据世界石油网站8月6日报道 Achilles信息公司是一家供应链风险和绩效管理供应商，它为欧洲石油和天然气行业推出了供应商网络。

在现有的Achilles JQS和FPAL服务的支持下，新的网络将英国、欧洲和北欧的6000家供应商和148家采购方聚集至一个供应链中。

该网络将一个新的现代用户界面与一个改进的、动态的联合搜索设施相结合。一个基于社区的控制面板具有增强的分析功能，可根据Achilles持有的20年验证数据改进采购。基于现有的FPAL和Achilles JQS社区数据，并通过标准化关键活动的验证要求，为欧洲石油天然气公司提供了一个合格供应商的可搜索网络，从而提高供应商的可视性和供应商对买方的多样性。

目前可供Achilles JQS和FPAL买家使用，新用户和现有用户在更新时采用新价格，该系统将增强采购流程。新的石油和天然气网络将为供应商带来更广阔的供应链视野、更低的成本和更公平的竞争环境，这是迈向全球石油和天然气供应链管理的第一步。

Achilles采购解决方案主管凯文·亚历山大表示：“这一令人兴奋的发展创造了一个由两个经过考验的社区（Achilles JQS和FPAL）提供支持的网络，使人们能够访问Achilles 20年来经验证的数据，从而为采购和经销生成强大的工具。随着用户能够对供应商和未来计划提供深入反馈，可进一步加强我们严格的数据验证。欧洲石油天然气开发是 Achilles的一个突破性举措。”

Achilles在全球各地设有办事处，服务于工业、基础设施和自然资源领域800多个买家和50万个供应商的网络。该业务遵循合作、洞察和远景的原则，在采购中产生业务优势。

Achilles launches 6,000 member oil and gas supplier network for Europe

Achilles Information, a supply chain risk and performance management provider, has launched the most comprehensive supplier network available for the oil & gas industry: Oil and Gas Europe.

Powered by the existing Achilles JQS and FPAL services, the new network brings together 6,000 suppliers and 148 buyers across the UK, Europe and Nordics into one supply chain.

The network combines a new modern user interface with a revamped, dynamic joint search facility; a community-based dashboard with enhanced analytics for improved procurement based on 20 years of validated data held by Achilles. Building on existing FPAL and Achilles JQS community data, and through standardizing validation requirements on key activities, Oil and Gas Europe delivers a searchable network of qualified providers – increasing visibility for suppliers and supplier diversity for buyers.

Currently available to Achilles JQS and FPAL buyers with new prices being introduced for new users, and existing users at the point of renewal, the system will enhance procurement processes. The new Oil and Gas Europe will bring a wider supply chain view, reduced costs and a more level playing field for suppliers, creating the first step towards a global oil & gas supply chain management tool.

Kevin Alexander, director of procurement solutions at Achilles, said “This exciting development creates a network powered by two tried and tested communities, Achilles JQS and FPAL, enabling access to 20 years of Achilles’ validated data - generating a powerful tool for procurement and compliance professionals in the oil and gas sector, both supplier and buyer. With the ability for users to provide in-depth feedback on suppliers and future plans to further enhance our rigorous data validation, the development of Oil & Gas Europe is a ground-breaking move for Achilles.”

Achilles has offices all over the globe, serving a network of over 800 buyers and 500,000 suppliers across industrial, infrastructure and natural resources sectors. The business operates the principles of partnership, insight and perspective to generate business strength in procurement.
