Case Study: Shell Iraq

Challenge

Shell’s People Logistics Unit (PLU) in Majnoon, Iraq, is responsible for the safety and well-being of Shell’s workforce on site. The PLU team was facing a number of challenges, including:

  • Lack of real-time visibility of the workforce: The PLU team did not have a way to track the location of their workforce in real time. This made it difficult to ensure the safety of their employees and to respond to emergencies.

For example, if there was an accident on site, the PLU team would need to know where everyone was in order to send rescue teams to the right location. Without real-time visibility, the PLU team could waste valuable time trying to find people, which could put them at risk.

  • Inefficient systems and processes:The PLU team was using a number of different systems and processes to manage their workforce. This was time-consuming and inefficient.

For example, the PLU team had to use different systems to track employee attendance, manage travel, and keep track of training records. This made it difficult to get a complete picture of the workforce and to ensure that everyone was up-to-date on their training.

  • Lack of data integration: The PLU team was not able to integrate data from their different systems. This made it difficult to get a complete picture of the workforce.

For example, the PLU team could not see how many people were on site at any given time, or where they were located. This made it difficult to plan for emergencies and to ensure the safety of the workforce.

Solution

The PLU team decided to implement the Restrata platform to address these challenges. Restrata is a cloud-based workforce management platform that provides real-time visibility of the workforce, streamlines processes, and integrates data.

Since implementing Restrata, the PLU team has seen a number of benefits, including:

  • Real-time visibility of the workforce:Restrata provides the PLU team with real-time visibility of the workforce. This allows them to track the location of their employees and to ensure their safety.

For example, if there is an accident on site, the PLU team can quickly see where everyone is and send rescue teams to the right location. This has helped to save lives and improve safety.

  • Streamlined systems and processes:Restrata has streamlined the PLU team’s systems and processes. This has saved them time and money.

For example, the PLU team no longer has to use multiple systems to track employee attendance, manage travel, and keep track of training records. This has saved them time and money, and has made it easier to manage their workforce.

  • Integrated data: Restrata has integrated data from the PLU team’s different systems. This has given them a complete picture of the workforce.

For example, the PLU team can now see how many people are on site at any given time, or where they are located. This has helped them to plan for emergencies and to ensure the safety of the workforce.

Result

As a result of these benefits, the PLU team has been able to improve the safety and efficiency of their workforce. They have also been able to save $4M over the course of one year plus additional resources by integrating systems.

Conclusion

The Restrata platform has helped Shell’s People Logistics Unit to improve the safety and efficiency of their workforce. The platform has provided real-time visibility of the workforce, streamlined systems and processes, and integrated data. As a result, the PLU team has been able to save $4M over the course of one year plus additional resources by integrating systems.
