The Challenge
Eliminate Islands of Information
Within many mining organizations, the use of spreadsheets and disparate systems has led to inconsistent processes and conflicting information. This can lead to time wasting disputes, incorrect decisions, errors, and high IT overhead. Data from all points of the supply chain, through to details of contracts, invoices, and payments, tend to be owned by individuals within the organization.
In order to meet the demands of complex contracts and man-age sophisticated logistics, it is crucial to consolidate and manage the relationships of operational data, as well as make it visible and accessible to all stakeholders in the organization. Mining companies are also increasingly subject to both internal and external scrutiny, so it’s critical to be able to track and verify commercial data trails.
