Eric Buhler · Procurement & Supply Chain
Hi, I'm Eric and this is a side project I have been working on to increase my competency with Python, web frameworks, cloud tools, and data pipelines. These chosen macro indices are things I reference in negotiations or escalation conversations. The scope is primarily IT category management and operational oil and gas SCM metrics. Every number on every tile traces back to a public agency, and nothing here is professional advice. The about page has more on why this exists and what I've been learning along the way.
IT Macro Primary
Reference indices for software, cloud, and hardware renewal cycles. Covers semiconductor and software PPIs, IT consulting rates, and cross-border currency exposure.
O&G SCM Macro
Operational context for Alberta and BC oil and gas plus the broader Canadian SCM climate. Commodity prices, pipeline utilization, drilling activity, freight, fuel, CPI, and the supply chain stress index.
Regional
Side-by-side conditions for Alberta, BC, Canada, and the US. CPI, unemployment, fuel cost, and the US dollar index.
Well Map
Live Alberta well licences, active drilling rigs, frac disclosure, and 511 road conditions in the Wapiti and Montney corridors.
