BSI, a subsidiary of PT Merdeka Copper Gold, says Hexagon’s OP Pro lifted fleet productivity at Tujuh Bukit within six months: truck productivity rose 11%, excavator productivity 17%, truck queue time fell 17%, and excavator hang time dropped 53%. Load-and-haul costs declined 14%, fuel ratio improved 9.5%, and tighter GPS guidance helped deliver more than 600 oz of additional gold recovery while cutting ore loss and dilution.

The site also reported strong system adoption, with more than 99% login compliance, 95% assignment compliance and 90.8% Optimiser usage. Merdeka is now extending the deployment to Pani under a five-year agreement, suggesting the company sees further operational upside from the technology rollout.
