Mining, Metals & Steel

From pit to plant to rake: every tonne and every machine in view.

Heavy equipment, ore movement, furnace data and dispatch are tracked in separate systems.

The question it answers

“Which equipment failures are cutting ore delivered to the plant this week?”

What changes: More tonnes moved, fewer breakdowns, safer sites.

All seven layers

What a pilot measures

Each pilot measures 2 to 3 KPIs you already track, before and after. We publish no benefit numbers until a customer has measured them.

  • Equipment availability
  • Tonnes per hour
  • Yield
  • Safety incidents
  • Rake turnaround

Who it is for

  • Mine/plant head
  • COO

Where it stands today

What runs today, and what we are still building.

We would rather tell you up front than discover it in week three. A pilot starts with what runs today.

Still to build for mining and steel

  • Time-series/telemetryLayer 1High-volume sensor and machine data, windowing, anomaly baselines
  • OT/SCADA connectorsLayer 1Read-only connectors to SCADA, DCS historians, PLCs (OPC-UA, Modbus)
  • Entity resolution (assets/things)Layer 3Vessels, parts, equipment tags, SKUs, sites across systems
  • Geospatial/mapLayer 4Map-native objects, routes, areas, proximity questions

Live means shipping in the product today. Partly live means part of the layer ships today and the rest is being built. Roadmap means being built and not available yet. We never show it as available.
