About MiningFMS
MiningFMS.com is the independent, free resource for everything Fleet Management Systems in mining.
Our Principles
Independent
No vendor sponsorship, no referral fees, no advertising. Independence is key. Every article, every vendor profile, every comparison is written without commercial influence. We call it as we see it.
Free
All knowledge is free. No paywalls, no gated content, no email walls. This industry has been good to us — this is our way of giving back. Every article is accessible to everyone.
Comprehensive
From GPS fundamentals to autonomous haulage, from dispatch algorithms to tyre management. We aim to cover every aspect of fleet management in mining, whether you're a graduate engineer or a seasoned mine tech lead.
Why MiningFMS Exists
MiningFMS.com was created to fill a gap — there was no single, independent, comprehensive resource for FMS knowledge. Everything was scattered across vendor marketing materials, academic papers, and tribal knowledge. This site brings it all together.
Built from years of direct experience with fleet management systems across multiple mine sites and vendors, combining both the technical depth and the operational reality of FMS in mining.
