Outliers Mining Solutions Director of Mining Brad Jewson and COO Adam Hewitt on creating world-class mining operations by investing in tech and people
WRITTEN BY : SCOTT BIRCH
Sometimes you can struggle to work out what a company actually does . You trawl their fancy corporate website , get dazzled by the design , but don ' t actually come away with the purpose . Not so with Outliers Mining Solutions . Under the bold headline ' Who We Are & What We Do ' sits a line that encompasses their proposition : ' We turn mines into worldclass operations '. So , how do they do that ? Adam Hewitt is the COO of Outliers Mining Solutions . He manages the mining operations , asset management and training divisions within the company .
In conversation with Mining Global , Adam explains how Outliers delivers operational improvement to both open pit and underground mining operations through a combination of technology services , leadership coaching , process improvement , and training . He and his colleagues work with front-line teams to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of mining fleets , maintenance departments and all areas across the mining value chain . One of the biggest challenges mining clients face is finding the right people to fill critical roles .
