ABOUT US
VMI-Upstream is a procurement and supply chain solution specifically designed for the Oil & Gas industry by seasoned industry veterans.
Highly fragmented market participation across the value chain, complex business models and certain long-established business practices have led to structural inefficiencies within both the market and participant organizations.
