Immersive Technologies announced the winner of the 2019 Global Business Improvement Award to be Freeport-McMoRan’s Bagdad Operations in Arizona (U.S.). Previously, the miner partnered with Immersive Technologies on improving per-hour production by reducing load times. With the help of training simulations, the miner achieved a 12% reduction in loading times.
The operators that received the training outperformed control group operators by 19%. Leadership at the mine said the supplier’s simulators helped identify and implement process improvements for greater efficiency. “Our partnership with Immersive Technologies has created a strong team focused on the success of our people and creating value for our business,” Freeman Myers, technical training superintendent, Bagdad mine, said.
