About Us
Our goal is to make it easier for mining companies to achieve a transparent understanding of their cost performance, develop a cost-conscious culture and create a single source of truth that helps senior leadership make better decisions, faster.
Mining is all we do. We are team of experienced mine accountants and software professionals who have spent the last two decades providing cost improvement focused solutions to a wide range of mining organisations.
Our all-in-one budgeting, forecasting and reporting platform, purpose-built for the mining industry empowers all cost owners to understand and manage their costs and enables the finance team to easily support the operational users whilst simplifying all aspects of stakeholder financial reporting.
Our Story
Ramesys Global had it’s origins in the post recessionary times of the late 1990’s / early 2000’s with the sole purpose of creating smarter ways for marginal mining operations to stay in business. Traditional financial accounting options didn’t cut it – they highlighted the problem but gave little guidance to means to improve the situation.
So we turned our focus to the people who generate the costs, the operations teams. We established processes and tools to help these teams better understand the cost impacts of their day-to-day operational decisions. We built clever software that allowed them to get critical cost performance information quickly and in easy-to-understand formats. We helped to establish business processes that would challenge cost owners to want to not only deliver sound operational outcomes, but to deliver these more cost effectively.
In doing so, we helped to transform the traditional finance department focus from the mindset of owning the organisational costs, to that of working collaboratively with the operational teams to analyse and discover improvement opportunities.
The outcome for the finance teams has been shorter budgeting cycles, quicker month end turnaround, greatly reduced effort in month end reporting and variance analysis, less errors and greater confidence in reported numbers. A win-win for the whole organisation.
Today our tools have got smarter, but our focus is still the same – we want to help all our clients to achieve continuously better cost outcomes. To us this is a journey that begins with smart software and continues for the life of your mining business with an ongoing “continuous improvement” mindset and methodology.
