The challenge
The costs of poorly managed mining assets
Mining assets don't sit still. They move between pit sites, workshops and shutdowns, wear out based on hours not dates, require documented compliance registers, and their downtime can halt entire production schedules. According to McKinsey Global Institute (2023), the mining industry could unlock over $370 billion in value annually through digital technologies including real-time asset tracking, predictive maintenance and automated compliance.
Tooling disappears between shutdowns and sites
Specialty tools and equipment get allocated to a shutdown, borrowed by another crew or left at a previous site. Without a clear chain of custody you write off the loss and re-purchase. Every time.
Plant servicing runs on hours. Not the calendar
Haul trucks, loaders and drills need servicing based on engine hours and runtime. Not arbitrary monthly reminders. Missing service intervals leads to unplanned breakdowns that halt production.
Compliance registers must be audit-ready at all times
Pre-starts, design registrations, lifting equipment certifications and pressure vessel inspections must be linked to specific assets and producible on demand. Paper registers get lost; spreadsheets don't attach evidence.
Equipment downtime halts entire production lines
When critical mobile plant goes down without warning on a mining site, it doesn't just cost repair time. It stops production, cascades across the schedule and can trigger contractual penalties. You need proactive visibility.
Multi-site visibility is fragmented
Assets spread across pit sites, workshops, processing plants and shutdown locations with no single view. Each site runs its own spreadsheet or system. Leadership can't see the full picture without manual consolidation.
By the numbers
The real cost of poor asset management in mining
Unplanned downtime and missed inspections on mine sites carry enormous financial and safety consequences. The numbers make a clear case for proactive equipment tracking.

Get started
How mining teams get started
Most mining teams have their asset register imported and equipment tagged within days. Start with your highest-value plant and expand across site.
Register your fleet, tools, and safety equipment
Import your current asset register or build from scratch. Add haul trucks, drills, loaders, small tools, safety gear, and site vehicles.
Tag assets and assign to crews and shifts
Print heavy-duty QR labels rated for harsh environments. Assign assets to specific crews, shifts, or pit areas for accountability across operations.
Schedule maintenance, log defects, meet compliance
Trigger PMs based on hours or cycles, log defects from the field, track tag-outs, and generate compliance reports for site management and regulators.
Key features for mining & resources
Everything a mining or resources team needs in one platform.
Stop the loss
Equipment loss and unplanned downtime are the two biggest controllable costs in mining asset management
MapTrack gives your team the visibility, accountability and maintenance triggers to cut both without adding headcount or replacing your existing telematics.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions from mining and resources teams.
- What is mining asset management software?
- Mining asset management software is a platform that helps mining and resources businesses track, manage and maintain their tooling, mobile plant, equipment and vehicles across sites, shutdowns and workshops. It replaces spreadsheets, paper compliance registers and disconnected tools with a single source of truth for where assets are, who has them, what their compliance status is and when they're due for service. MapTrack combines asset tracking (QR codes, barcodes, GPS and OEM telematics), pre-start and inspection forms, maintenance scheduling and work orders, and reporting, all on mobile in the field.
- Does MapTrack work for shutdown and turnaround tracking?
- Yes. MapTrack supports shutdown and turnaround workflows where tools and equipment are allocated to a specific project, checked in and out by crews, and returned after completion. You can assign assets to shutdowns, run bulk audits to verify what's on site, and track handover and acceptance. Assignments and transfers are tracked with timestamps so accountability is always clear - even when hundreds of assets move between workshops and shutdown sites.
- Can we track both tooling and mobile plant in the same system?
- Yes. MapTrack supports mixed asset types in a single platform. Use QR or barcode labels for hand tools, power tools, specialty tooling and smaller equipment. Use GPS tracking or OEM telematics data for mobile plant and heavy equipment where devices or integrations are in place. All asset types - regardless of how they're tracked. Live in the same system alongside their compliance registers, maintenance history and assignments.
- How do we handle low-connectivity or underground sites?
- MapTrack is built for field use with offline support. Field crews can scan assets, complete pre-start forms, update work orders and record meter readings in areas with no connectivity. Data syncs automatically when the device comes back online. This is critical for underground mining operations, remote pit sites and processing areas where cellular coverage is limited or absent.
- Can we trigger maintenance from engine hours or runtime?
- Yes. Meter-based maintenance triggers (runtime hours, engine hours, odometer) drive work orders in MapTrack. Where you have OEM or telematics integrations (Caterpillar, Komatsu, Hitachi, John Deere, Liebherr, Teletrac Navman, Geotab and others), meter data feeds in automatically so you're servicing based on real usage. Not just the calendar. Manual meter readings are also supported where telematics is not present.
- What compliance requirements does MapTrack help with on mining sites?
- MapTrack helps mining teams meet WHS and site compliance obligations by keeping pre-start records, inspection certificates and maintenance evidence attached to each asset. This includes daily plant pre-starts required under WHS Regulations, design registration and inspection requirements for registered plant, lifting equipment and pressure vessel certifications, and site-specific compliance registers required by the mine operator. All evidence is searchable and exportable for audits. Failed pre-start items can automatically trigger work orders so defects are tracked from identification through to rectification.
- How do we run site audits and shutdown stocktakes?
- Use bulk scanning (QR or barcode) to verify what's on site or allocated to a shutdown. MapTrack records each asset scanned, when it was scanned and who scanned it. You can compare scanned results to expected asset lists and immediately see what's missing, unscanned or unaccounted for. Reports by site, shutdown or asset class give you audit-ready evidence. Stocktakes that used to take a full shift with clipboards now take a fraction of the time on mobile.
- Can MapTrack integrate with our existing plant telematics?
- Yes. MapTrack integrates with a wide range of OEM platforms and telematics providers used in mining, including Caterpillar, Komatsu, Hitachi, John Deere and Liebherr, plus telematics platforms including Teletrac Navman, Geotab, HCSS and others. Integrations bring engine hours, odometer readings, GPS location and fault codes directly into MapTrack, driving maintenance triggers and utilisation visibility without manual data entry. See the integrations page for the full list.
- How does MapTrack pricing work for mining teams?
- MapTrack uses per-asset pricing with unlimited users included. Not per-seat licensing. You can give access to every field worker, supervisor, plant operator, workshop tech and admin without your costs growing as the team does. This is a significant advantage in mining where crew sizes vary, contractors rotate through shutdowns, and you may need hundreds of people to be able to complete forms or scans. Pricing scales with the number of assets you track, not the size of your team.
- How long does it take to get a mining team set up on MapTrack?
- Most mining teams are running on MapTrack within one to two weeks. The typical approach is to start with one asset class or one site : import or scan in assets, set up your first workflows (usually pre-starts or compliance registers), and roll out to field crews. MapTrack's onboarding team supports you through setup and training at no additional cost. For larger rollouts across multiple sites, a phased approach works well: get adoption solid on one workflow, then expand to more asset types and sites.
