Lignite Allocation System

Dynamic allocation refers to efficiently distributing lignite resources across various applications, such as electricity generation, industrial heating, and chemical production, based on real-time demand, availability, and environmental considerations.

Launched in September 2023, a dynamic, Oracle APEX-based solution was developed for Gujarat Mineral Development Corporation Ltd (GMDC) to automate the complex, time-sensitive process of lignite allotment. Seamlessly integrated with GMDC’s Digital Logistics Management System (DLMS), the solution enables a unified framework for logistics and resource distribution. It empowers users to manage lignite allocation with precision, while offering full visibility into historical booking and allocation trends.

This initiative enhances the management of Gujarat’s lignite resources, ensures long-term energy security, and supports the state’s industrial growth through data-driven, responsive logistics and allocation processes.

  • The system cuts allocation time from days to hours, boosting operational efficiency.
  • Automation ensures accurate, error-free, and conflict-free allocations.
  • Real-time adjustments align lignite distribution with current demand and market shifts.
  • Intelligent routing lowers transport costs and shortens delivery times.
  • Landing costs are auto-calculated for the most economical dispatch.
  • Historical data access aids smart planning and better forecasting.
  • Structured workflows speed up customer request handling and service.
  • Dashboards and reports provide insights into demand and customer trends.
  • CEI scores and ranks customers to guide engagement strategies.
  • Automated dispatch scheduling reduces delays and improves delivery.
