  • Internet of Things (IoT) – Leveraging smart devices and sensors for data collection and analysis in mining activities.
  • Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning (AI/ML) – Implementing AI algorithms for automated decision-making and predictive capabilities.
  • Autonomous Intelligent Machines & Equipment – Using automated mining equipment and robotics to minimize human intervention and enhance efficiency.
  • ERP Integration – Taking business operations to new heights by connecting these modern technologies with the existing ERP system.

Leadership’s Vision For The Future

Amitav Mukherjee, Chairman and Managing Director of NMDC, congratulated the digital team for their efforts, noting that the company’s digital transformation would not only drive innovation in the mining sector but also make the entire process more efficient, transparent, and data-driven.

He added, “With the successful implementation of SAP S/4 HANA, NMDC has made a significant contribution toward building a self-reliant India in the digital age.
