IDC PlanScape: The Smart Mining Digital Framework
This IDC PlanScape report uses the IDC PlanScape methodology to explore the topic of smart mining. The intent of the methodology is to provide clients with a framework for creating a business plan by answering four essential questions: why, what, who, and how.
"Smart mining programs can deliver financial benefits that are tangible and auditable," says Emilie Ditton, head, Asia/Pacific Energy Insights. "Most importantly, though, smart mining capabilities create the basis for visibility and control, ultimately enabling better decision making based on detailed and real-time operational data-based insight to what is happening operationally across the mine."
