For remote mining operations, logistics breaks down when the truth is spread across paper dockets, warehouse WMS exports, and site spreadsheets that never agree. This anonymised case study covers a client delivery focused on event-driven traceability from goods receipt through handoff to the mine site.
What we instrumented
- Movement events at warehouse receipt, dispatch, and site arrival (barcode and manual capture where needed)
- Exception workflows for discrepancies, damaged goods, and unsigned handoffs
- Role-based views for warehouse leads, logistics coordinators, and site receivers
Results
- Reconciliation cycles that previously took days compressed to same-shift resolution for most exceptions
- Chain-of-custody gaps visible before stock left the warehouse, not after a site count mismatch
- Audit-ready movement history exportable without rebuilding spreadsheets
Delivery approach
Engagements of this type usually run in three phases:
- Map handoffs and decide what must be captured at each step (who, what, when, where)
- Design the event model and integration contracts with existing WMS or ERP touchpoints
- Roll out site by site, starting where discrepancies cost the most
If your operation has similar warehouse-to-site handoffs, describe your constraints on the contact form and we can talk through fit.
