description: >-
  Arkema integrations settle through commercial supply and distribution
  agreements rather than a metered API invoice. FinOps mapping is structural
  only — covering procurement-grade cost allocation rather than per-call usage
  charges.
notes: >-
  No public developer pricing — placeholder only. Costs flow through goods
  pricing (per-tonne or per-unit polymer, adhesive, coating, intermediate),
  freight and service charges rather than a metered API line item.

    description: >-
      Track Arkema and Bostik spend inside procurement and supply-chain
      systems; there is no metered usage feed for catalog or order APIs.
  - name: Allocation
    description: >-
      Allocate cost to the product line, plant or finished-good SKU that
      consumes the polymer, adhesive, coating or intermediate.
  - name: Optimization
    description: >-
      Optimize through grade rationalization, volume consolidation, regional
      sourcing and joint sustainability projects rather than API call tuning.
  - name: Accountability
    description: >-
      Procurement and R&D jointly own the supplier relationship; sustainability
      teams co-own Scope 3 reporting tied to Arkema purchases.
