CMPC, the world's third largest pulp producer and a 105-year-old company, launched a corporate APC program in 2023 to address lack of standardization and heavy reliance on external vendors across its Chilean and Brazilian plants.

Recognizing the importance of a corporate APC standard for multi-site manufacturers, CMPC established an internal team and selected Aspen DMC3^™ as the single multivariable control platform.

This choice enabled standardized deployment templates, accelerated roll outs and structured knowledge transfer across sites. By building internal expertise and ensuring cross plant support, CMPC is achieving tangible operational outcomes: improved product quality, reduced process variability and fewer unplanned interruptions, advancing automation toward industry leading benchmarks.
