Asset Management

Outliers Asset Management services help mining operations improve equipment reliability, control maintenance costs, and stabilize performance. We work alongside your maintenance and operations teams to strengthen planning, scheduling, shutdown execution, and work management discipline. By addressing root causes and building practical processes that fit your site, we help you increase asset availability, reduce unplanned downtime, and create a more predictable operation.

  • Evaluates maintenance programs, practices, and team readiness against industry standards and site goals.
  • Identifies gaps in planning, execution, and resource allocation that impact equipment reliability.
  • Delivers actionable recommendations to improve performance, reduce costs, and increase equipment uptime.
  • Structures asset registers, BOMs, and maintenance plans to reflect operational reality and support efficient execution.
  • Improves data accuracy and system usability to support planning, scheduling, and reporting needs.
  • Enhances system functionality to enable proactive maintenance and reduce administrative burden on frontline teams.
  • Streamlines planning, scheduling, and shutdown processes to reduce delays and improve maintenance execution.
  • Increases tool time and supervisor effectiveness through role clarity, training, and structured daily routines.
  • Strengthens contractor oversight and onboarding while aligning KPIs to track progress and drive accountability.
  • Transitions maintenance and repair contracts in-house to improve control over cost, quality, and performance.
  • Builds internal capacity through training, process development, and performance management.
  • Reduces reliance on third-party providers while aligning maintenance strategies with operational priorities.
  • Analyzes inventory usage, critical spares, and stock levels to eliminate excess and avoid shortages.
  • Aligns inventory practices with maintenance planning to support efficient execution and reduce downtime.
  • Improves visibility and control of parts management through data-driven strategies and system integration.
  • Strengthens maintenance leadership capability through practical coaching for supervisors and planners. 
  • Builds problem-solving discipline to address recurring reliability issues at the root cause level. 
  • Reinforces a culture of accountability and ownership across maintenance and operations teams

Our consulting engagement framework

Empower your team with the knowledge and skills required to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Discover & Align

We start by understanding how your operation really runs. Through site time, data review, and conversations with your team, we identify where performance is leaking and align on what success looks like.

Diagnose & Prioritize

We dig into the root causes behind lost tonnes, delays and variability. Using operational data and frontline insights, we pinpoint the highest-value opportunities and focus effort. where it will make the biggest impact.

Design & Embed

We work with your teams to design practical processes, decision routines, and operation disciplines that fit your site. Solutions are built to be usable on shift and embedded through hands-on coaching.

Execute & Sustain

We support execution in the put and control room, helping teams apply changes in real time. As performance improves, we transfer capability and reinforce discipline so gains are sustained long after we step back.

Outliers produced a comprehensive maintenance plan for our underground mobile fleet under a very tight timeline. They quickly understood our fleet, operating assumptions, and project constraints, and delivered a plan that was practical and defensible. It was detailed enough to support our study requirements while still being realistic from an operational standpoint.

Frequently Asked Questions

We evaluate planning, scheduling, shutdown performance, maintenance execution, and system integrity to identify root causes of downtime. The outcome is a clear, prioritized roadmap to increase asset availability and reduce reactive work.

Yes. Most sites already have the tools they need. We focus on improving data integrity, asset hierarchies, preventive maintenance strategies, and user discipline so your existing CMMS delivers stronger operational value.

Work Management Improvement strengthens planning, scheduling, backlog control, and execution discipline. When work is properly scoped, prioritized, and scheduled, wrench time increases and unplanned downtime decreases.

MARC In-Sourcing helps operations transition maintenance contracts back in-house to improve cost control, accountability, and performance visibility. It is typically considered when contract performance or cost efficiency is not meeting expectations.

We review stocking strategies, reorder levels, critical spares, and inventory accuracy to reduce excess stock while protecting uptime. The goal is to improve parts availability without tying up unnecessary working capital.
