Case Study: Major Open Cut Coal Mine improves scheduling and analytics with Prometheus Group

Coal Producer Selects Prometheus Group Solutions for Scheduling and Analytics

A major open cut coal mine in Western Australia was experiencing challenges with its maintenance workflow after implementing Oracle eAM. Their process of manually rolling up multiple work plans from Microsoft Project was inefficient, and their reporting capabilities were limited and required significant manual effort. They sought user-friendly maintenance solutions from Prometheus Group to better control their work order flow.

Prometheus Group implemented its Planning & Scheduling and Reporting & Analytics solutions for Oracle. This enabled the mine to visually plan and schedule 12,000 annual work orders with intuitive drag-and-drop capability, eliminating the need for customization. The Prometheus solutions provided enhanced cost reporting and visibility, leading to improved schedule compliance, controlled backlog, and the ability for the maintenance department to accurately justify its budget requests.
