The importance of digital technologies to transform the mining industry is increasingly recognized as organizations explore solutions to improve operational performance and risk management. Mining companies are increasing their investment in automation and technological innovation, embracing new opportunities to improve productivity. Integrated Business Planning strategies bring this investment together in a unified view, providing companies the tools to revolutionize how they operate.

Forward looking Mining operators have invested in significantly improving their Business Planning and Analysis functions across their diversified operations. An Integrated Business Planning Platform integrates planning across multiple time horizons, setting targets driven by strategy at an activity level, bridging mining operations and finance together.

The goal for any mining organization is to rebalance the effort within the system to spend less time on data collection and have more time available for sensitivity analysis, scenario planning and improved resource allocation and prioritization. The reporting and analysis typically done in siloed software and solutions, limits the integration, standardization, user access and governance.
