Project First Response
“When mining projects stall, we respond—fast, fair, and in control.”
TacminMadini’s Project First Response is a structured service designed to support business improvement and recover distressed mining projects. Whether the challenge is systemic inefficiency, commercial disputes, stalled progress, or underperforming contractors, this service provides the clarity, structure, and momentum needed to move forward. Delivered through four focused categories—Business Improvement Audits, Claims & Commercial Alignment, Resource & Realignment Flow, and Recovery Planning & Deployment—Project First Response enables mining owners, contractors, and investors to strengthen governance, resolve disputes, and restore delivery confidence before further damage occurs.

Business Improvement Audits
Independent insight to strengthen performance and governance
TacminMadini supports owners, boards, and investors with structured business improvement audits. These audits benchmark contractor and owner-mining performance, governance practices, cost structures, and operational efficiency against industry standards. The findings provide independent validation of current practices, highlight risks, and set out clear recommendations for sustainable improvement across projects and portfolios.
Key outcomes:
- Independent validation of business and operational practices
- Identification of cost, schedule, and governance risks
- Data-driven recommendations for improvement
- Stronger investor and board confidence in project outcomes
Claims & Commercial Alignment
Claims & Commercial Alignment
Restoring clarity and preventing escalation
Commercial disputes often stall progress and erode confidence. TacminMadini collaborates with mine owners and contractors to resolve claims, clarify entitlements, and realign expectations. Using first principles cost validation and shadow bidding, we test the merit of each claim, separate entitlement from exposure, and provide transparent, defensible analysis. This reduces tension, avoids escalation, and restores delivery flow.
Key outcomes:
- Independent validation of claims and exposures
- Faster resolution of disputes through transparent analysis
- Reduced legal exposure and stronger contract alignment
- Restored commercial clarity and continuity
Resource & Realignment Flow
Resource & Realignment Flow
Optimising existing inputs to recover momentum
Delays and underperformance don’t always require added resources. TacminMadini works on-site to identify inefficiencies across crews, equipment, and workflows, mapping where capacity is being lost and closing coordination gaps. By aligning schedules and work fronts, we optimise the use of current assets and personnel—accelerating recovery without disruption.
Key outcomes:
- Productivity uplift using current workforce and assets
- Reduced idle time, rework, and inefficiencies
- Improved coordination across owner and contractor teams
- Accelerated progress toward recovery targets
Recovery Planning & Deployment
Recovery Planning & Deployment
Stabilising execution and regaining control
When projects require structured turnaround, TacminMadini provides a fast-tracked, diagnostic approach to recovery. We identify root causes of delay, assess performance gaps, and establish a short-term framework tailored to site conditions and available resources. Through reinforced work fronts, coordinated recovery tasks, and improved communication, we restore stability, visibility, and confidence in delivery.
Key outcomes:
- Clear diagnosis of performance gaps
- Structured recovery plan with measurable actions
- Reduced risk of further slippage or rework
- Stabilised execution environment and renewed stakeholder confidence
