Allocate
Optimise your fleet allocation in real-time, ensuring the right truck is at the right place at the right time to maximise production efficiency from pit to port.
Problem
Excessive queuing at loading points
Over-allocating trucks to a single loader leads to wasted time and fuel as trucks idle in queues , while other loaders sit waiting. The result? An imbalanced operation that drags down productivity.
Truck underutilisation
Many mines struggle to efficiently allocate trucks across multiple loading points with varying dump distances. Traditional dispatch systems demand costly hardware upgrades and rigid setups that can’t flex with your operation.
Instruction non-compliance
Even the smartest dispatch algorithms fall short when operators don’t follow instructions. With compliance rates of just 87–93% in most traditional systems, theoretical optimisation rarely delivers real-world results.
Solution
AVA streamlines fleet dispatch with an intuitive drag-and-drop console and a cost-effective, hardware-agnostic setup, no expensive systems or complicated vendor coordination. Operators get real-time in-cab task updates, while intelligent blending ensures consistent material quality from pit to stockpile.
Intuitive drag-and-drop dispatch console
Allocate’s intuitive drag-and-drop interface lets supervisors assign trucks to tasks with ease — cutting training time and streamlining workflow for control room operators.
Reconciliation of dispatch instructions
Every instruction sent to each cab is matched against the actual trip taken — enabling controlled change management and providing full visibility into compliance with the plan.
Schedule the rest of the shift
Real-time reallocation can create uncertainty within the production team — but every decision, its reasoning, and the plan for the rest of the shift are clearly communicated and visible to all.
Results
AVA Allocate delivers the trust and visibility that dispatchers, operators, and management can understand and support — finally achieving the long-promised results of optimal truck allocation algorithms.
Improved loader utilisation
By ensuring loaders always have the right number of trucks, you maximise the productivity of your most valuable assets, while keeping truck queuing time to a minimum.
Cross-functional use of equipment
Breaking down silos enables better control and prioritisation of trucks, material, and ancillary equipment , keeping your mine aligned to target.
Enhanced material quality control
Precise control over which trucks service specific loaders enables proper blending and consistent material quality at the crusher or plant — boosting downstream efficiency.
