GijimaAst Mining Solutions International (GMSI) is one of the world’s largest providers of mining technical software, support and consulting services. Our strong client focus results in a flexible business model to meet the needs of different mining clients.
 
Our unique mix of IT professionals, mining engineers and geologists, and business consulting specialists allows us to provide high quality integrated advice across technology, mining technical and business process domains.
 
As a wholly owned subsidiary of the GijimaAst Group, GMSI benefits from its access to the resources and capabilities of a large publicly listed company with 3400 staff and 70 offices globally. This backing provides GMSI with the scale and capability to conduct corporate system deployments and provide ongoing services to the very largest of global mining enterprises. GMSI is the logical choice for long term partnerships spanning the interwoven world of technical, IT and business process problems.

Outsourcing
 
Large scale outsourced maintenance and support of applications. This model is often adopted by our larger corporate clients where it is not uncommon for GMSI to provide on-site and remote help desk support to user groups of over 1000 people. Applications are usually customized to the particular needs of each client.

Products
 
Our products are packaged off-the-shelf solutions that are generic in nature and can be applied in any mining environment. These solutions are scaleable from the smallest consulting firm to the largest of mining houses. Mine2-4D is an example of a packaged solution that has become the defacto industry standard for integrated mine design and scheduling. Our generic packaged solutions tend to focus on a particular part of the mining technical workflow, but can be integrated with other parts of our broader MRM (Mineral Resource Management) suite.

Technical Consulting
 
GMSI employs experienced mining professionals to assist mining clients with operational technical requirements and with evaluation of new mines and mine expansions.
 
Operational assistance regularly includes mine design, reserves and scheduling from life of mine down to the short term management of operational personnel. Evaluation studies from scoping to full feasibility are conducted by teams of GMSI consultants or in many cases our staff work embedded in client-managed study teams.
 
Contracts range in timeframe from a few weeks up to a number of years.

Business Consulting
 
GMSI employs expert consultants who evaluate and advise on strategic options for mining clients, along with business process optimization. We can offer a uniquely combined understanding of the strategic value drivers in the business of mining, along with the technologies used to plan and run mining operations. This skill set allows us to assist you to formulate a strategy and then ensure it is implemented, measured and controlled at operational level.
