Maintenance Outsourcing for Mining

Run the math against $20K-$100K/hour for haul fleet down for downtime cost. A single avoided unplanned shutdown on a critical asset usually pays for six to twelve months of program cost. Most Mining sites we work with see 3:1 to 6:1 program ROI inside year one, with higher figures at sites with higher hourly downtime costs. Sites with very high downtime costs ($100K/hr+ in some Mining operations) can see 10:1 or better.

Where MSHA, EPA water quality requires documented preventive maintenance and equipment condition tracking, Maintenance Outsourcing data provides the audit-ready evidence. Measurements traceable to SMRP Body of Knowledge, calibrated instrumentation records, written procedures, and finding-to-work-order tie-back. The program isn't structured to be a compliance tool — but the data it generates as a byproduct usually closes 60 to 80 percent of an inspector's questions about equipment condition.
