Insight helps companies across the globe solve their most pressing business problems, utilising its own capabilities in security, data and AI, intelligent edge, modern applications, infrastructure, workplace services and much more.
One of those benefitting from Insight’s invaluable expertise is Roy Hill, a world-class integrated iron ore mining, rail and port operation in Western Australia.
The pair have a longstanding relationship which has involved Insight building Roy Hill’s critical pit supervisor application, designed to assess fitness for work and ensure proceedings run like clockwork.
Since then, Insight has stepped in to play a key role in delivering a range of innovative solutions that enable Roy Hill to improve its operational efficiency, productivity, and performance.
Solving complex problems
One might ask why Insight is uniquely positioned to help Roy Hill drive better business outcomes.
"Insight has played a crucial role in helping Roy Hill drive better business outcomes,” Kate Flanagan, Executive GM IM & Technology at Roy Hill."
Veli-Matti Vanamo, the organisation’s CTO for the APAC region, recalls being asked such a question by Roy Hill’s then-CIO when their partnership first began.
“My answer was the same as it is today,” asserts Vanamo. “Insight has unique capabilities and skills in the region working collaboratively with the client, but with the benefit of having over 14,000 technical experts from our global pool of talent who can help solve complex problems.
“We work with the client by making our unique IP available for them to utilise in their projects to move faster, reduce costs and bring certainty.”
He adds: “When it came to our first engagement with Roy Hill, the pit supervisor application, we brought our frameworks, our kits, the way we work, but also our accelerator code for mobile workforce management, and used that to deliver the project very quickly, which is what we’ve continued to do ever since.”
The partnership has seen Insight build Roy Hill’s Azure and AI platforms, deliver their integration platform, and manage their Microsoft Enterprise License agreement. As their solutions integrator partner, Insight provides end-to-end support to drive Roy Hill's success.
