Lean construction | Tacmin construction

Our capabilities in lean mining and construction are extensive and multifaceted. We employ a cost-effective approach to compare and negotiate project prices with suppliers, OEM's and sub-contractors, using first principles and resource analysis. Our use of open-book contracts enhances transparency, fostering a collaborative environment that benefits all parties involved. We also utilize advanced project controls and IoT infrastructure to improve efficiency and value. Our commitment to reducing waste, increasing value, and enhancing customer satisfaction underscores the benefits of our lean construction approach. With us, you can expect a construction process that is transparent, efficient, and tailored to your unique needs.

Our lean construction methodology is centered on pricing projects from first principles, enabling us to compute a net cost for the project that excludes profits and overheads. Once we’ve identified the most appropriate equipment for the project, we secure formal quotations from Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), suppliers, contractors and manpower. We utilize standard contractor pricing methods and typical construction estimating software to estimate project costs from first principles and conduct an in-depth resource cost analysis. During this stage, we optimize costs in line with lean cost principles, ensuring that we deliver maximum value while minimizing waste. This comprehensive approach results in a detailed breakdown of project costs, offering our clients clear and concise financial projections. This transparency and precision are key aspects of our commitment to lean construction principles and client satisfaction.

Our focus on the resources needed to complete a project gives us a distinct edge over conventional unit rate contracts. We can precisely scale costs to align with project needs, optimizing resources throughout the execution phase. This approach alleviates the owner’s burden of budgeting waste volumes to match the production capacity of the equipment used, a common issue in contract mining. Our lean construction and mining approach ensures maximum control, flexibility, and meticulous execution. Moreover, the owner gains full transparency into the composition of operating costs. Unlike conventional unit rate contracts, they have the liberty to participate in cost optimization. This transparency ensures that any savings realized when reconciling estimates with actual costs are passed directly to the customer. In essence, our approach not only enhances efficiency but also fosters a collaborative and transparent relationship with our clients.

Tacmin Construction's strength lies in its foundation of decades of experience in mine design, planning, and conformance control, reflecting our unwavering commitment to excellence and precision. Evolving from a company rooted in mine engineering, we have expanded our offering to EPC contracting, driven by a team of engineers who have transitioned seamlessly from mine engineering to EPC roles. This experienced team brings invaluable knowledge of both mining and construction, ensuring that our projects are executed with advanced project control methods. By integrating Digital Construction Management Systems (DCMS) and adhering to PMBOK principles, Tacmin Construction's approach enhances project efficiency, reduces costs, and ensures the timely delivery of complex mining projects. Our lean construction methods are designed to meet and exceed client expectations, consistently achieving above-industry compliance with designs, plans, and budgets.

Tacmin Construction applies Internet of Things (IoT) technology during lean construction. IoT technology is transforming the construction and mining industries by introducing smart, connected systems that improve performance and safety. In the construction industry, IoT refers to the interconnectivity of wearable devices, machines, people, and sensors sharing information and data within a network. These IoT networks can be augmented and improved by deep learning systems. Systems permitting remote monitoring and management can improve information exchange and control of a project. In the mining industry, IoT is revolutionizing operations by deploying technologies like AI and IoT at mines to monitor and manage equipment performance and maintenance. Overall, the implementation of IoT in these industries leads to cost optimization & improved productivity through the use of sensors on equipment and systems that monitor performance. This results in more cost-efficient ways of running operations and reduces overall operational downtime.
