HME & Plant Spares Availability Transformation

THE challenge

A leading mining multinational faced a critical disconnect between their supply chain and HME (Heavy Mining Equipment) maintenance. This resulted in a complex and chaotic material flows, constant spare part shortages, and a lack of visibility within their work order system, hindering efficient maintenance and increasing downtime.

THE SOLUTION

HybridFuzion delivered clarity and direction to the mining operations, transforming material flow and  maintenance processes for greater stability and predictability. We achieved this through a comprehensive approach:

  • Optimized Material Flow Network Design: We crafted a strategic network design, leading to more stable and predictable material flows across multiple mining complexes.

  • Enhanced Spare Parts Traceability:
    We reclassified SAP material master data, enabling precise tracking and traceability of spare parts used in work order processes, minimizing downtime and improving accountability.

  • Integrated Kitting and Staging Processes: We developed a system-driven kitting and staging process, seamlessly integrated with SAP Work Orders, harmonizing supply chain and maintenance planning and execution for enhanced efficiency.

  • Centralized Kitting and Staging Hub: We upgraded existing infrastructure to create a centralized Works Order kitting and staging hub, supporting multi-week maintenance planning requirements, ensuring proactive resource management.

  • Real-Time Operational Dashboards: We implemented real-time operational dashboards to proactively manage kitting and staging processes, ensuring alignment with work order requirements, providing immediate visibility and control.
