Did you miss our webinar, Modernising METS with Digital Technology? In this article, we summarize some of the webinar’s main points.
Last November 25, AlphaBiz Solutions Director, Shadi Kheder; and TOKN Business Development Specialist, Yolande Couderc, collaborated for the Modernising METS with Digital Technology Webinar.
In the webinar, the two experts discussed where they believe the mining equipment, technology, and services (METS) industry is headed with the latest innovations and put a spotlight on creating a strongly connected and mobile workforce with the help of platform technologies.
Below are some of the key takeaways from the discussion:
Emerging Technologies
Showcasing the present technological landscape in the METS sector before delving into the future, the webinar discusses some of the innovations currently utilised by most mining companies in their operations.
Digital Adoption Model
In line with the topic of modernisation and the adoption of new technologies, AlphaBiz provided a model which showcases the three main factors that businesses want to improve when they begin implementing technologies: Control, performance, and insight.
To achieve improvement in these three areas of the business, the digital transformation must focus on improving functionality, ensuring smooth adoption, and providing greater oversight.
Platform Technologies
One of the many challenges that businesses in the METS sector face when wanting to begin a digital transformation is having to consider the legacy systems already in place. A solution that does not require a major overhaul of current technologies or systems within the operations is platform technologies.
As a provider of this specific solution, TOKN discussed how different systems can be integrated into a platform technology that can be accessed both online and offline on different devices such as phones, tablets, or desktops.
