De Beers contracts CS Holdings for information delivery system

By IT Public Relations
Johannesburg, 22 Jun 2001

JSE-listed CS Holdings` mining and manufacturing division, CS Systems Integration, has been awarded the contract to implement an Information Delivery System at the De Beers Kimberly-based Combined Treatment Plant (CTP). De Beers is the only company active in every category of diamond mining: open pit, underground, alluvial, coastal and undersea. De Beers possesses unrivalled mining and recovery expertise in each of these categories.

The Information Delivery System that is being implemented at the De Beers CTP diamond recovery plant uses Atlantis, a Microsoft SQL-based data warehouse which was developed by CS Systems Integration as middleware.

This data warehouse captures the data from the various systems on-site and the information is viewed via the intranet in pre-configured reports according to user requirements. The project was started in March and will be completed by October 2001.
