Boliden had developed multiple in-house and on-premises solutions to monitor mining operations, but none provided a consolidated view, and many still relied on significant manual effort. The company needed to automate and centralize data collection, increase visibility across processes, and add new ways to analyze information. Focusing first on its site in Garpenberg, Sweden—one of the world’s most productive zinc mines—Boliden worked with Nexer Insight, a member of the Microsoft Partner Network, to build a new platform on Microsoft Azure technologies and resources.
