The global mining industry plays a vital role in the world economy by providing essential resources to businesses, including coal, metals, minerals, and precious stones. Generating several trillion dollars in revenue annually, the industry encompasses thousands of active mines spanning many countries around the world.
Yet the sector faces a series of pain points and needs, including the need to reduce risk and improve safety, meet ESG and sustainability goals, ensure regulatory compliance and good governance, better understand mine site performance, and achieve system and data integration. These factors heighten the imperative of optimizing condition monitoring practices and workflows.
To understand condition monitoring trends and practices across industries, Bentley Systems commissioned ThoughtLab to conduct a global survey of 400 industry experts from North America, Europe, and Australia. Experts included a mix of C-suite executives, technical managers, and technical staff working for companies ranging in size from under 100 employees to over 1,000.
