Caron Mining Solutions — Mine Maintenance Software
Track, Manage, and Control Mining Equipment and Assets
It takes a vast assortment of equipment to run a mining operation. Losses, unscheduled repairs, and missing maintenance parts cause costly delays. In conjunction with Caron Mining Solutions powered by Sage, we offer mine maintenance, asset tracking, and service management applications that successfully track each piece of equipment and the labour and parts associated with running, maintaining, and repairing them.
We’ve partnered with software developers who provide robust solutions for mining companies at all stages of the mining lifecycle. Technisoft is integrated seamlessly with Sage 300cloud, DIMO Maint provides a solution for Sage 300cloud and Sage X3, and AMT Asset Management provides complete asset lifecyle management for larger mining operations running Sage X3.
