MINExpo 2016: Dassault Systèmes launches supply chain optimisation solution

Dassault Systèmes launched a new supply chain optimisation solution for the mining industry, Perfect Order, at MINExpo 2016 in Las Vegas. Perfect Order offers digital end-to-end supply chain management capabilities for more visibility, control and predictability across operations.

As mining companies strive to deliver commodity shipments to customers that are on time and meet quality specifications, an efficient and cost-effective supply chain is critical. However, lower commodity prices, more variable demand and lower grade deposits are increasing supply chain complexity, making it harder for mining companies to meet customer contract requirements.

“Mining companies are looking to experience the digital transformation that has brought operational stability, enterprise agility and improved business performance to other industries,” said Marni Rabassó, Vice President Natural Resources Industry, Dassault Systèmes. “With Perfect Order, mining companies will uncover hidden value in increased efficiency of the supply chain, which also improves the customers’ delivery experience.”

Based on Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform and leveraging Quintiq supply chain planning and optimisation capabilities, Perfect Order offers mining companies a holistic view of what is occurring throughout the supply chain, from infrastructure constraints and bottlenecks, to labour shortages or the financial impact of an operational change. In a digital environment, companies can plan across supply chain functions to ensure they meet forecast demand, visualise all activities in their supply networks and optimise the flow of goods, resulting in greater predictability for their business.
