"Large-scale reform" of maintenance and repair at all of its Yakutia mining and processing divisions to achieve a "gradual transformation of how equipment's serviceability status is managed" will involve operational networking via an integrated service centre from the end of this year.
"The transformation implies the centralisation of all functions into one service and a shift towards digitalisation with all data concentrated in the SAP Plant Maintenance module," Alrosa said.
