Extending the supply base of the one of the world's biggest mining companies
Extending the supply base of the one of the world's biggest mining companies

Client's problem:

Our client is one of the biggest mining companies in the world, specialised in operating in the open mining sector. While analysing its purchase structure, the client decided some time ago to try to cut down on supply costs, in particular the type of heavy, custom-made machinery that was to be used in its new projects all over the world. As potential new suppliers could be found in Central Eastern Europe the company assigned the search to PMR.

Our solution:

The PMR team suggested beginning the project by screening the countries of the region in order to establish where potential suppliers may exist and - if found - whether they have: the required experience of manufacturing this particular part of mining machinery; the manufacturing capacity; a quality management system, as well as experience in working with the world's biggest players in the mineral extraction field.

Delivery time:

6 weeks

What the client received through this project:

As a result of this project's identification of key potential suppliers, the client has received a detailed view of the sourcing possibilities in Central Eastern Europe. Consequently, the client was able to begin the supplier assessment process and commence RFQ with its new potential partner companies.
