With the constant advance and innovation in new technologies, themes such as artificial intelligence are a reason for success for companies that bet on this dynamic.

SBI public presentation

The SBI public presentation was yesterday and it was an opportunity to show all the joint work done between DRT Advance and IPL during the last year, regarding the enhancement of the SBI implementation process and the customer support processes.

The event took place on IPL installations in Leiria and several DRT Advance’s partners and clients were there to see the results of this collaboration.

The focus on client support is crucial for DRT Advance to accomplish our full commitment with our client’s needs, and so the partnership with IPL allowed us to get new and improved tools to manage client updates and instalments.

Artificial Intelligence, for project management in the industry

The event that was a great way to launch the SBI (System Business Intelligence), a system developed by DRT Rapid and the Polytechnic Institute of Leiria (IPL) took place on the 6th of December at 09:30 at School of Technology and Management (ESTG). Based on the use of Artificial Intelligence, this advanced production planning and management software for the moulds and special tools industry allows, through the integration of many systems, to simplify and boost the overall management of the mould production process, enhancing its effectiveness and efficiency in the manager’s decision-making. It is therefore a revolutionary tool that enables real productivity gains, cost and time reduction, thus allowing the systematization of processes and responding to the preparation of companies to Industry 4.0. The benefits may be summed up by the system’s slogan: “When data becomes knowledge, progress has no limits.”
