Services built around the losses they recover.
Six defined services, each with a clear problem, a method, fixed deliverables and outcomes you can measure. Most mines start with the FMS Performance Review.
The tonnes ledger
Every service maps to a place where production is lost.
Between what the fleet could move and what it did, tonnes go to downtime, delays, queueing, loading, hauling, payload and time nobody can account for. Each service below names the losses it goes after.
- Fleet capability
- Tonnes moved
QueueingWaiting at shovels and dumps
Three trucks queued at one shovel while another loading unit waits for trucks.
01
FMS Performance Review
A fixed-scope diagnostic of your fleet management system, dispatch practice and data, with each loss sized in hours and tonnes wherever the data allows.
- Problem
- KPIs that operations and the FMS team calculate differently
- Deliverable
- Tonnes ledger for your operation: losses by category, in tonnes and hours
- Outcome
- A shared, defensible number for what the FMS is losing
02
Dispatch Optimisation
Truck allocation, queueing and shovel coverage tuned so the optimiser and the dispatchers work the same plan.
- Problem
- Trucks queued at one loading unit while another waits
- Deliverable
- Queue, hang-time and match-factor analysis by loading unit and shift
- Outcome
- Less truck queueing and shovel hang time, measured per shift
03
FMS Implementation and Recovery
Selection, deployment and rescue of fleet management systems, run around the operating model rather than the go-live date.
- Problem
- Go-live happened but the site still runs on radio and whiteboards
- Deliverable
- Deployment health assessment with a clear status and risks
- Outcome
- A system in steady state, used by the people it was bought for
04
Operational Analytics
Time-usage definitions, delay coding and short-interval control that turn FMS data into decisions during the shift.
- Problem
- Different departments publish different utilisation figures
- Deliverable
- Agreed time-usage model and KPI dictionary
- Outcome
- One version of utilisation and availability across the business
05
Mining Technology Strategy
A roadmap for fleet, dispatch and connected-mine technology, built around operating value rather than vendor features.
- Problem
- Several systems reporting the same metric differently
- Deliverable
- Systems and interface map with ownership
- Outcome
- Technology spending tied to operating outcomes
06
Capability Development
Role-based training, in-seat coaching and site champions so improvements survive after the consultants leave.
- Problem
- Wide variation in spot, load and payload between operators
- Deliverable
- Training needs analysis by role
- Outcome
- Less variation between operators and crews
