Resumo
Mining fleet management is fundamental to the transportation infrastructure in a mining nowadays. Several factors influence the success of a new system adoption, such as changes in the project design, operational maturity, direct leadership engagement, and senior management participation. To start with, the main objective of this study is to present the results obtained with the implementation of the Fleet Management System in a mining company located in the Southeast region of Brazil. In this study, the chronology of the implementation of the technology was presented, comparing the operational factors and environmental impacts to the operation results. As a result, there was a 23% increase in the transportation fleet performance, which led to a monthly potential reduction in the emission of 136 tons of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere because of the reduction of the transportation fleet required for ore movement. Furthermore, these gains may be enhanced over the years, expanding its possibilities with the use of new techniques and research.
