Planning Governance at BHP Queensland

MEC was approached by BHP to assist in establishing guiding systems and processes in the coal business planning unit to ensure best mine engineering and planning practice was being applied across the coal division. The team had oversight of the long-term planning and budgeting process and ensured the system could dove tail across to medium and short term planning.

The result was a process that defined how the remote corporate team will coordinate activities in mine planning across the business and particularly with sites to sustain value along the planning cycle.
