A community dedicated to Operational Excellence in Mining, Minerals & Metals (MMM).
Imagine a global space where miners, processors, and industry partners across the MMM spectrum come together, not as competitors but as collaborators.
A forum where challenges unique to the industry are tackled head-on through the lens of operational excellence. This is the vision behind the Operational Excellence in Mining, Minerals & Metals Community (OEMC), and we’re thrilled to unveil it to you officially.
Why now?
Despite their diverse landscapes, commodities, and extraction methods, MMM companies face strikingly similar challenges. While internal solutions exist, the need for a unified knowledge and experience exchange platform presents a critical gap.
The OEMC was born from a simple yet powerful belief: collaboration breeds better outcomes.
The OEMC Mission:
- Connect and empower: Create a vibrant community where members can network, build relationships, and collectively address industry challenges through operational excellence principles.
- Knowledge is power: Facilitate knowledge exchange, expertise sharing, and experience-driven best practices tailored to the specific needs of the MMM sector.
- Future-proof the industry: Develop operator-driven guidance, resources, and leading practices that address prioritised challenges and ensure continuous improvement.
The OEMC Focus:
While initially focusing on Australasian challenges and practices (with global participation encouraged), the OEMC will encompass the entire MMM value chain, tackling issues relevant to base metals, gold, coal, and iron ore commodities. Our scope will expand as we mature to embrace global challenges and all commodities.
