Mosaic Fertilizers, one of the largest global producers of phosphates and combined potassium, opened a digital challenge, with support from AEVO Connect, to seek startups to develop a technological platform for a virtual tour of its operations in Brazil. The deadline for registration ends on September 2nd and registration must be done at website.

“We are undergoing accelerated digital transformation and we want to improve the experience of our suppliers through technological resources, with the support of startups”, highlights Ricardo Ribeiro, Digital Director at Mosaic Fertilizers.

The choice of partner goes through the following steps: first, a panel made up of members from the Digital, Business and IT areas of Mosaic Fertilizandos will pre-select the solutions, with an announcement on September 14th. On September 21st, these startups will participate in a Pitch Day to present ideas for building the platform. The winning solution will be announced by September 28th.

“We invite all startups with proposals aimed at building a virtual tour platform to register for the challenge. Together, we will contribute to making Mosaic Fertilizers increasingly innovative and digital”, highlights Julio Cesar Candido Santos, the company's Digital Innovation GT.

The adoption of the virtual tour platform aims to simplify and innovate the process of technical visits to suppliers at Mosaic Fertilizers units, from pricing to purchase, reducing costs and optimizing time with online and immediate access to the location be analyzed.

The system offered for creating the virtual tour needs to meet some requirements, such as allowing restrictions on which suppliers will have access to certain visit itineraries; limiting access time to company content; integration with the Mosaic Fertilizers bidding system; in addition to interaction for questions and comments. Virtual and/or augmented reality should also be considered.
