest coal producer

GMCS implemented an operational planning system based on the Enterprise Optimizer™ platform that helps SUEK enhance the management of its coal energy operations. The system lets the company optimize coal shipments and allows production planning horizons of up to 1.5 years. It also generates a monthly breakdown of the needs of individual departments and produces a complete and accurate sales plan. In addition, the company may at any time see the flow of freight on a map thanks to the Google Earth service.

GMCS also developed a unified HRM-system based on the SAP HCM (Human Capital Management) platform. Today the system manages 45,000 people from 50 SUEK companies globally.

Results of the project:

• Decrease in rescheduling time from an average of 2-4 days to 2-5 hours
• Decrease in idle inventory level by over 40%
• Decrease in number of HR staff needed from a few dozen to 3-6
• Improved service quality and customer satisfaction
