Mining & Infrastructure - Advisory, Delivery, Recovery
Tenders & mobilisation planning
Project readiness built through structured planning and real-world delivery
BlueForge supports mine owners, contractors, and civil operators from tender stage through to operational start-up, delivering integrated mobilisation strategies that align bid commitments with on-the-ground execution. Our approach combines compliant tender development, fleet and labour planning, infrastructure enablement, and maintenance facility readiness to ensure every aspect of project mobilisation is sequenced, scoped, and resourced for practical delivery. From shift planning and logistics coordination to site establishment and risk assessments, we enable a structured, compliant start-up that reduces delays, mitigates early risks, and sets the project up for sustained success in remote or high-pressure environments.
Fleet & resource planning
Resourcing strategies for operational readiness
We assist contractors and owners in determining the optimal fleet size, configuration, and labour mix required for mobilisation. Using production targets and contract terms as a baseline, BlueForge helps define shift structures, plan labour deployment, and establish sequencing for crew mobilisation—ensuring readiness from the ground up.

Tenders & bid preparation
Scope alignment and compliant bid development
BlueForge helps operators build tenders that reflect the real-world demands of mining execution. We provide technical and commercial input to strengthen bid submissions, ensure costings are grounded in delivery experience, and align resource strategies with contract expectations. Supporting documentation is developed to meet compliance and evaluation standards, increasing bid credibility from the outset.

Mobilisation & execution planning
Site enablement aligned with operational and compliance milestones
BlueForge develops integrated mobilisation plans that prepare remote sites for compliant and efficient project start-up. From haulage logistics and camp layouts to enabling infrastructure like workshops, laydowns, and utilities, we coordinate all elements required to bring a greenfield or restart site to operational readiness. Our focus is on staged delivery aligned to contract timelines and safety standards—ensuring personnel, equipment, and contractors arrive to a site that is functionally ready for work.
Key Services:
Maintenance facilities planning
Fit-for-purpose infrastructure for remote operational continuity
BlueForge plans, specifies and costs maintenance infrastructure for remote projects, focusing on tensioned membrane structures that offer rapid deployment, durability, and flexibility. These facilities are designed to support equipment servicing with integrated bays, lifting systems, and essential services. Our scope includes layout planning, equipment specification, and procurement coordination—ensuring each facility meets operational needs, safety standards, and site conditions.
Key Services:
Operational readiness assessment
Risk identification and readiness assurance
Before site access, we help operators assess whether their mobilisation plan meets practical and contractual requirements. BlueForge conducts resource and capability gap assessments, procurement risk checks, and milestone tracking—ensuring the project is positioned for safe and credible execution. These assessments provide an early opportunity to recalibrate plans, address vulnerabilities, and ensure alignment between delivery expectations and on-the-ground capability.
