Aftermarket Parts' Vital Role in Mining

In this Mining Episode filmed in Perth, Western Australia, viewers will have the opportunity to hear from Geographe's CEO Sam Hyder about the importance of aftermarkets and spare parts in the mining industry. During the video, Sam Hyder shares how Geographe applies Formula 1-style incremental gains and the moneyball approach to their business, ensuring they get the most value out of everything they have. At Geographe, we also prioritise the value of people and their safety, which has become a standard in our long-term business strategies. The discussion also includes a case study where we created a special tool to solve a client's problem.

By focusing on the end-user, we were able to come up with an efficient solution that was refreshing for heavy industry and mining. Our leadership approach is inclusive and team-focused. Sam clarifies the vision of the company and how we find the right talents to achieve it. Our team meets every fortnight to review everything in the business, from senior to mid-level team members. The industry outlook for the previous and next five years is also discussed, where we doubled our business through the pandemic by not cutting corners and focusing on being as good or better than the OEM.
