• Uncover capability, performance improvement and value engineering opportunities for short-, medium- and long-term time frames across the production value chains of BHP’s assets, particularly in mining operations.
• Work closely with operations and stakeholders to ensure that the relevant business problems are identified, defined and structured - including context, success measures, and potential challenges.
• Define purpose and scope, and plan the correct modelling approach, level of detail, and data requirements to ensure dynamic models are fit-for-purpose and a valid representation of the actual systems or processes.
• Build, validate, document and review System Dynamics models in AnyLogic simulation software to simulate the asset production value chain with a particular focus on mine operations, trucking and rail networks, product loading and dispatch.
• Work collaboratively with site SMEs and the data scientists in the Value Engineering team – interrogating and analysing large data sources to gain insights, understand operational and performance issues and produce input data for the dynamic models.
• Define simulation cases, process model results and produce visualisations to support findings and solutions; communicate results, insights and recommendations to guide actions and decision making.
• Support and collaborate with Value Engineering leads, principals and specialists and asset project teams by providing technical direction, expertise and review in areas such as problem solving, dynamic simulation and related data requirements; ensuring technical execution is consistent with best practice and standards
