Digital transformation is reshaping industries, but the path to operational excellence, compliance, and business agility looks very different in mining compared to energy and commodities trading. MuleSoft, as a leading integration and observability platform, is at the heart of this transformation. Publicis Sapient’s experience across both sectors demonstrates how tailored MuleSoft monitoring and governance solutions can address each industry’s unique challenges and unlock measurable value.
Mining organizations, such as major coal producers, operate vast, distributed networks of sites and assets. Their primary business drivers include:
In this context, MuleSoft observability is leveraged to provide real-time visibility into the health and performance of integration flows that connect operational systems, logistics, and compliance reporting. For example, a leading mining company faced challenges in anticipating and analyzing issues within their MuleSoft environment. Their business-as-usual (BAU) teams were stretched thin, focused on resolving incidents rather than optimizing processes. Limited data made it difficult to prioritize improvements or proactively address risks.
Publicis Sapient addressed these challenges by embedding observability points into existing MuleSoft flows, enabling:
The result is a more resilient, transparent, and efficient operational environment, where compliance and optimization are built into daily workflows.
Energy and commodities trading environments are defined by high-value, high-velocity transactions and intense regulatory scrutiny. Key business drivers include:
In these settings, MuleSoft observability is not just about system health—it’s about enabling business agility and regulatory confidence. Publicis Sapient’s approach includes:
A global energy trading client, for example, transformed their deal approval process—previously managed through emails, spreadsheets, and legacy systems—into a unified, automated workflow. MuleSoft integration reduced 14 manual steps to just four clicks, enabled 100% adoption for new trades within a week, and provided real-time, unified data to 150 users across trading, legal, finance, and compliance. Automated reporting empowered leadership to make faster, more informed decisions, while minimizing compliance risk.
What sets Publicis Sapient apart is the ability to tailor MuleSoft observability and governance solutions to each sector’s operational realities:
In both cases, Publicis Sapient’s SPEED capabilities—Strategy, Product, Experience, Engineering, and Data & AI—ensure that MuleSoft solutions are not just technically robust, but also aligned with business goals and regulatory requirements.
Mining and energy & commodities trading may share a need for robust integration and observability, but their business drivers, compliance needs, and operational workflows are fundamentally different. Publicis Sapient’s cross-industry expertise enables the delivery of MuleSoft solutions that are precisely tailored to each sector’s unique requirements—driving operational efficiency, compliance, and business growth. Whether optimizing resource allocation in mining or accelerating deal cycles in trading, Publicis Sapient is the partner of choice for industry-specific digital transformation with MuleSoft at the core.
