Case Study: Boliden achieves sustainable mining operations with Nexer and Microsoft Azure

Boliden saves 2 hours a day with Nexer and Microsoft Azure

Boliden, a Swedish mining company, faced the challenge of needing to digitize and automate its operations to improve sustainability and efficiency. They lacked a unified view of their data and required advanced analytics capabilities. To address this, Boliden partnered with vendor Nexer to leverage Microsoft Azure's cloud resources, including Azure Stack Edge and Azure Cognitive Services.

Nexer implemented a solution built on Microsoft Azure, which centralized data and used AI to automate the analysis of video streams and sensor data from mining sites. This provided Boliden with 24/7 monitoring, improved insights into site performance and environmental impact, and freed up personnel for higher-value work. The vendor Nexer helped Boliden achieve measurable results, including saving two hours of operational time per day and gaining the tools to support its long-term environmental goals.
