Several interrelated challenges are forcing organizations to revisit business-as-usual (BAU) activities. These disruptive forces include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The <strong>rise in electric vehicles<\/strong> and the addition of renewable energy sources are creating supply chain complexities as organizations shift away from fossil fuels.<\/li>\n<li>The negative attention associated with environmental protests against oil and gas production and infrastructure expansion is making it harder than ever before to <strong>attract new talent<\/strong>. At the same time, retaining talent is becoming more challenging as subject matter experts retire.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Digitalization<\/strong> promises new efficiencies across operations but introduces cybersecurity vulnerabilities which requires change management to ensure employees adopt and embrace new ways of working.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Climate change<\/strong> continues to impact how organizations operate and prepare their assets to respond to major climate events.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While navigating these forces adds complexity, organizations cannot lose sight of their responsibility to operate safely, reliably, and profitably. However, managing BAU activities while pursuing strategies to navigate the changing business environment seems elusive for most oil and gas employees.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"blockquote testimonial\">\n<p class=\"testimonial--quote\">The combination of the energy transition and the rise of electric vehicles is having profound impacts on the industry, from changing the timing of asset obsolescence to reducing the demand for motor fuel.<\/p>\n<p><cite class=\"testimonial--author_info\">Cicely Striolo<br \/>\nMarket Development Manager, Oil &amp; Gas<br \/>\nCopperleaf<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Watch this video clip for a deeper dive on the disruptive forces challenging the oil and gas sector:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EcQY05da1so\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4>Four Steps to Move from Reactive to Predictive Planning<\/h4>\n<p>Moving from reactive to predictive investment planning requires a mature sector to embrace data-driven decision making and model what-if scenarios to prepare for the next disruption. During the webinar, I described a four-step capital planning process used by some of the world\u2019s leading asset-intensive organizations:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Align your people on value:<\/strong> Create a singular definition of what creates value within your organization, starting with a value framework that includes your measurement of financial and non-financial benefits, risks, KPIs, and corporate assumptions. This gives employees a transparent view into how well investment opportunities align with your company\u2019s strategic goals.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enable a consistent process to assess value:<\/strong> Combine your asset sustainment needs with your business needs (or keep them siloed if appropriate) and evaluate them in a consistent manner aligned to the value framework defined for your organization. Use automated workflows that respect different levels of authority across the organization to expedite the approval process for planned sustainment projects as well as emergent needs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leverage existing data to make better decisions:<\/strong> Combine new project proposals, projects approved for delivery, and executing projects in a single enterprise-wide system to manage your organization\u2019s total portfolio of work. Bring in actuals from project management and financial systems, and integrate data from asset management systems. By leveraging existing data, companies can manage available budgets and predict future investment needs to prevent large waves of funding requests.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leverage technology to balance trade-offs across scenarios to deliver on your goals:<\/strong> Finally, use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to optimize business and asset needs to deliver the right projects at the right time, that will deliver the greatest value to the organization.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In this video clip, I explain how oil and gas companies can move from a reactive to a predictive approach to capital investment planning:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/l7KGzYYhTMw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4>A Holistic Approach to Transformation<\/h4>\n<p>Copperleaf and Accenture have been working together for several years to help asset-intensive organizations <a href=\"https:\/\/copperleaf-test.majortom.dev\/blog\/guest-post-enterprise-portfolio-management-the-business-case\/\">improve their investment planning and project portfolio management (PPM) processes<\/a>.
