Falling prices led to a focus on cost reduction...
…in order to offset squeezed margins.
…now productivity and working capitalare targets to help improve performance.
“Miners are having tocontend with rising costsin every facet of thebusiness, from the energyand materials they use tobuild and maintain mines,to the people andequipment needed towork them and the U.S.dollars to pay for them.Cost issues do notdiscriminate by themetal produced or thesize of the miner.”

Performance is driven by the integration of SupplyChain, Maintenance and Operations

Operations needs torelease equipment toMaintenance whenscheduled.
Maintenance needs toperform repairs asplanned and scheduled forequipment reliabilityand respond quickly tobreakdowns.
Supply Chain needs toprovide the right partswhen needed in the rightplace at the right timewhile managing workingcapital requirements.

The key question
How can we secure access to the right spare parts and consumables when they areneeded, where they are needed?
How can we optimally configure our activities to ensure uptime, at optimizedinventory levels to manage working capital?
How can we minimize maintenance and still ensure equipment reliability,availability and manage costs?
How can we manage our inventories of spare parts and consumables given thechallenging geographical locations that our mines operate in?

Overview of Maintenance Strategies in Mining

Maintenance has far reaching impacts
• Maintaining plant, fleet, facility and equipment represents a major portion ofmining operating costs, typically from 30 to 50%.
• Break Downs and Un-Planned maintenance is 3x to 5x more expensivethan planned maintenance, this does NOT include the cost of process interruption,production efficiency or scrap - resulting in lost revenue.
• Many mining operations run at less than 70% operating efficiency because ofbreakdowns, idling production and other operational issues.

Example: Impact of Maintenance
Some key affects of reactive maintenance:
• Inappropriate skills or contractors used
• Other planned scheduled work is disrupted
• Downtime searching for required parts
• Expedite costs for required parts not
available
• Informal and intuitive work procedure
• Rushed or unclear verbal instructions
• Rough sketches rather than standard
drawings
• Ad hoc safety / risk issue coverage
• Overtime costs and worker fatigue
• Repeat repairs and job quality issues
• Incomplete records for analysis

It may not be intuitive but less is more!
Less Maintenanceactivities
Only focused onmaintenance where
needed based on actualcondition
IncreasedReliability
With increased focuson condition
measurementsreliability increases
IncreasedAvailability
Only intervening whenneeded based on
condition increasesavailability to
equipment
IncreasedProductivity
With increasedavailabilities of
equipment comesincreased productivity
Less is actually more with an improved tactical approach to maintenancefocused on Condition Based Monitoring.

However, inventory strategies require a balancedapproach between performance, risk and costs
When focusing mostly onperformance, organizations tendto overstock all materials.
Focusing on risk usually over-estimates criticality of materials,impacting associated stock levels.
Few organizations focus on all threeareas of Performance / Risk /Expenditure in a balanced fashion,and excess MRO inventory is usuallythe result.

Inventory strategies have to be refined yearly foroptimizing stock positions, and require historicalinput from:
Failuremanagement
Maintenancemanagement
Warehousemanagement
Procurement
Safety stock parts:• Criticality of failure effects• Likelihood of failure effects• Costs related to holding the inventory• Which parts to hold in stock and how much
Procurement input:• Time required to get the spare part• Costs related to getting the spare part• Reliability of the suppliers• Warranties
Reserved stock parts:• Maintenance schedules• Estimated number of parts to be replaced during
maintenance• Costs related to holding the inventory• Replenishment rules
Physical management of inventory:• Number and location of warehouses• Physical management of warehouses• Accuracy of inventory records• Time and costs required to get the material to
the mine site

Improper Material Management leads toabnormal levels of excess stock and un-usedmaterials for working capital mobilization
Key questions for effective MM:
• What is the inventory turn, if any?
• Are ABC classifications being used:
‒ Per moving type‒ Per criticality‒ Per cost
• Is stock allocated with respect to theseABC classifications?
• What is the zero-stock policy?
• Are cataloguing tools sharedthroughout the organization?
• When was the stock last reviewed forobsolescence?
18
PwC
Performance starts with the integration of SupplyChain with Operations and Maintenance
Integration starts with Operations releasing equipment to Maintenance on time, andMaintenance performing as scheduled, with available Materials.
The first step to performance management is through acceptance of a joint responsibility,supported by mutual commitments – which can be documented with service level agreements

SLAs
With sufficient visibility on demand, Supply Chain can develop properstocking and inventory strategies.
Absence of SLAs often result in:
• Equipment abuse
• Delayed maintenance
• Rush orders
• Cancelled work orders
• Returned materials
• Excess stock and obsolete materials
19
PwC
Developing stocking and inventory strategies is acomplex exercise involving Operations,Maintenance and Supply Chain
Our suggested high level approach involves Maintenance (steps 1-3), MaterialManagement (steps 4 to 8) and Procurement (step 5)
Define inventory levels
Define stocking strategy
Engage vendors on lead time and “VMI”
Cross reference Criticality, Service Level and ABC
Develop Material ABC classification (price & velocity)
Define criticality at the material level, and assign service level
Identify BOM
Map equipment and assess criticality1

A successful inventory optimization exercise cantarget 15 to 30% inventory value reduction
The excess stock is often identified withoutimpact to service level (moving inventoryposition from to ).
The benefits are valued through inventoryreduction and working capital release.
Our typical approach is :
1. Perform diagnostic to identify root causes forperformance gaps & improvement opportunities
2. Determine target stock given current constraints& business requirements
3. Implement target stock & define processes tomaintain the optimized situation
4. Further improvement. Reconfigure SupplyChain Management (SCM) to improve servicelevel and/or reduce cost
Benefits realization depends on material type(fast mover or slow mover )

An inventory optimization exercise is always abalanced approach between production, cost andfinancial return
The objective should be to improve the overallservice level delivered by Supply Chain andMaintenance to Operations, while reducingthe amount of working capital mobilized.
Foundational elements include:
• Review materials criticality,
• Reliability-centred maintenance on criticalassets
• Condition-based monitoring.
• Analysis historical demand and supply,
• Revisit lead time with vendors,
• Define revised stock levels.

Foundations for Balancing Uptime and WorkingCapital
• An Integrated Maintenance and Supply Chain Strategy that reflects andsupports the Vision & Mission of the organization.
• An effective mechanism to link strategy with maintenance and supply chainprograms and execution.
• Robust mechanisms to execute the program.
• Targets and Measures as part of the programs process.
• Data and Tools to measure performance.
• Reward/Recognition Programs to create an environment for “sustainableperformance” and driving the right behaviours.

How effective are your Uptime and WorkingCapital programs?
Value “Killers” Value “Builders”
• Setting reactive and arbitrary targets
• Lack of transparency of key cost and valuedrivers
• Operations lack of understanding of theimportance of maintenance activities
• Maintenance lack of productivityprioritization
• Lack of communication and integrationbetween Supply Chain, Operations andMaintenance
• Managers receiving weak inventory,operational and maintenance information
• Incorrect tactical choices in Maintenanceactivities
• Strong direction from the C-suite forimproving uptime and working capital(roadmap)
• Defined asset management strategy withinvolvement from Supply Chain,Maintenance and Operation
• Effective and efficient execution of themaintenance program
• Clear ownership of uptime and workingcapital at the operational level
• Frequent analysis and communicationbetween operations, supply chain andmaintenance managers
• Culture of continuous improvement -challenge of the status quo
