News and insights

Digging deeper

In the ever-evolving landscape of the mining sector, technological advancements have emerged as the cornerstone of innovation, ushering in a new era of efficiency, sustainability and growth.

Platform culture: Mastering the art of information flow

Platforms can take many shapes: Some are internally focused on productivity gains, while others target markets facilitating ecosystems. Others assemble apps and infrastructure into workflows through a technology platform. And some are high-value industry platforms with custom capabilities. While there are plenty of varieties, digital is the central ingredient — and culture is what delivers the change needed to support new operating models.
