S2E20 Jason van der Watt at AVA Solutions: Advanced Fleet Intelligence for every vehicle and operation
<p>Mining companies have never had more operational data — yet many mines still struggle with fragmented systems, reactive decision-making, and limited real-time visibility.In this episode of MineWarp, I speak with Jason van der Watt, CEO and Co-Founder of AVA Solutions about the evolution of Fleet Management Systems (FMS), operational intelligence, and what modern mining operations actually need from digital technology.We explore:</p><ul><li>Why many FMS deployments fail to deliver operational value</li><li>The difference between enterprise-scale and mid-tier / contract mining requirements</li><li>How smaller mines can now access advanced operational intelligence</li><li>The shift from siloed data toward integrated operational visibility</li><li>Why operational adoption matters more than software features</li><li>The future of real-time mine optimisation</li></ul><p>This conversation goes beyond software and dashboards — into the operational realities of modern mining and what it truly means to become data-driven.</p>
