Importance of Research & Development

IMS is actively and continuously pursuing safety design initiatives surrounding mine maintenance and current shutdown installation decommissioning techniques. The very essence of safety is the driving force behind all IMS innovations.

To date, IMS has successfully implemented such innovative rollouts throughout Rio Tinto maintenance operations. This has showcased our holistic approach to solution development ensuring maintenance techniques on site are safe, efficient and user-friendly.

IMS welcomes all high-risk maintenance task issues raised that require R&D solutions to mitigate personal risk assessment scenarios.
