VOR | Governed execution layer for upstream supply chain and logistics
The command centre for supply chain and logistics in upstream operations.
VOR connects planning and decision systems, ERP, personnel and specialist logistics tools into one trusted control layer across cargo, materials, readiness and logistics execution. It turns priorities into live execution, spots exceptions early, and routes the next step with approval and full audit.
Works with your existing planning, decision, personnel and logistics systems. VOR is not a system of record.
One operational picture across cargo, materials and logistics
Stop chasing updates across ERP screens, spreadsheets, forwarders, vessel schedules and flight plans. VOR connects the systems you already run and gives operations one place to see what is moving, what is late, what is at risk and what needs action now.
Materials and cargo coordination under control
Track shipments, manifests, rentals, chemical supply, containers and readiness through one trusted operational record.
Field to HQ visibility
Give basin teams live operational control and leadership a cross-asset view of drift, exposure and performance.
Controlled action with full audit
Surface exceptions, draft the next step, route approval and keep the audit trail intact.
From siloed truth to actionable truth
VOR helps teams move from fragmented system facts to trusted operational context, predicted exceptions and controlled next steps.
Siloed truth
RAWEach system tells the truth within its own boundary. Purchase orders, work orders, vessel movements, flight plans and logistics events live in different places.
Consolidated truth
CLEANSEDVOR separates trusted data from front-end applications and connects history, shared operational data and reusable APIs into one operational context teams can act on.
Contextualised truth
LINKEDData becomes an operational story with dependencies and impact. This item is linked to this work order, on this voyage, due on this date, affecting this asset, this compressor, or this turnaround milestone.
Actionable truth
ACTIONVOR predicts exceptions before value is lost, drafts the next controlled step, routes it for explicit approval in the flow of work, and records the decision and outcome.
How VOR enables execution
VOR sits between planning systems, systems of record and the "operational surface". It routes signals, contextualises the next step and maintains full audit through agentic execution with explicit approval.
Planning and decision systems
VOR does not replace planning. It connects scenarios, priorities, constraints and recommended actions from planning and decision systems into live execution.
"Operational surface"
The "operational surface" VOR taps to deliver signals, insights and next steps where SMEs already work, including Teams, Zoom, email and reporting surfaces, so they can review context, intervene quickly and keep the operation moving.
VOR: execution and context layer
The layer that turns fragmented signals into trusted operational context, controlled next steps and full audit.
Asset context and simulation systems
Readiness, simulation and impact context from asset and digital-twin systems, connected into VOR to inform execution.
Governed data layer
Event history, shared operational tables and trusted data ready for workflow, search and reporting.
Systems of Record
ERP, EAM, procurement and personnel systems remain authoritative in their own domains.
Specialist operational tools
Freight, marine, aviation, rail and road systems continue to drive domain execution while VOR synchronises the cross-system picture and coordinates the next step.
One platform. Multiple wedges. Expand basin by basin
Start with the workflow that is leaking time, money or production. Expand on the same platform as adoption grows.
Platform
VOR Core
VOR is the command layer for upstream supply chain and logistics execution. It connects ERP, planning systems, vendor feeds and live tracking into one trusted operational picture, spots exceptions across the chain, and routes the next step into the flow of work with explicit approval and full audit. Built to work across existing systems of record, VOR brings shared context across materials, marine, aviation, road transport, rentals and chemicals.
- Bring fragmented logistics data into one trusted operational picture
- Predict clashes, shortages and execution drift early
- Route controlled next steps into the flow of work
- Maintain enterprise accountability with approvals and audit
Key benefit
Move from fragmented facts to trusted operational control.
VOR Forge
Turn a supply chain question into a working operational view in minutes.
VOR Forge turns plain-language requests into live operational views built on trusted VOR data. Ask the question, get the watchlist, dashboard or workflow view needed to work on it without waiting in a BI queue.
Ask once. Get the view. Keep it watching.
From geopolitical disruption to customs delay, overdue approvals and readiness risk, Forge turns urgent questions into working operational views teams can use immediately.
Built on governed VOR APIs
Uses AI to interpret the request and approved VOR APIs to generate views against live operational data teams can work on immediately.
Rendered inside a controlled operational environment
Runs inside a controlled runtime with short-lived access and approved proxy calls to VOR APIs.
From one-off question to standing operational watch
Save the exact view behind a watchlist, summary or exception screen and keep monitoring it over time.
Forge walkthrough
How a question becomes a working view
The data already exists. The usable view does not.
Critical answers sit across freight, warehousing, customs, inventory, scheduling and tracking systems, but teams still wait on report queues to make the data usable.
Coming next
Turn any Forge view into a live subscription
Save the exact view behind a watchlist, summary or exception screen and keep monitoring it over time.
- Preserve the exact query context
- Monitor operational changes over time
- Notify users at the point of work
- Keep provenance, approvals and audit intact
Governed by design
Forge separates trusted data and provenance from the front-end view generated for the user. Each view runs inside a controlled boundary and calls approved VOR APIs through a secured proxy.
Point of work
See what needs intervention. Move the next step under control
Intervene where value is at risk today
See which shipments, sailings, flights, rentals and materials need action now.
Challenge avoidable spend with evidence
Stop extra sailings, flights and air freight using one trusted operational record, not email chains.
Track supplier and forwarder performance on the same record
Compare delivery, approvals and exception handling against the same rules and the same data.
See readiness risk before work slips
Spot work order and material risk before it becomes deferment.
Move approved action into the flow of work
Route the next step to the right owner and keep provenance, approval and audit intact.
Controlled action
AI that drafts the next operational step. Your team keeps control
VOR uses AI to reduce admin, not remove accountability. It watches live operational context across shipments, approvals, readiness and movements, frames the issue with provenance, drafts the next step, routes it to the right owner for explicit approval, and records what changed, when and why.
Where governance allows, approved actions can write back to existing systems. Where it does not, VOR still moves work through controlled tasks, alerts and notifications.
