Solutions that we have introduced over the years:

Budgeting and Forecasting Models

Utilized daily, these models provide accurate data measurement and streamline reporting processes. Leveraging Monthly Rolling Forecasts, users can analyse budgets and forecasts against actual data collected directly from their various source systems.

Strategic Models

The purpose of the Strategic Planning model is to facilitate the development of an understanding of the current and future asset optionality to serve as the strategic backbone to further develop and enhance the company’s portfolio value. Ultimately maintaining steady production or driving growth opportunities. The outcome of this model is to inform the executives of the optionality around an asset to drive growth discussions and informed decisions at an asset and portfolio level.

Under Ground Costing Models

The Costing Model has the main approach or framework of calculating and analysing the costs associated with various aspects of a mining operation, specifically in underground mining. This model allows for the financial feasibility, profitability and efficiency of mining projects and operations. Recognising the changing conditions within a mining operation such as production increases and/or decreases, changes to fleet sizing, worsening ground conditions, and a change in mining methods makes it extremely important to have a flexible solution that can run these scenarios simultaneously. 

Energy Models

The Energy Module represents a significant milestone in our organization’s commitment to sustainability and responsible resource management. In an era where the importance of mining and its ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) transition towards a sustainable environment is paramount, this module stands as a beacon of progress. This comprehensive solution serves as a single source for all energy and carbon-related data, offering real-time insights into the environmental impact. The Energy Model drives transformation towards a greener and more responsible future.

Exploration Models 

The Exploration model ensures an optimal and appropriate way of resourcing in brownfield developments within the mining tenement. This module seeks to capture pertinent exploration data, planning and cost, Alternative courses of actions and its associated progressions to ensure the drive of continuous improvement in data integrity when considering credible forecasting.
