(March 2013) McLean, VA – MOSIMTEC will be attending the upcoming 6th International Industry Summit on Business Process Performance in Pittsburgh, PA, on May 14-16, 2013. Since 2004, the summit has become the place for hundreds of international process improvement professionals to gather real-world techniques for implementation in their energy and minerals companies. The program is shaped by top leaders from the industry, and the keynote speakers are mining executives whose focus on cost containment, increasing safety and productivity performance, organizational change, risk management, and sustainability helps improve business improvement efforts. MOSIMTEC will be co-presenting a session regarding Case Studies on the Application of Performance Simulations Tools in the Mining Industry. Simulation technology is evolving rapidly and the mining industry is realizing the value it can add. New and existing mines (underground and surface) across multiple commodities are finding new ways to identify opportunities and improve performance from the mine face to the customer. Benefits include process improvement, visualization of how operations and activities work at a detailed level, reduced capital expenditures, lower operating expenses, use for long-term/annual planning, and other improvements. The MOSIMTEC presentation will include a selection of mining industry case studies highlighting business process improvements through the use of simulation. These case studies include green- and brownfield operations across multiple commodities, including optimizing mining operations and supply chain from mine to port. Attendees will walk away with a better understanding and insight on how simulation could potentially help their organization improve performance. The John and Willie Leone Family Department of Energy and Mineral Engineering at Penn State, the University of Arizona, West Virginia University and the University of Pittsburgh will host the 6th International Industry Summit on Business Process Performance in Pittsburgh, PA, on May 14-16, 2013.
