The International Standards Organization

ISO develops high quality voluntary International Standards which facilitate:

International exchange of goods and services,

Support sustainable and equitable economic growth,

Harmonization across jurisdictions and regulation

Promotion of innovation and lower cost developments

Protection of health, safety and the environment

Participation of all required stakeholders

Bridge to Formal Standards - ISO TC82 Mining

GMSG is not a formal standards organizationGMSG has official liaison status with ISO TC82 Supports application of existing standardsParticipate as a liaison for: priority, “seeding”, expert

engagement in the development of standards, bring mine operators

Assist and collaborate with national standard bodies

OBSERVATIONS – Issues and Opportunities ISO standards participation dominated by OEMs, Suppliers, Gov’t/Regulators, Academics

Insufficient mine operator presence

Mine operators need stronger engagement on surface mining equipment

TC82 focus is on legacy iron/structural/mechanical/electrical subject matter – not intelligence

Increase mining demand/need for operational intelligence, integration, automation, and technology;

Improve the whole mining process for operational excellence, not just equipment

Collision avoidance, operator situation awareness, onboard data architecture, autonomy, interoperability, tele-remote operations, operational integration, data architecture

Need an open innovative environment to benefit mining vs a siloed proprietary constrained environment

This is where we need supporting standards

Many independent, redundant, overlapping /conflicting Technical Committees, developments, standard bodies, regulators, industry organizations – TC251, IEEE SCC42

Critical need to ensure mining participation and leadership – especially mine operators

TC82 plan to establish autonomous mining and automation sub-committee

Regulator is, and will be, active – need to engage collaboratively - as an industry
