Digital construction management
From pricing to performance – a structured system for full project certainty.
Service overview: Digital Construction Management (DCM) is TacminMadini’s embedded delivery discipline, transforming tenders, estimates, and execution workflows into a structured system that aligns cost, schedule, and resource logic from day one. It replaces spreadsheets and disconnected tools with traceable estimating logic, real-time cost tracking, and integrated oversight—enabling contractors to build commercially sound, execution-ready bids, and helping EPCMs and mine owners align feasibility with delivery, validate trade-offs, and manage procurement with confidence. During execution, DCM tracks performance, scope, and capital exposure in real time, allowing early interventions and reducing drift. Executives and peer reviewers gain secure access to review estimates, test scenarios, and oversee capital deployment without disrupting operations. With project-specific training using client data, DCM builds internal capability across estimators, engineers, commercial teams, and governance. More than software, it’s structured project intelligence—enabling cost certainty, oversight, and disciplined delivery from bid to close-out.
✅ Since 1996, all Tacmin projects have been delivered through our Digital Construction Management system. View our project experience.
Training & user enablement
Training that translates into project certainty.
Digital Construction Management is built for teams that don’t just want to win tenders—they want to deliver them with control. TacminMadini provides structured, project-specific training to ensure every user—from estimator to executive—can apply the system effectively. Through live walkthroughs using your own data, we embed system logic and delivery discipline from day one.
This service is particularly valuable for:
- Commercial managers and estimators who need to improve pricing logic and reduce margin risk.
- Project engineers looking for full traceability across cost, schedule, and scope.
- EPCMs and contractors seeking structured, execution-ready tenders.
- Owners and developers aiming for disciplined capital oversight and lifecycle control.
Training ensures these users are equipped not just to operate the platform, but to apply its principles in real project scenarios—elevating capability across your commercial and delivery teams.
Contractor tender enablement
Helping contractors build tenders that win—and deliver.
Tacmin.ai supports contractors from the very first step of the tendering process. We help transition traditional, spreadsheet-based estimating into structured, scalable models with transparent logic and built-in planning integration. Through real-time bid modelling, resource logic, and scenario testing, tenders are built to be not only commercially sound—but delivery ready.
Key Benefits:
- Digitisation of BOQs with structured rate build-ups
- First-principles pricing using analytical worksheets
- Shadow bidding and benchmark comparisons
- Scenario modelling for delivery alternatives
- Cash flow and margin forecasting
- Structured tender reviews before submission
Whether you’re pricing for an EPC contract or supporting owner-side estimating, Tacmin.ai enables tenders that stand up to scrutiny, align with execution needs, and tell a clear commercial story. No more disconnected spreadsheets—just traceable logic, embedded control, and tenders that can be delivered with confidence.
EPCM & Owner enablement
Structuring live bids under real-time commercial pressure
Many mining projects falter not from poor planning, but from flawed cost models, reactive systems, and disconnected delivery logic. DCM was designed to solve this—ensuring that capital estimates are traceable, resource assumptions are grounded, and delivery models are executable from day one. By embedding cost, schedule, and resource logic into one framework, Tacmin.ai transforms feasibility studies into live execution platforms. Mine owners and EPCMs gain the ability to validate trade-offs, test assumptions, and ensure project decisions are based on structured, real-world data—not static spreadsheets.
Key Benefits:
- Executable cost models embedded in feasibility studies
- Alignment of procurement, planning, and capital tracking
- Shadow bidding with real-world benchmarks
- Scenario testing (e.g. diesel vs electric, owner vs contractor)
- Seamless handover from study phase to execution logic
- Support for owner-mined, EPCM-managed, and hybrid delivery models
Tacmin.ai doesn’t just prepare the project for execution—it builds the bridge that carries feasibility into reality.
Contractor management
Turning uncertainty into real-time control during project execution.
Most project drift occurs not in planning—but in execution. Tacmin.ai closes the gap between commercial assumptions and on-site delivery, giving EPCMs and mine owners structured oversight that’s embedded, active, and predictive. With real-time earned value tracking, live cost-to-complete forecasting, and automated variation control, Tacmin.ai ensures that performance, schedule, and budget stay aligned. It connects planning, procurement, and delivery data into a single control model, enabling early interventions—before issues escalate.
Key Benefits:
- Live tracking of cost, scope, schedule, and contractor performance
- Real-time valuation and variation pricing
- Early warning alerts for procurement delays and labour gaps
- Scenario modelling and execution reforecasting
- Unit rate traceability across fuel, labour, equipment, and materials
- Validated claims supported by measurable outputs
DCM is not a reporting tool. It’s a proactive control system that protects capital, ensures accountability, and gives owners and EPCMs the oversight required to deliver high-stakes projects with certainty.
Executive & peer review
Secure governance, strategic input, and capital visibility—without disrupting delivery.
Tacmin.ai 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.
Key Benefits:
- Role-based access for executives, advisors and peer reviewers
- Digital commentary, flagging, and audit trails
- Scenario modelling for investment and board-level decisions
- Real-time capital exposure, valuation tracking, and financial impact insights
This is more than a reporting feature—it’s embedded executive and investment oversight, giving leadership teams, capital providers, and strategic partners the confidence, transparency, and control needed to govern complex, high-stakes projects with discipline.
Why it matters: In mining and infrastructure, the cost of misalignment is high—delays, budget blowouts, and reactive decision-making erode value long before problems surface in reports. Tacmin.ai addresses this by embedding structure where it matters most: in the assumptions, logic, and workflows that underpin delivery. By linking pricing to performance, estimates to execution, and capital to control, DCM enables all project stakeholders to operate from a single source of truth. It’s how TacminMadini has consistently delivered results under pressure—and how clients now gain the discipline, foresight, and assurance needed to succeed in today’s capital-constrained, high-stakes environments.
