After all, its business is creating dashboards that, among other things, enable clients to see at a glance what predictive maintenance they need to be doing. <\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cA simple thing like maintenance can save you a lot of money in the long run,\u201d says Delesh Kanjee, CEO of D22, which is based in Middelburg, Mpumalanga, and first opened its doors 17 years ago. It has an extremely loyal client base, consisting of mines, farms, and factories that run machines with lots of moving parts that can break down at the drop of a hat if you don\u2019t keep a very close eye on them.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cSome of our clients have been\nwith us for 11 years, 15 years \u2026 I am very proud of that,\u201d says Delesh, who believes\nthe secret of D22\u2019s success in innovation is simplicity. <\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cPeople like to overcomplicate\nthings,\u201d he says. \u201cWe like things to look very simple, but with deep technical\nroots behind.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<p>In other words, what the end-user\nsees is on the screen are colourful, easy-to-read graphs that tell them what\nmoving part is next for maintenance or, in the case of clients with other\npriorities, such as eliminating wastage or cutting energy costs, where the\nproblems lie.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Behind those simple graphs is an intricate web of sensors, software, and data readers that are incessantly busy with the calculations and computations needed to translate complex live data into sensible indicators for good decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Simplicity also runs through D22\u2019s\nown business model. It has learnt, for example, to break large, long-term\nprojects into smaller, bite-sized pieces with tangible goals. These tend to be\nmore palatable to clients than big, open-ended projects, Delesh says.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe also underpromise and\noverdeliver, use the ABC principle to prioritise and aim to make money on an\nongoing basis to keep our cash flow consistent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s simple, hey?<\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>D22 IT Solutions, winner of the Management of Innovation Award in the emerging enterprise category Above all else, keep it simple Doing maintenance is a lot like paying for insurance: their value only becomes clear when something breaks.
