Creating, Nurturing and Supporting a long running Site Operations System

CASE STUDY

Phobos has been involved for almost two decades in the development of software that is used at CBH grain receival sites, continually creating new features and supporting the delivery of value for the next harvest.

THE CHALLENGE: Operational Efficiency

CBH is continuously seeking innovative ways to improve the efficiency and reliability of operations across its network of receival sites. At the core of this operational success is software designed to streamline activities such as sampling and weighing. What began as a strategic technology upgrade to an existing system has evolved over nearly two decades into one of CBH’s core site operations systems that help its regional facilities run reliably.

THE SOLUTION: Modernisation and Integration

During this time Phobos has been a trusted partner, providing architectural strategy, software engineering services, and system integration required to keep the platform thriving. Throughout this long-term collaboration, Phobos has modernised legacy functionality, supported the introduction of new automation such as truck identification and automated weighbridge integration, and delivered a reliable architecture. By continuously adapting the system based on the learnings of each consecutive harvest, Phobos supports CBH in servicing successive harvests year after year.

‍BUSINESS VALUE & IMPACT: Operational throughput

With industry experience and technological advancements, the operational solutions were developed to ensure the growth and success of the CBH harvest for years to come.

“The Phobos team have been a reliable partner in building, evolving and supporting this application for CBH. Their long-standing support and collaborative approach have made them a partner we value working with.”

Jordan - Head of Digital & Business Systems at CBH Group

IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM

Phobos works to clearly define the problem within the context of the broader system, understanding constraints, data, dependencies, and real world pressures before anything is built.

BUILD THE SOLUTION

An experienced team designs and delivers the solution end to end, from architecture through to integrations and release, ensuring it works within existing systems and real operating conditions.

EXECUTE THE OUTCOME

We ensure the solution delivers measurable results in the real world, optimising, iterating, and embedding it into operations so value is realised and sustained.
