The Order & Movement Management (OMM) system provides a convenient and consistent tool for the translation of business orders into process movements to be executed by the operations staff.  Orders are downloaded electronically or manually entered and broken down into discrete movements. 

The system tracks in real-time and records the history of each movement and order.  Volume and time-to-complete calculations are updated continuously.  Movement data are validated using all available meters & gauges and any imbalances are flagged to prompt resolution at the operations level to ensure the integrity of transaction data uploaded to yield accounting systems.

An optional Tank Composition Tracking (TCT) module tracks all incoming and outgoing flows to calculate the material compositions, density, and CSW for any tank.  An optional Tank Quality Integration (TQI) module can calculate any qualities of the aggregate product using linear or nonlinear models.  All data are stored in the ROMSS database for use in all oil movement and blending applications.

OMM handles all receipt, transfer, rundown, blend, and shipment orders (for any tank, unit, or transport source or destination).  

Complete automation of movements can be achieved with the Movement Automation System (MAS).  MAS performs automatic and optimal path selection, checks equipment availability and status (using direct or wireless feedback), verifies product compatibility, and executes the movement sequential control logic using expert system technology and a site-specific knowledge base. 

Tank farm topology is configured in a graphical object-oriented environment.  This allows immediate updates to reflect the ever-changing physical configuration of tank farms. 

OMM provides accurate, reliable, and accessible inventory and movement data management and reporting to facilitate improvements in:
