Structured Project Intelligence Built Into Every Assignment
Digital Construction Management (DCM) is a core service within Tacmin.ai, TacminMadini’s digital project intelligence platform. It replaces traditional spreadsheet-based estimating and siloed planning workflows with a structured, system-integrated environment that links cost models, delivery schedules, and contractor performance into one execution framework.
Powered by globally proven technology and embedded in every TacminMadini project since inception, DCM ensures cost traceability, live performance tracking, and early risk visibility — all essential to managing complex mining and infrastructure delivery.
It’s not software we created. It’s a delivery discipline we apply.
How It Works: From Uncertainty to Control
Most mining and infrastructure projects don’t fail at the planning stage — they drift during execution. That drift often comes down to fragmented systems. Schedules are updated in isolation, contractor claims rely on assumption rather than evidence, and scope changes are addressed after they’ve already impacted progress.
TacminMadini’s Digital Construction Management (DCM) approach changes this by embedding real-time project control into the execution phase from day one. Progress is tracked against earned value baselines and milestone commitments, giving planners, engineers, and commercial teams a shared, data-backed view of actual site performance.
Monthly valuations are based on measurable outputs, while variation orders are captured and priced in real time with clear visibility into cost and schedule impact. Look-ahead planning alerts the team to potential risks such as procurement slippage or labour gaps. All costs — fuel, labour, materials, equipment, consumables, etc — are linked to traceable unit rate logic, maintaining a live audit trail.
As conditions change, DCM enables scenario modelling to assess options and adjust execution strategies. Early warning indicators highlight potential slippage before delivery is affected. Claims are validated through structured workflows tied directly to scheduled and measured performance.
This isn’t just oversight — it’s embedded, active control. It turns uncertainty into measurable, accountable execution.
The Result: Projects Delivered with Certainty
DCM has supported successful outcomes across greenfield mine builds, brownfield expansions, and distressed recoveries. Our clients have used this system to maintain strict cost controls, execute with agility, and meet delivery targets even under capital pressure. In contrast to conventional reporting tools, DCM’s integrated oversight connects the dots between performance, scheduling, and financial accountability — eliminating the gaps where projects often fail.
Because DCM tracks contractor performance continuously, projects avoid the costly lag between problem and response. Schedules are held because planning is dynamic. Budgets are protected because inputs are traceable. Scope shifts are addressed in real time, before they ripple through cost and timing. Claims are no longer reactive debates — they’re validated through structured, measurable proof. And when things do veer off course, project leaders have real data and strategic options at their fingertips — not after-action reports, but in-the-moment insight.
This isn’t just better oversight. It’s a control model built for today’s high-stakes, high-scrutiny projects. When delivery matters — and capital is on the line — TacminMadini’s DCM is the advantage that mine owners and EPCMs can rely on.
Executive, Investor & Peer Review Assurance
DCM enables executives, board advisors, and peer reviewers to access live project data—securely and independently. With permission-based access, capital stakeholders can review estimate logic, track financial exposure against earned value, and observe cost-to-complete trajectories in real time. Scenario testing, commentary, and strategic inputs are captured directly within the system, creating a governance and assurance layer that operates continuously from bid to final delivery. Whether providing internal oversight or external assurance, stakeholders gain visibility into project performance without interrupting operational workflows.

We don’t pitch dashboards. We demonstrate real project control — with working delivery models, live tracking, and the contractor oversight structure that’s backed every TacminMadini project since day one. For a demonstration contact Kean Blaauw.
