During an analysis of the companys operations, a list is generated of assets and processes that
directly affect the companys financial results
High level of automation when building the model - Archimedes FACX features libraries of mining
assets and operating processes which can be used at a mining enterprise

To ensure the accuracy of the model, it is important to determine the capacities of all production
assets which impact the key production cycle and are a source of significant costs
Any interdependencies or restrictions should be taken into account to correctly reflect the
companys capabilities

The companys value driver model is based on detailed information obtained at previous stages
A mandatory project element will be training in Archimedes FACX operations for employees
who will use the tool in the future
Apart from using the current version of the model, company employees will be trained how to
update the model for its permanent upgrade in the future (change in performance of each
section, introduction of new equipment or a whole area)
PwC
13
Creating a value driver model from scratch can be a time-consuming process and, thus, expensive
At the same time, however, except for significant differences between opencut and underground
mining, processes using in mining operations are relatively standardised
PwC has developed its own Archimedes FACX tool, based on Microsoft Excel and featuring an
extensive database with potential processes and mining enterprise assets
As a result, model implementation takes less time and, thus, costs less. Also, the tools user-friendly
interface helps company employees make any necessary changes
