Workday has been named a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud HCM Suites for 1000-plus Employee Enterprises for the 11th consecutive year, reinforcing its position in large-scale workforce management. The NASDAQ-listed platform (WDAY) integrates HR, finance and IT functions, using enterprise AI to connect HR data, business processes and analytics in a single cloud environment. For mining operators running multi-site workforces above 1000 staff, this signals continued vendor stability for centralised rostering, skills tracking and compliance management.

Westbourne Civil Engineering has adopted MA EnviroTech’s MukAway platform to manage surplus materials, source fill, book haulage and generate compliance and carbon data across its road, sewer and groundworks schemes in the north of England, including Riverpark Road in Manchester (498 homes), Fox Wood Garden Village in Knowsley (350 homes) and Half Penny Meadows in Clitheroe (426 homes). MukAway now covers more than 1,000 sites and 100 companies in the UK and Ireland, with 1.4m m³ of material listed. The system offers local surplus–demand matching, the UK’s first direct digital haulage link, and ten‑year retention of Duty of Care and Materials Management Plan records, tightening auditability on bulk earthworks movements.

NavVis has launched the NavVis CLX, an agile handheld reality capture device using dual LiDAR architecture to generate clean, low-noise point clouds for high-volume, day-to-day mine and plant documentation. Positioned to complement the backpack-style NavVis VLX and trolley-based NavVis MLX, the CLX is intended for frequent use by non-specialist staff, putting “professional reality capture in every hand”. For mining engineers and survey teams, this points to wider, lower-cost 3D documentation of underground drives, process plants and brownfield modifications without full survey campaigns.
