PwC’s new Mining Intelligence and Benchmarking capability


Recently PwC Australia bolstered its capability to raise productivity in the global mining industry through the acquisition of the GBI Mining Intelligence business (GBI), a leader in analysing big data for mining industry players worldwide.

GBI pioneered the use of big data in the global mining industry over the past 15 years by aggregating and measuring comprehensive data on mining equipment productivity and reliability worldwide. The data is then used to provide intelligence on the performance of a wide range of critical mining equipment ranging from trucks, electric rope shovels, front-end loaders, hydraulic excavators, backhoes and drills.

The GBI database, now owned by PwC, reflects the equivalent of more than 7000 years of mining equipment productivity and reliability information collected from client equipment monitors worldwide.
Former GBI CEO, Graham Lumley together with two former GBI staff have joined our Brisbane Consulting team to form a new operating unit called PwC’s Mining Intelligence and Benchmarking led by Stephen Loadsman, PwC Consulting Australia’s Mining & Energy (Oil and Gas) Leader.
