The pit loop
Six roles, six rhythms.
- Operator (haul truck)Pre-shift
- →Scan QR on the cab → log-hours screen pre-fills the asset.
- →Pre-trip checklist (PASS / FAIL / NA per item) — FAIL items raise yellow flags.
- →Confirm operator certifications still valid (MSHA Part 46 / Part 48 surface mining cert).
- Operator (haul truck)During shift
- →Each load logged as a HaulCycle: load location, dump location, tonnage, material, distance.
- →Cycle times feed productivity reports without anyone counting trips on a tally sheet.
- Blast techBlast event
- →Open Blast Logs → New blast.
- →Capture: occurred-at, location, charge type (ANFO / emulsion / watergel), kg quantity, conducted-by, permit reference.
- →Vibration PPV + airblast dB if monitored.
- MechanicDaily queue review
- →Open /work-orders → status / priority sort.
- →Cost-spike anomaly flags surface separately from PM flags — high-wear haul trucks are the obvious offenders.
- →Tool tracking shows which torque wrenches are out with which tech across the pit.
- Safety officerIncident
- →Report incident: kind (INJURY / NEAR_MISS / PROPERTY_DAMAGE / ENVIRONMENTAL), severity, MSHA-recordable flag, corrective actions.
- →OSHA Form 300 export at year-end straight from /api/export/osha300.
- Mine managerWeekly + monthly
- →Pull cost-per-hour leaderboard for the haul-truck class.
- →Decide rebuild / retire on units above class median.
- →Review blast-log cadence + tonnage; cross-reference against permits.
Mining-specific support
What we built for this market.
- ✓BlastLog model: occurredAt, location, chargeType, chargeQuantityKg, conductedBy, permit reference, vibration PPV, airblast dB.
- ✓HaulCycle model: load + dump GPS, material, tonnage, distance, cycle duration. Drives productivity dashboards without trip counters.
- ✓OperatorCertification supports MSHA Part 46 (surface) + MSHA Part 48 (underground) as first-class enum values; expiry banners 60 days out.
- ✓Incident module's `oshaRecordable` flag drives the Form 300 export. MSHA-side reporting (Form 7000-1) is on the roadmap.
- ✓Tool tracking handles the field-side torque wrenches, breaker bars, hammer drills that walk off without scan-out discipline.
- ✓One flat $199/month organization subscription on the standard plan — a 40-ton haul truck and a portable lighting tower both count, with no per-asset surprise as you commission new equipment. (Per-asset metering is available as an opt-in for legacy contracts that need it.)
Honest scope
What we don't replace.
- MSHA Form 7000-1 quarterly employment + production report — we capture the source data (cycle counts, production tonnage); you file the form.
- Mine permitting + reclamation plans — entirely out of scope.
- Scale-house integration / ticket reconciliation — on the roadmap via the public API. Today, customers run the scale-house separately and import via CSV.
