What is an integrated operations centre?
An IOC is a location, sometimes remote from the actual operations, that leverages real-time data and analytics-driven insights. It helps multi-disciplinary teams collaborate around actions and solutions that improve operational, safety and financial performance. An IOC is critical for things like real-time service requests and exception-based maintenance and operations.

What about security issues?
×
To thrive in the digital world, organizations must recognize and protect themselves from the constantly evolving landscape of cyber threats.
Here’s how:
- C-suites must lead the charge, and boards must be engaged
- Pursue resilience as a path to rewards, not merely to avoid risk
- Purposefully collaborate and make use of lessons learned
- Stress test interdependencies
Expected benefits:
×

- Cost avoidance
- Reduced asset shutdown/downtime
- Supports strategic decision making
Expected benefits:
×
- Digitize error-prone, manual processes
- Reduce operational costs faster than a traditional enterprise resource planning deployment
- Redeploy employees to more higher value-added and complex activities
- Improve environmental performance and worker safety record
- Preserve flexibility while improving efficiency
What is a digital twin?
×
A continuously learning system of digital copies of assets, systems and processes are automatically queried for specific outcomes, allowing you to predict asset behaviour and capacity to deliver within given parameters and cost constraints.
