Flint Hills Resources (FHR)
FHR is a direct, wholly owned subsidiary, of Koch Resources LLC, which is wholly
owned by Koch Industries, Inc, a privately held company involved in most aspects of the
oil and gas industry. The operations of FHR and its subsidiaries include the following:
Three crude oil refineries (approximately 816,525 bpd of crude oil refining capacity);
Six chemical production facilities;
Four ethanol production facilities and two biodiesel facilities;
A 50% interest in Excel Paralubes, a general partnership engaged primarily in the
manufacture of lubricant base oils;
Proprietary pipelines and pipeline investments (located principally throughout the Mid-
continent and Gulf Coast regions of the United States);
FHR’s is the United States’ 9th, and the World’s 24th, largest refiner. In addition, FHR is
the United States’ 5th largest producer of ethanol. FHR is also a leading producer and
marketer of petrochemicals, producing about nine billion pounds of building-block chemicals.

#AribaLIVE
Why did FHR implement Ariba?
• Incumbent electronic commerce solution was being
discontinued. Failure to act would cause headcount addition in
the accounts payable group.
Incumbent system used for electronic transmission of purchase orders
and electronic receipt of invoices.
Incumbent system limited to small number of suppliers due to off-market
nature of EC tool and cost to enable new supplier.
Incumbent system could not handle freight, credits or blankets.
• FHR wanted to move past basic electronic commerce into a
value added method of transacting with suppliers. FHR felt we
could create a competitive advantage in our PP process by
optimizing our processes and leveraging new tools.

#AribaLIVE
Management Approval Value Proposition
• Value proposition used for management approval was based solely
on accounts payable headcount reduction through the receipt of
electronic invoices.
• Other expected benefits that were not quantified include:
Optimization of confirmation process resulting in buyers being
able to focus on higher-value tasks
Data visibility leading to better analysis
Better visibility to supplier issues on a real-time basis
(un-invoiced, bad pricing, delivery issues, etc…)
Forced business process consistency

#AribaLIVE
Document Types
• Outbound PO
Little value to FHR but high value to our integrated suppliers. Some suppliers willing to offer discounts for
electronic POs.
• Confirmation
Required by FHR on all but service POs.
Allows us to run business rules on unit price, availability and estimated delivery data.
FHR has automated a large percentage of the confirmation process with a structured, rules
based, exception process.
Able to capture approx 2 hours per day, per buyer in time savings.
• Advance Ship Notice (ASN)
When used by the supplier, allows us to see shipping documents and in some cases tracking information.
Would be optimal if all suppliers utilized.
• Inbound Invoice
Fully automated – has allowed for headcount reduction in accounts payable group.
Forced adherence to FHR data requirements.
Forced adherence to billing amount; must equal FHR PO unit price (elimination of pricing suspensions in
Maximo system).
– Resolution of FHR expected price vs. supplier’s price occurs during the confirmation exception process.

#AribaLIVE
FHR’s Implementation Approach
• FHR has made Ariba adoption a key focus and gives preference to suppliers who will transact on the network.
In several cases, suppliers unwillingness to transact on the network has caused FHR to move business from that supplier in favor of
a supplier that did transact on Ariba.
• Tiered our supplier base based on criteria:
Annual invoice count
Ariba status (currently on network or not)
Type of supplier (Materials, Service, Chem/Cat, etc…)
Complexity of transactions (blankets, spot, etc…)
• First group was a “test group” made up of predominantly of suppliers that were previously transacting on our
discontinued EC platform. All were existing Ariba customers.
• Subsequent groups were based on value added to FHR. High invoice count suppliers or those perceived to be low
enablement effort were selected.
• Have moved to a more structured approach with scheduled enablements at set intervals. This was done to minimize
the internal resources required to manage.
To set your pace your will need to get a feeling for your internal resource that you want to dedicate to enablements to include your
IT team.
• Plan is to enable all “eligible” suppliers with transaction counts that exceed our threshold.
We will remove suppliers from the network who have marginal invoice counts but high support costs.

#AribaLIVE
Achieved Value Proposition
• Payable invoice automation/optimization through electronic processing
HC reduction due to elimination of keyed invoices.
Time saved researching invoice that come in without complete/valid information (PO number, Workorder or Location).
More timely payment/capture of discounts.
Reduced calls to AP to find status of invoice (received, payment date)
• Buyer optimization
Through the automation of the confirmation process we have freed up, on average, 2 hours per day for each buyer (we
expect to capture more value in this area as we enable additional suppliers).
• Data visibility
By having suppliers return their catalog code and contract/catalog price on the confirmation we can better analyze the
data. Prior to Ariba we had limited visibility to detail spend data unless we asked the supplier for the information (high
number of “material” orders).
By taking in the supplier’s price we can see where we have issues between our expected price and the supplier’s ask
price. Using this data to better manage our suppliers.
• Forced business process consistency
Internal – forces all our sites to conform to a set process.
External – forces our suppliers to transact in a compliant manner (accurate and complete data)

#AribaLIVE
Lessons Learned
• Your implementation pain/joy is directly related to how well the supplier handles
their enablement!!!
Finding the correct contacts in the supplier’s company in critical.
– Billing, Order Fulfillment, Acct Mgmt
You cannot stop at the corporate level. In many cases the actual Ariba user is at
a local branch.
– Corporate offices don’t always communicate to the local branches. You need to ensure that the
person accepting the relationship communicates this to the people within the organization that will
do the confirmations and billing.
Test with your integrated suppliers. Monitor first transactions to ensure code rolled to
production correctly (data mapping issues).
Don’t assume that suppliers currently on the network will be a slam dunk. In many cases
field office A may be well versed in Ariba but you are doing business with field office B who
has no idea what Ariba is.
Be aware of the hidden support costs (to include IT) and tailor your enablement around this.
“Flippers” who transact infrequently may require more support as they tend to forget how to
use the Ariba front end.
• Your training documentation and up front efforts are another critical success factor.

#AribaLIVE
FHR – Supplier Collaboration
• Through the implementation of Ariba, FHR gained insight into our
supplier’s processes. In some cases, we found issues within the
supplier’s processes and/or systems that were unknown to us, and in
some cases, unknown to the supplier.
• Through the implementation of Ariba, FHR found holes in internal
processes. The visibility created by Ariba can shine a light on internal
process optimization opportunities.
• By working with our suppliers to optimize the process for both
parties, value was created across the PP process.
• Key Learning: If you can create value in the supplier’s processes, they
are far more likely to readily adopt the tool, which in turn adds value to
the buyer’s organization.
12 © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.
#AribaLIVE
Ariba – FHR Collaboration
• Throughout the implementation process, FHR worked closely with Ariba
to configure the tool to support FHR business processes.
• In many cases, FHR modified existing business processes based on
Ariba tool needs. In these cases, it was determined that Ariba was
enforcing best practices.
• FHR continues to work with Ariba to suggest changes to the product
that FHR believes would benefit the user community (suppliers
and buyers).
• Ariba has been a good partner and has worked with FHR to solve
problems that were encountered during the implementation. In some
cases, Ariba has modified their processes to better support the tool
and FHR.

#AribaLIVE
Journey to eCommerce
© 2012 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.26
• It started back in late 2008 with a
customer e-invoice request
• Our approach was to respond
favorably to the customer
• Over the next 2 years the electronic
invoicing requests exploded!
• We were ill prepared. We had no
system integrations and no plan! Our
DSO Suffered!
• Acquisitions fueled customer
demands for more e-Commerce
• It was Scary!
#AribaLIVE
Challenges
• Acquisitions that were made with a strong presence
in the Oil & Gas industry nearly doubled the size of
our company
Nearly all of the large Oil & Gas companies transacting
with us had Electronic Solutions in place or under
various phases of integration!
• We were managing the backlog of invoice and data
processing with no system to support this.
• The electronic invoice market was very dynamic!

  • 2. #AribaLIVE Presenters • Russ Hunt Director, Procurement Excellence Flint Hill Resources • Brock Hirschman Director, ePro Operations W.W. Grainger • Joseph McNally VP, Non-Standard Billing Clean Harbors © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.2
  • 3. #AribaLIVE A BUYER PERSPECTIVE Russ Hunt, Director Procurement Excellence, Flint Hill Resources © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.3
  • 4. #AribaLIVE Flint Hills Resources (FHR) FHR is a direct, wholly owned subsidiary, of Koch Resources LLC, which is wholly owned by Koch Industries, Inc, a privately held company involved in most aspects of the oil and gas industry. The operations of FHR and its subsidiaries include the following: Three crude oil refineries (approximately 816,525 bpd of crude oil refining capacity); Six chemical production facilities; Four ethanol production facilities and two biodiesel facilities; A 50% interest in Excel Paralubes, a general partnership engaged primarily in the manufacture of lubricant base oils; Proprietary pipelines and pipeline investments (located principally throughout the Mid- continent and Gulf Coast regions of the United States); FHR’s is the United States’ 9th, and the World’s 24th, largest refiner. In addition, FHR is the United States’ 5th largest producer of ethanol. FHR is also a leading producer and marketer of petrochemicals, producing about nine billion pounds of building-block chemicals. 4 © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.
  • 5. #AribaLIVE Why did FHR implement Ariba? • Incumbent electronic commerce solution was being discontinued. Failure to act would cause headcount addition in the accounts payable group. Incumbent system used for electronic transmission of purchase orders and electronic receipt of invoices. Incumbent system limited to small number of suppliers due to off-market nature of EC tool and cost to enable new supplier. Incumbent system could not handle freight, credits or blankets. • FHR wanted to move past basic electronic commerce into a value added method of transacting with suppliers. FHR felt we could create a competitive advantage in our PP process by optimizing our processes and leveraging new tools. 5 © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.
  • 6. #AribaLIVE Management Approval Value Proposition • Value proposition used for management approval was based solely on accounts payable headcount reduction through the receipt of electronic invoices. • Other expected benefits that were not quantified include: Optimization of confirmation process resulting in buyers being able to focus on higher-value tasks Data visibility leading to better analysis Better visibility to supplier issues on a real-time basis (un-invoiced, bad pricing, delivery issues, etc…) Forced business process consistency 6 © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.
  • 7. #AribaLIVE Document Types • Outbound PO Little value to FHR but high value to our integrated suppliers. Some suppliers willing to offer discounts for electronic POs. • Confirmation Required by FHR on all but service POs. Allows us to run business rules on unit price, availability and estimated delivery data. FHR has automated a large percentage of the confirmation process with a structured, rules based, exception process. Able to capture approx 2 hours per day, per buyer in time savings. • Advance Ship Notice (ASN) When used by the supplier, allows us to see shipping documents and in some cases tracking information. Would be optimal if all suppliers utilized. • Inbound Invoice Fully automated – has allowed for headcount reduction in accounts payable group. Forced adherence to FHR data requirements. Forced adherence to billing amount; must equal FHR PO unit price (elimination of pricing suspensions in Maximo system). – Resolution of FHR expected price vs. supplier’s price occurs during the confirmation exception process. 7 © 2013 Ariba, Inc.

  • 8. #AribaLIVE FHR’s Implementation Approach • FHR has made Ariba adoption a key focus and gives preference to suppliers who will transact on the network. In several cases, suppliers unwillingness to transact on the network has caused FHR to move business from that supplier in favor of a supplier that did transact on Ariba. • Tiered our supplier base based on criteria: Annual invoice count Ariba status (currently on network or not) Type of supplier (Materials, Service, Chem/Cat, etc…) Complexity of transactions (blankets, spot, etc…) • First group was a “test group” made up of predominantly of suppliers that were previously transacting on our discontinued EC platform. All were existing Ariba customers. • Subsequent groups were based on value added to FHR. High invoice count suppliers or those perceived to be low enablement effort were selected. • Have moved to a more structured approach with scheduled enablements at set intervals. This was done to minimize the internal resources required to manage. To set your pace your will need to get a feeling for your internal resource that you want to dedicate to enablements to include your IT team. • Plan is to enable all “eligible” suppliers with transaction counts that exceed our threshold. We will remove suppliers from the network who have marginal invoice counts but high support costs. 8 © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.

  • 10. #AribaLIVE Achieved Value Proposition • Payable invoice automation/optimization through electronic processing HC reduction due to elimination of keyed invoices. Time saved researching invoice that come in without complete/valid information (PO number, Workorder or Location). More timely payment/capture of discounts. Reduced calls to AP to find status of invoice (received, payment date) • Buyer optimization Through the automation of the confirmation process we have freed up, on average, 2 hours per day for each buyer (we expect to capture more value in this area as we enable additional suppliers). • Data visibility By having suppliers return their catalog code and contract/catalog price on the confirmation we can better analyze the data. Prior to Ariba we had limited visibility to detail spend data unless we asked the supplier for the information (high number of “material” orders). By taking in the supplier’s price we can see where we have issues between our expected price and the supplier’s ask price. Using this data to better manage our suppliers. • Forced business process consistency Internal – forces all our sites to conform to a set process. External – forces our suppliers to transact in a compliant manner (accurate and complete data) 10 © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.
  • 11. #AribaLIVE Lessons Learned • Your implementation pain/joy is directly related to how well the supplier handles their enablement!!! Finding the correct contacts in the supplier’s company in critical. – Billing, Order Fulfillment, Acct Mgmt You cannot stop at the corporate level. In many cases the actual Ariba user is at a local branch. – Corporate offices don’t always communicate to the local branches. You need to ensure that the person accepting the relationship communicates this to the people within the organization that will do the confirmations and billing. Test with your integrated suppliers. Monitor first transactions to ensure code rolled to production correctly (data mapping issues). Don’t assume that suppliers currently on the network will be a slam dunk. In many cases field office A may be well versed in Ariba but you are doing business with field office B who has no idea what Ariba is. Be aware of the hidden support costs (to include IT) and tailor your enablement around this. “Flippers” who transact infrequently may require more support as they tend to forget how to use the Ariba front end. • Your training documentation and up front efforts are another critical success factor. 11 © 2013 Ariba, Inc.

  • 12. #AribaLIVE FHR – Supplier Collaboration • Through the implementation of Ariba, FHR gained insight into our supplier’s processes. In some cases, we found issues within the supplier’s processes and/or systems that were unknown to us, and in some cases, unknown to the supplier. • Through the implementation of Ariba, FHR found holes in internal processes. The visibility created by Ariba can shine a light on internal process optimization opportunities. • By working with our suppliers to optimize the process for both parties, value was created across the PP process. • Key Learning: If you can create value in the supplier’s processes, they are far more likely to readily adopt the tool, which in turn adds value to the buyer’s organization. 12 © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.
  • 13. #AribaLIVE Ariba – FHR Collaboration • Throughout the implementation process, FHR worked closely with Ariba to configure the tool to support FHR business processes. • In many cases, FHR modified existing business processes based on Ariba tool needs. In these cases, it was determined that Ariba was enforcing best practices. • FHR continues to work with Ariba to suggest changes to the product that FHR believes would benefit the user community (suppliers and buyers). • Ariba has been a good partner and has worked with FHR to solve problems that were encountered during the implementation. In some cases, Ariba has modified their processes to better support the tool and FHR. 13 © 2013 Ariba, Inc. All rights reserved.
