Welcome to the MiningFMS Blog

Introducing the MiningFMS blog — where we share insights, commentary, and updates on fleet management systems in mining.

Why a Blog?

The MiningFMS knowledge base covers the fundamentals — how GPS works underground, what makes a good dispatch algorithm, why your match factor matters. It’s designed to be evergreen, the kind of content you bookmark and come back to.

But mining FMS doesn’t stand still. Vendors release new products. Sites try new approaches. The industry argues about autonomy timelines and interoperability standards. That’s what this blog is for.

What to Expect

We’ll be writing about:

  • Industry trends — what’s actually changing in fleet management, stripped of the vendor marketing
  • Lessons from the field — real stories from real sites, because theory only gets you so far
  • Deep dives — technical topics that don’t fit neatly into the knowledge base format
  • Tool updates — new calculators, simulators, and features on MiningFMS

Same rules as the knowledge base: independent, no vendor money, no ads. If we mention a vendor product, it’s because it’s relevant — not because someone paid us.
