“In order to achieve this level of integration, Kuntz says Runge has formed business and technology partnerships with ERP companies, such as SAP, to help mining companies maximise their value and profitability through a focused approach to their mining operations.

This allows mining operations to quickly disseminate and distribute timely information throughout their organisation using a standard planning methodology and solution across the business intelligence layer.”

According to Kuntz, successful mining operations depend on the availability and reliability of information in order to make critical every day decisions, and “because of the complexity of mining data and the spatial characteristics associated with it, rapid universal access to trusted and accurate information has traditionally been difficult.

“Basing decisions on data that is misplaced, not universally accessible, out-dated, or incomplete can at best become a bottleneck in the decision making process and at worst be operationally and financially devastating.”
