Mining companies must use every possible strategy to manage the pressure to produce more. Yet many mine companies are missing out on significant opportunities to boost the productivity of their mines and processing plant operations. Many industries have achieved a level of execution discipline well beyond what the mining industry is experiencing today. For example, some mines still capture operations data manually, often writing information down on paper before transferring it to an Excel spreadsheet that they then send out by email. It builds organisational and technological silos, where important information may be held in one area when it could be of great use to someone in another department, but they don't even know it exists. This paper defines the path for connected, digital mine operations using Mine Operations Management (MOM).
