Teesside University students visited MHT Technology Ltd this week for a Demo Day of their solutions. Lecturer Dr Sina Joneidy wanted to immerse his MSc International Management students in a real-life example of digitalisation of work processes and MHT’s product CheckScheme was a perfect example of this.
MHT Technology Ltd, a company based in Richmond North Yorkshire, is a global supplier of tank gauging, terminal automation and stock management solutions for bulk liquid storage and handling. MHT recently launched a new solution called ‘CheckScheme’ that digitises paper-based checklists, enabling operators to carry out their checks quickly and efficiently with an easy to use app.
Inter Terminals CASE STUDY
…PEOPLE ARE NOT ROBOTS
Damian Wroblewski, Operations Manager from the largest independent bulk liquid storage provider in the UK, Inter Terminals, gave a presentation on how CheckScheme was created in collaboration with MHT. A long-time client of MHT, Inter Terminals suggested the idea of CheckScheme originally to provide a robust checking system which reduces the level of human error during product loading or discharge processes.
Damian Wroblewski commented; “When working for many years people turn onto autopilot. People are not robots: they might be tired, they might be bored, and find the job mundane. We must take the human factors into consideration, we are not perfect, however in this business one mistake might lead to a serious disaster. You can’t be distracted, even for a second.”

“The Demo Day was a unique learning experience for them, but also encouraged them in personal social and study skills. It was good to see them coming out of their shell and getting engaged with digital devices. The purpose of this field trip was to bring their classroom lessons to life and that is exactly what happened today.”– Dr Sina Joneidy

Master’s degree student Jia Li said; “it was very interesting to see how digitalisation supports the whole process of business by connecting machines to computers and therefore improving data. The Demo Day will help me with my masters because it has shown me how important it is to plan ahead to reduce risk.”
With the aid of MHT, Inter Terminals can now make the handling of hazardous materials such as petrochemicals, fuels and chemicals, controlled, measured and safer, reducing the human element of risk associated with product loading and discharging processes.
MHT hope to expand CheckScheme into other companies and help them digitally transform their operations. Contact our Sales team today to see how we can future-proof your operations.
