TORONTO, April 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Illumiti, a leading systems integration and management consulting firm, announced today the "go live" implementation of the SAP® Business All-in-One solution for Pinto Valley Mining Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Capstone Mining Corp.
Capstone is a Canadian base metals mining company, with three producing copper mines: Pinto Valley in the US, Cozamin in Mexico, and Minto in Canada. Capstone also has two development projects: Santo Domingo in Chile and Kutcho in Canada, as well as exploration properties in Chile and Mexico.
In October 2013, Capstone completed the acquisition of the Pinto Valley copper mine and SMARRCO railroad (collectively "Pinto Valley") from a global leader in the mining industry. As a result of the new acquisition, Pinto Valley needed to transition to its own independent SAP solution-based environment within a four and a half month period.
Illumiti was selected to help implement SAP Business All-in-One.
"We felt it was critical to choose an implementation partner that understood our industry and the unique challenges we faced," said Janice Song, the project manager from Pinto Valley. "We felt Illumiti's SAP-qualified mining solution made them the right choice for our company."
The Illumiti team worked with the Pinto Valley project team to implement the SAP Business All-in-One solution under-budget and on-time. Pinto Valley's new solution, is fully owned and customized to meet its needs and includes SAP Workforce Performance Builder software as well as: financial accounting, procurement, inventory management, plant maintenance, environment health and safety, project systems and human capital management capabilities.
"Our implementation went very smoothly and was completed on- time and under- budget. We were impressed with Illumiti's approach, the quality of the team and their ability to leverage knowledge and best practices to build the right solution for Pinto Valley," said Rudy Dominguez, Business Service Manager of Pinto Valley.
