BPCL partners with Accenture to transform its sales, distribution network

BPCL has partnered with Accenture Public Limited Company to digitally transform its sales and distribution network. BPCL will be able to leverage the competencies of Accenture in data, artificial intelligence and cloud computing for building and implementing a digital platform called IRIS. IRIS will have the capability to integrate real-time data from across BPCL’s countrywide network, including more than 18,000 fuel retail outlets, 25,000 tank trucks, 75 oil installations and depots, 52 liquefied petroleum gas bottling plants, and 250 additional industrial and commercial locations. This will help BPCL in faster decision-making, advanced intimation of repairs and operational issues, and synchronised and coordinated utilisation of its available resources.
