Change Management
For Miners, by Miners
We work with your teams at the mine site level, to problem-solve your biggest operational challenges. Our goal is simple – to create a measurable positive impact in mine performance for our clients across the full value chain.
What We Do
Our mining experts have spent years in the field and understand the day-to-day complexities at the mine site. Our expertise spans the complete mining value chain, and we collaborate with your team to solve challenges within your mining operations and with critical vendors.
While change management and operational excellence is the core of what we offer, we also work to optimize the utilization of your existing technology and systems to improve costs and productivity. Our end goal isn’t just a plan or strategy. We work shoulder to shoulder with your team to execute and sustain change for the long haul with the right tools, methodologies and behavior training.
What our clients say about us
President & CEO, mine company based in the Philippines
Our Client's Success
Increase in crusher
planned maintenance
Our team worked with a copper mine to standardize maintenance processes at their plant, performing root cause analysis on existing issues, then introducing enhanced operational KPIs visualized for continuous performance management and improvement.
Increase in equipment
availability
A gold mine was experiencing lost time due to delays and standbys in its mine-to-mill process. By installing specific routines and meetings to address drill area availability issues, delay were curbed and an additional 310 hours for drilling was freed up over just 3 months – setting up the company’s mine-to-mill process for success.
Reduction in haulage
cycle times
A base metals mine was experiencing issues with fleet utilization due to road conditions and haulage bottlenecks. By assessing tracking variability and improving maintenance compliance, Unison improved cycle times and fleet performance.
