And a resource allocation optimization that you have to do, where you have uh a subset of materials and equipment that are on site, you have a subset of people that are on site, and you have a set of tasks that need to be done.
And um, today that is like humans trying to like sit between those three databases and decide like what is the task that's going to happen at the site.
Um, and we see a ton of opportunity.
There to do that algorithmically.
Um, that enables you, if you have all that data available, you can actually set daily, hourly goals.
Um, and then if you can automate the data capture that is happening at the site, like Boston Dynamics has the spot dog, uh, that works great.
It can kind of roam around the site, take 3D scans.
You have to do a lot of work on the software side to be able to reconcile the 3D scans that have come in to the model.
Um and then you can actually do short interval control on construction, which is effectively what manufacturing is, which is like short super short interval control.
Everyone has a dashboard that tells you, okay, how many parts are we trying to make today uh at this station and they know whether they're trending towards their goal or they're trending behind their goal uh or or exceeding their goal.
Um and like measuring the things that matter in construction, in mining, and refining, like that is actually the the like cultural
thing that needs to shift.
Yeah.
Um and then we did a good amount of um
Tried tried to do a good amount of the Tesla, but there's the ultimately you have to invest in like the software backbone that enables that.
Yeah, we're trying.
It's about measuring and quantifying.
Like I think a lot of manufacturing, like you go really deep on understanding like be because you're make making thousands of parts, you know, an hour, um, depending on the scale of manufacturing process.
Um, and that level of like measuring and measuring against goals and setting targets just doesn't happen in this like large scale infrastructure
ecosystem.
