fyi...

Ted,

As discussed, please see below an outline of the changes that we are making
to the Logistics set-up in London. I also attach the Roles & Responsibilities
document we discussed - I highlight in red the sections that have been agreed
with the functional groups...

Sally,

Sorry to have missed you this week. I hope to have the opportunity to explain
to you in greater detail the changes we are making to the logistics function
in Europe. We hope to replicate this model to Singapore and possibly Houston
once we have proven the model in London.

I will also forward you a plan that we have kicked off to migrate trading
support for the Helsinki operation back to London...

Regards,
Tim

Subject: Project "Q"

Hi,

I'd like to summarise the various discussions that have taken place over the
last few days in relation to our forthcoming Logistics project, which I've
tentatively named "Project Q". At some point a prize will be awarded to
whoever can guess what the "Q" stands for...

Objective

Project "Q" has a twofold objective:

1) Implement the Co-ordination function for the London and Helsinki Global
Trading Support group - see attached for a definition of this function

2) Roll out the Products Inventory Management System ("PIMS") for the London
and Helsinki Global Trading Support groups.

Target Timescale

Completion of both objectives is currently planned for the end of May. David
and I have hastily put together a timeline which we will refine as a group at
a Kick-Off meeting scheduled for next Friday, by which time the project team
will be assembled in London - see attached .

To meet this tight timeframe, the scope of the project needs to be clearly
understood especially in relation to rolling out PIMS. Though over time 1)
functionality may be added to PIMS, 2) there will (hopefully) be a further
deployment in Houston and Singapore, 3) an interface to RightAngle may be
developed, 4) invoicing may be added etc... - for the purpose of this project
the scope of the PIMS application is limited to replacing MANIPS for the
Helsinki and London Operators (Petchems may or may not be included in this
phase). The actual PIMS specification will be finalised next week by Graham
and David (IT are currently mid-way through a full elaboration for the
system).

Project Team

Steering group will comprise me (also Sponsor), Graham and Becky.

Project Manager is Cindy (arriving from Houston on Tuesday).

IT lead for PIMS is David Rae (full time for duration of project), managed by
Iain Greig.

A Task Force comprising three contract accountants is being assembled and
will be in place by the middle of next week.

Other stakeholders/key participants in this project are Logistics in London
and Helsinki. The result of this project should be to leverage our existing
operators and improve controls by introducing a second tier support around
the Logistics function. However, for this to happen a significant
contribution will be required from all our Operators to ensure a successful
implementation within our timeframe.

Regards,
Tim
