WHO WE WORK WITH

Energy & Natural Resources

Realise potential in the Energy & Natural Resources supply chain

These are testing times for commercial leaders in Energy & Natural Resources. Strong commodity demand has driven production pressures. Complex, international supply chains have been heavily disrupted. Volatility in energy prices has been difficult to navigate for buyers, let alone for producers balancing production plans with anticipated market conditions.

This is also the time of greatest opportunity in Energy & Natural Resources. The energy transition creates tremendous demand for mineral inputs. ESG consideration has driven new appreciation of total value in the supply chain. Procurement & Supply Chain leaders are now more than ever the key strategy influencers and central to success of the business.
