Octave Loop Core

Loop Core is a comprehensive supply chain management solution for capital projects, available as SaaS or on-premise. It helps EPCs, owners and fabricators reduce risk, control costs and accelerate schedules — covering everything from Bill of Material (BOM) intake and change management through procurement, expediting, logistics, contracts and site material readiness in a single, web-based platform.

Loop Core is built for engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) firms, project owners and fabricators executing capital projects across industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, power, mining and infrastructure. It supports projects of all sizes and complexities, from regional builds to globally distributed mega-projects with thousands of stakeholders.

Loop Core covers the full project supply chain: BOM and requisition management, a supplier and contractor portal, purchasing and contracts, expediting and logistics, inventory and warehouse management and construction material planning. Embedded analytics surface bottlenecks while digital workflows replace the manual, disconnected processes that slow capital projects down.

Loop Core offers flexible deployment: a modern SaaS option for fast time-to-value and minimal IT overhead or a customer-managed on-premise license for organizations with specific data residency, security or infrastructure requirements. Both deployment models are entirely browser-based — no client-side installation — providing consistent access for distributed project teams, suppliers and contractors.

Yes. Loop Core works with leading 2D and 3D design tools — including Forte 3D, Facets P&ID, Facets Electrical, Facets Instrumentation, Forte Isometrics, PDS and Forte 3DWorx. Through Forte Reference Data and the Standard Database, design and procurement teams share a single, validated source of catalog and specification data for accurate, efficient material hand-off.

Loop Core is natively integrated with Loop Material Readiness, Octave's award-winning Material Readiness® application for industrial construction. Loop Material Readiness uses mobile devices, IoT, smart RFID tags and barcodes to track materials from suppliers through modularization yards to the workface — giving stakeholders real-time visibility, helping crews find materials up to 10x faster and keeping field reality aligned with project data.
