AngloGold Ashanti invests in fleet management systems

AngloGold Ashanti (AGA) has selected Modular Mining Systems as its global supplier of fleet management systems. The Master Agreement with Modular is for all of its open-pit operations, as the company looks to standardise systems across its mines worldwide, to benchmark performance globally, and to share best practice across operations. A dedicated IntelliMine® specialist will work exclusively with AGA to optimise the value delivered by Modular® solutions. Mines soon to install the technology include Cripple Creek & Victor, Geita, Iduapriem, and Navachab.

The deployment at Cripple Creek in particular has been especially satisfying for AGA. Modular initiated a Change Management process, and AGA received the first phase very well. “We are extremely pleased with the way Change Management Stage 1 went,” said Vivien Hui, Global Manager, Mining Information Systems, AngloGold Ashanti (Colorado). “During this time Modular had zero safety incidents, established flexibility with our schedule, and maintained high quality of work within our multi-systems integration project.”
