CASE STUDY

LYCOPODIUM AND

NRX PROJECT CLOUD





PROJECT BACKGROUNDLycopodium Asset Management were required to develop

BOMs with high quality information attached to the

assemblies and sub-assemblies to assist in the searching

and identification of items.

Lycopodium Asset Management had an existing in-house

developed tool for BOM building based on Microsoft Access,

however this tool would have required significant additional

enhancements prior to being used on this project. A

decision needed to be made as to whether the existing tool

would be enhanced, a completely new tool developed, or

whether to use a commercially available software platform.

An additional consideration was that this project required

the use of personnel from Lycopodium Asset Management’s

high value engineering centre in Manila to execute the

project, with resources in Lycopodium Asset Management’s

Perth offices overseeing the project, providing quality

assurance and liaising with the client.

WHY NRX?Lycopodium Asset Management chose NRX Project

Cloud as their platform for this project. As a commercial

software platform it removed the need for custom software

development and being deployed on the cloud it allowed

resources in Perth and Manila to gain easy access to

the same database. Lycopodium’s Asset Management’s

instance of NRX Project Cloud was deployed in Singapore

to give both offices high speed access.

NRX Project Cloud allowed Lycopodium Asset Management

to focus on the BOM building project and leave system

administration functions to the NRX team. With thesolution on the cloud, NRX was able to quickly react to any

issues in the system as they arose.

PROJECT EXECUTIONLycopodium Asset Management received the following

information from the client’s EPCM Contractors, along with

continuous updates to that data:

• Asset register which was loaded into the NRX Project

Cloud plant

• SAP Materials which are loaded into the NRX Project

Cloud enterprise and attached to the relevant plants.

• Maintainable Unit Profiles: The hierarchy of assemblies

and sub-assemblies for each maintainable unit

Drawings were reviewed to determine which materials needed

to be added to each assembly and sub-assembly and those

materials were added to the appropriate material BOM.

As the BOMs were completed they were exported from NRX

Project Cloud in the client’s SAP load spreadsheet template

for submission to the client’s master data team for upload

into SAP.

CURRENT PROJECTSWith the success of the BOM building project for the

capacity expansion project’s ship loaders behind them,

Lycopodium Asset Management have moved onto additional

expansion projects:

Primary Crushing Systems BOM Project

• Primary crushing circuits

Main Ore Processing Facility BOM Project

• Screening

• Crushers

• Stackers

• Train Loaders
