Underground Mining Technology Assessment & Roadmap

Optimise with data, elevate with tech: Your mine's evolution starts here

Whilst parts of the underground mining technology eco-system have been around for decades, few vendors offer a truly all encompassing turnkey solution. Compounded by a lack of experts with the right domain knowledge, many operations struggle to achieve real value from their underground tech. At the same time, as operational costs continue to rise and underground mining operations become increasingly common, there is a real need to overcome this challenge.

MTS’s Underground Mining Technology Assessment sets you up with the right plan to get your solution back on track. We provide a deep-dive evaluation of your current and future Underground Technology, measuring how effectively your tools solve site-specific challenges—from personnel tracking to development work to production capture. 

As part of our assessments, the MTS team doesn't just look at the software; we look at how technology interacts with your people and processes. Our on site assessment includes:

• Systems Audit & Inventory: A thorough review of your existing technology fleet management systems (FMS), task tracking tools, autonomous/tele-remote solutions, and communication networks.

• People, Process and Skills Review: A comprehensive review of team proficiency, adoption of technology and the level of training and mentoring required to take technology to the next level onsite.

• Gap Analysis: Pinpointing specific areas where technology is underperforming or where manual workarounds are really causing pain.

• How can it further help you optimise your mine? Evaluating how your mining technology can be better and consistently harnessed to help you address operational challenges, reduce mining costs and improve safety.

• Scalable Roadmap: Providing a clear, prioritised strategic roadmap for future success, ensuring your capital investments are directed toward the technologies that offer the highest ROI.

We believe that mining technology (or “operational technology”) should be helping your improve your underground mine rather than being an expensive distraction. Whether you are a "greenfield" site looking to build a digital foundation from scratch or a "brownfield" operation seeking to modernise legacy systems, MTS provides the technical expertise and mining-domain knowledge to help move you forwards.
