The SMART Summit is an interactive forum that addresses the practical challenges relating to process manufacturing and mining in South Africa.
Rather than being purely product centric, SMART brings decision makers, thought leaders and industry specialists together to learn from each other. Whether you are a current user of ApplyIT's Operations Suite or not, SMART will challenge you to further develop and build best practices for your company in the areas of safety, health, environment, plant operations and quality systems.
Our speakers have been selected for their wide range of experience and knowledge, including C Level (Board), plant managers, IT specialists and local industry thought leaders. This year we are proud to have presenting amongst others Dave Schaller - General Manager for Group IT at Illovo Sugar, Gary Cundill - Group Manager: Technology & SHEQ for AECI, and Barry Visagie - Area Manager at Lanxess CISA, as well as our own Gavin Halse - Managing Director of ApplyIT.
For current users of ApplyIT's Operations Suite (including the leading IntelliPERMIT, SmartSURE, FlexiLOG and OptiRUN modules), the summit provides an excellent opportunity to interact with the product developers and the support team, to assist you in maximising value from your investment.
The summit is also designed to allow for informal networking and discussion regarding practical applications of operations, safety and quality systems in mines and production plants.
Delegates to SMART Summit 2008 included representatives from a number of South African enterprises in petrochemicals, mining, utility, chemicals, pulp & paper - including BHP Billiton, Eskom, Illovo, Lanxess, Mondi, Namakwa Sands, SA Bioproducts, Safripol and Sasol. 
The ApplyIT team are on hand and will be delighted
to be your hosts at this unique event as we continue in our "pursuit of excellence" in 2009!
