Digital transformation for connected mining
Goldcorp is digitally enabling the connected mine for greater efficiency and safety.
VOICE OF TRANSFORMATION
Luis Canepari, vice president of Information Technology at Goldcorp, describes how the mining business is digitally transforming to enable safer and more efficient operations. Working with Accenture, Goldcorp is leveraging the connected mine concept to realize substantial outcomes, including improved safety metrics and data analytics.
HOW WE HELPED
When Goldcorp acquired the mineral rights to a mine site in Argentina, it knew it could do more to improve the productivity and safety conditions of the two mines there. To do so, it collaborated with Accenture to implement the Accenture Life Safety Solution over a six-month period.
The solution comprises a communications and data infrastructure that integrates Goldcorp’s existing Wi-Fi network with location-based technologies and gas detectors to remotely monitor workers, equipment and air quality in the underground mine.
RESULTS
Today, Goldcorp is armed with a better understanding of mine conditions, as well as the precise locations of workers and assets. The Accenture Life Safety Solution has also helped Goldcorp:
Respond more quickly to safety incidents
Improve its operational performance by enhancing communications between mine locations, and enabling better collaboration and decision-making
Analyze real-time data to generate insights on how to further improve workforce safety, productivity and asset utilization
