Newmont Mining
Corporation.
Background : - Newmont Mining Corporation was operating
Oniqua's Inventory Optimizer at sites in Nevada, Peru
and Indonesia. The idea of having Global Inventory Management
and view across all Business Units lead to a pilot project
of Oniqua's Analytics Suite Inventory Module that commenced
in early 2007. The pilot created a data warehouse for
input into Oniqua Analytic Suite resulting in a corporate
view of the data and global reporting was a major outcome.
The successful pilot led to Newmont Mining Corporation's
acceptance of Oniqua Analytic Suite for implementation
across all business units.
Implementation:
The first step in the implementation of the global Oniqua
Analytic Suite Inventory module ran in the Australian
Business Unit and Newmont Asia Pacific from November
2007 and completed in February 2008. Following configuration
and training a project was conducted to review equipment
criticality that in turn was used to assign business
impact codes across the entire Inventory. A major improvement
in assisting users with their monthly review cycles
has been the implementation of "standard"
Work Queue tasks and site-specific instructions.
The next Business Units to come online with the global
system will be Newmont Indonesia in March 2008.
