Operational Impact
The implementation of Alteryx has had a significant impact on Anglo American’s control environment. The company’s Quellaveco Copper Mine, which sits atop one of the world’s biggest copper deposits, has seen a drastic reduction in the time taken to prepare reports. With Alteryx, an automated workflow extracts data from multiple spreadsheets from the vendor and contractor, producing two detailed breakdown reports in just 30 minutes. This has improved decision-making speed and accuracy. On a larger scale, Anglo American is using Alteryx workflows in its subsidiary, De Beers, to help track over a billion dollars’ worth of rough diamonds as they’re sorted and valued. The original balancing process was manual, spreadsheet-based, and took approximately a week to complete. With Alteryx, the process is now automated and completed in just two days, helping leaders identify imbalances earlier, optimize throughput, and keep track of inventory more accurately. | |
