Mastek Limited has partnered with Yanbu Cement Company (YCC), one of Saudi Arabia's leading cement manufacturers, to digitally transform YCC's production, sales, and dispatch operations through Industrial IoT and intelligent automation.
YCC operates one of the largest cement plants with over 10 million tonnes cement dispatch and approximately 220,000 truck movements annually. The partnership aligns with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 and Industry 4.0 agenda, focusing on scalability, agility, and real-time visibility while reducing manual dependency across the value chain.
Mastek reengineered YCC's mission-critical workloads under its Connected Enterprise Services framework, converging IT and operational technology. The solution integrated Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP with IoT-enabled weighbridges, automated gate systems, GPS-driven transit tracking, and a unified dashboard, enabling real-time visibility from order creation through delivery completion.
Ali AL Ayed, Board Member and CEO of Yanbu Cement Company, said the collaboration with Mastek enhanced operational efficiency and reduced costs, leading to quick turnaround and accelerated deliveries. A customer-facing digital portal enabled seamless order placement, live shipment tracking, and integrated feedback mechanisms.
Automation across loading bays, weighbridges, and security gates reduced manual intervention, improved traceability, and strengthened compliance. Smart loading and digital validation accelerated truck movement and reduced congestion, while lowering energy consumption and emissions through faster turnaround times.
The transformation delivered an increase in topline revenue driven by improved customer acquisition and order handling efficiency. Truck turnaround time improved two times, while resource depreciation was reduced, enhancing asset utilisation and operational sustainability.
