Asset-heavy operations, where downtime is measured in millions and a botched change stops production. We've delivered optimisation and project work at national scale, including across Australia's largest export coal-rail network. We run these programs the way the sector demands: safety-critical, defensible, and built to outlast the people who delivered them.
Resources programs rarely fail on the engineering. They fail on adoption and commercials, with a tool that's technically right but never makes it into how the planning team works. On Project PACE we learned that in the open: novel optimisation is a technology problem, an adoption problem, and a commercial problem in roughly equal measure, and skipping any one of the three gets you a great research paper and not much else.
We design for all three from day one: who owns the new way of working, where it sits in next year's operating budget, and how the capability transfers to your people. The maths is necessary. It is not sufficient.
