CASE STUDY: Technology Adoption Improved Productivity by 5% CHALLENGE FINDINGS Significant cost reductions were made at site over the seven months (calculations based on standard shift calender time), as illustrated in the table below. The potential productivity figure was based on the site’s ability to make further improvements to productivity and cycle times. Before the iVolve FMS was installed, the tonnage was averaging at 95. After installation, the target was set at 105 tons. At the time of calculation, the payload had increased to 99 tons, leaving room for further improvement. Function Results Cycle Time 5% decrease Payload 4% increase Productivity 5% increase Cost per ton 3.3% decrease Unrealised Productivity Gain 12% increase An aggregate minin
