Story
Inside Rio Tinto, plant and field operations used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in materials groups working out of the United Kingdom. Operations engineers needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Rio Tinto uses Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence from Hexagon as the working layer for operations visibility. Hexagon provides digital reality and industrial software for measurement, design, and operations in manufacturing and geospatial work. The practical change is simple: plant and field operations has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Rio Tinto gets from Hexagon is a durable place to run plant and field operations and a way for operations engineers to see the same operations visibility at the same time.
