BioBiz — Biofuel Supply Chain Software for Heating Plants

BioBiz FAQs

• What is biofuel supply chain software?

  Biofuel supply chain software is a tool that digitalises the fuel procurement process for heating plants and their suppliers. BioBiz does this by monitoring every fuel contract for volume, quality, and delivery schedule in real time, giving both company staff and suppliers a shared, up-to-date view of deliveries — and replacing Excel sheets and manual, person-reliant routines with one system.

• How does the fuel call-off function work in BioBiz?

  The call-off function lets suppliers confirm the volumes they will deliver and optimize their deliveries accordingly. Information is made available to both companies and suppliers through a straightforward polling process, so the right people can see delivery status and volumes without chasing updates, which streamlines coordination between a heating plant and its fuel suppliers.

• Does BioBiz integrate with VIOL 3?

  Yes, BioBiz adapts to VIOL 3 without requiring changes to the customer's own systems. This lets heating plants align with VIOL 3 requirements while continuing to run their existing setup, so the integration does not disrupt current ways of working.

• Is BioBiz a SaaS product?

  Yes — BioBiz is offered as a SaaS (software-as-a-service) solution. This means minimal capital commitment to get started, since there is no large on-premise system to buy and maintain, and the service is accessible to both company personnel and suppliers who need delivery information.

• What problems does BioBiz solve for heating plants?

  BioBiz addresses three common problems: limited visibility into contract delivery status and stock volumes, cumbersome Excel-based and person-reliant administration, and a lack of shared delivery data with suppliers. By giving real-time insight into delivered volume and quality against contract terms, it improves control, reduces tied-up capital, and supports better stock and delivery planning.

• How does BioBiz help with invoicing and follow-up?

  BioBiz streamlines invoice verification and speeds up monthly accruals for delivered volume and cost. It compares delivered volume and invoiced price against contract terms, flags deviations with real-time notifications, and makes inventory volume reconciliations quick — while keeping historical data on hand to support supplier negotiations.

• Who uses BioBiz?

  BioBiz is used by heating plants and energy operators that purchase biofuel, along with the suppliers who deliver it. Everyone in the fuel procurement process benefits, from purchasers who need control over contracts and deliveries to suppliers who use the call-off function to confirm and optimise their volumes.
