With iSolutions forming part of RPM, we will offer customers around the world – from mining companies to OEMs – unrivalled technology solutions to meet the existing demands of the industry and take them into the next era of mining.” iSolutions offices in Brisbane, Santiago and Johannesburg have amalgamated with RPM’ s existing offices in those locations and employees of iSolutions have joined the RPM team to propel sustainable growth.
An Asset Maintenance program is essential in the everyday demands of the mining industry. Australia’ s MEX says it understands this and this is why it ensures“ that you are able to maintain costs and improve margins through strategic asset maintenance guided by the MEX Maintenance Software. From facilities to manufacturing and everything in between, companies are looking to more effective and productive ways to utilise their equipment and facilities, and keep it running in peak condition. MEX Maintenance Software is one of the major tools enabling this visibility and control, and can form the core of maintenance operations for a wide range of industries.”
The company adds:“ By providing an accessible and easy to understand maintenance management platform, operators can now breakdown ongoing patterns in machinery wear and usage, and access granular data to know when machines will breakdown, and organise their operational schedule ahead of time to take the equipment out for repair at the optimal time, eliminating unscheduled downtime and unexpected hits to the bottom line. With this capacity for forward planning, implementing MEX also leads to a range of added benefits, such as reduced costs and more flexibility in supply chains, as it allows for more predictive operations and in turn the ability to follow this predictive capability down the line. This leads directly to cost savings on purchases as stock levels can not only be maintained, but more forward-thinking purchasing can be carried out, eliminating unscheduled downtime which is further compounded by having to wait for critical parts. All supported by the total portability and accessibility of MEX through hand-held devices.”
From requests, entire days’ worth of work orders and history, to the ability to plan and schedule maintenance, MEX says it is giving businesses the ability to gain an edge in a competitive environment.“ MEX is Australia’ s leading CMMS provider, and any company needing to track assets, parts, and labour, while
