“ It ’ s not just a singular problem you ’ re solving and in using Operational Excellence tools and a value-based approach to show the value , you can achieve many goals across all levels of the organization ”
— Liezl van Wyk Director of Operational Excellence SSR Mining this . He notes that historically , SSR had focused solely on improving productivity at the mine ; but by making great improvements in truck productivity and Operational Excellence it has allowed the company to look at the next bottleneck . Through the centralised system at Marigold , operators now have access to real-time analysis on site performance which allows them to take immediate action and move forward faster than ever before . SSR is also completing its first multiple drills automation project to significantly improve both drilling and blasting , but O ’ Kane is keen to stress it goes beyond simple productivity benefits .
