Project Overview

Crimson Vortex partnered with Brunei Shell Petroleum to support the development of EBA 2.0, an enterprise backend system designed to measure, evaluate, and scale vendor performance within the oil and gas industry.

The project focused on backend development, comprising an API-based middleware layer and a CMS implemented using Umbraco. The system serves as a centralized platform that enables Brunei Shell Petroleum to better understand vendor capabilities, compliance, and performance metrics.

Business Challenges

Brunei Shell Petroleum required a robust backend system to address several operational challenges related to vendor management:

1. Fragmented Vendor Performance Data

Vendor-related data was spread across multiple systems and formats, making it difficult to gain a holistic view of vendor performance and compliance within the oil and gas ecosystem.

2. Need for Standardized Performance Measurement

There was a need for a structured and standardized approach to assess vendor capabilities, performance indicators, and operational readiness at scale.

3. Enterprise-Grade Integration Requirements

The system had to integrate with existing enterprise platforms and workflows through secure and reliable APIs, while remaining flexible for future expansion.

4. Controlled Content & Data Governance

As a large enterprise in the oil and gas industry, Brunei Shell Petroleum required strong governance over data, content structure, and access control within the system.

Our Solution

Crimson Vortex delivered a backend-focused enterprise solution built around middleware services and a CMS-driven management layer.
