Services
OMS team offers three core mining engineering solutions to the resources industry:
Mine Planning and Scheduling
Mine planning provides solutions through the application of all current and relevant information. Accurate life of mine planning is essential to the operation and the future economic success of your mining project. OMS uses state of the art mining software systems to:
- Mine optimizations
- Engineer detailed surface and underground mine designs
- Develop detailed mine schedules to support short term and long term planning
- Economic assessment of mining projects
- Operational analysis
These steps produce mine designs and schedules that are easily transferrable to onsite mine planning and short-term scheduling teams. Processes and tools have been specifically designed to convey schedule information to mine operation teams to ensure the short-term objectives are aligned with the long-term strategic plan.
Operations Improvement
Our practical experience enables us to add value and facilitate the delivery of your team’s goals through the analysis and optimization of your open pit or underground operation. This is achieved by focusing on a rigorous process of:
- Operation audits to identify areas for improvement such as fleet management, mining & equipment selection, production performance, technical integration.
- Determining the status of the current workflow, standards and processes
- Measuring performance to plan and identifying areas of under and over achievement
- Implementing business and productivity improvement solutions
- Developing ongoing control measures to maintain peak operational performance
Mine production
Mine production solutions are delivered through a detailed understanding of the mine schedule and mine infrastructure constraints. OMS has extensive experience in drill and blast design, load and haul operation and implementation in the areas of:
- Narrow vein selective to large scale mining methods
- Surface/open pit design and implementation
- Operation support in drill and blast design (including IKONS) and procedures
