MaxMine expands into fleet management, digs into next phase of growth

MaxMine, a next-generation fleet management system built to lift mining performance, has announced its expansion into mining fleet management, with new capabilities in business intelligence and AI-powered decision support to help mine operators improve productivity, reduce variability, and lower cost per tonne.

The expansion positions MaxMine at the forefront of a sector forecast to reach over US$70 billion by 2030.

With more mine operators seeking platforms that combine trusted operational data with real-time insights to improve day-to-day decision-making and site performance, MaxMine’s new fleet management system (FMS) delivers measurable performance improvements without adding operational complexity.

The milestone builds on more than a decade of transforming mining operations for leading global and local natural resources companies, with over 230 incident investigations conducted, more than 580 million t tracked and optimised annually, and over 14 million hours of data analysed to deliver productivity gains, improve mine safety, and enhance sustainability.

Shaun Mitchell, CEO at MaxMine, said, “This expansion is a natural next step for MaxMine. The high-resolution data we hold and the capabilities we’ve built are exactly what’s needed to solve the biggest challenges facing mine sites today. 

“Mining companies are increasingly investing in operational technology, recognising the critical role it plays in improving mining performance. Fleet management and machine guidance are becoming strategic priorities, as operators look for greater visibility, better decision-making, and improved productivity across their sites," Mitchell says.

"At the same time, AI is creating new opportunities to turn operational data into real-time insights. Rather than treating fleet management, business intelligence, and AI as separate technologies, we see them coming together to help mining companies make better decisions and continuously improve their performance."

MaxMine has also partnered with Swedish-based machine control provider L5 Navigation to deliver Machine Guidance, a high-precision GPS solution that pinpoints a machine’s exact location. This enables customers to accurately determine where to drill and operate diggers, dozers, and wheel loaders using a fully supported GNSS receiver, and visualise maps, surfaces, and blocks in a real-time, synchronised 3D environment.

Machine Guidance will be combined into Pulse, MaxMine’s fleet management layer, providing mining teams with trusted, real-time visibility into fleet location, payload, cycles, production status, and operational performance. Through MaxMine’s Impact offering, this data will be turned into targeted improvement programmes across production, operators, safety, roads, and asset health.

MaxMine’s Machine Guidance integration is available now.
