Workflow

The Ecora workflow from planning through delivery performance.

Ecora is easiest to understand when it is shown in the same order the business works: plan, source, route, nominate, monitor, and improve.

Ecora workflow sequence

Forecast need

Start with expected load, delivery requirements, and operating assumptions by location and period.

2

Run scenarios

Compare alternative supply, path, and cost cases to understand tradeoffs before committing.

3

Check availability

Bring in current supply and operational conditions so the chosen scenario reflects what is actionable.

4

Evaluate transport

Review route economics, rights, constraints, and imbalance considerations.

5

Support nominations

Use the combined commercial and operational picture to make better daily nomination decisions.

6

Measure outcomes

Review actual delivered volumes, costs, variances, and what changed during execution.

7

Improve the next cycle

Use what happened in operations to sharpen future planning and commercial decisions.

8

Stay aligned

Keep commercial and operational teams working from the same operating truth.
