The operation

A coal operation in Mozambique, owned by an Indian steel group.

The whole fleet managed from site and from the group’s head office in India.

Network conditions and regulations that differ from the group’s Indian sites.

The problem

The group wanted its Mozambique fleet reported in the same definitions as its Indian mines, rather than in a separate local format, with a defined path to fuel reconciliation.

How the work is phased

Phase 1Fleet management kit on every machine.
Phase 2Flowmeter integration to reconcile fuel per machine.
