Why acQuire Managed Services? (Exploration results in real time)

The solution is designed for base and precious metal juniors.

No matter where your key personnel are located in the world, with acQuire Managed Services, your exploration results are available to them on the same day as they are recorded.

 acQuire Managed Services is designed by geologists for geologists and it allows you to:

• Review the geology as it is observed and adjust the drilling plan accordingly.
• Import assay results and generate significant intercepts instantly.
• Monitor drill rig and lab performance and manage contracts efficiently.
• Forget about IT infrastructure and eliminate the wages cost of specialist IT staff.

acQuire Managed Services makes recording geoscientific observations fast, simple and reliable. It streamlines your project administration, both in the field and in the office, and gets your key results to the market, faster.

Avoid big up-front capital expenditure on hardware, software and implementation. acQuire Managed Services’ “throughput” pricing ties the price you pay to the meters you drill, making it especially cost effective for smaller projects.

acQuire Managed Services completely eliminates the need for IT staff and Geological database specialists to be assigned/hired for your campaign, significantly reducing your wages costs.

With acQuire Managed Services, you can get on with the job from the day you hit the ground. You can focus on logging the core while acQuire Managed Services gets the data to the resource model and the samples to the laboratory.

No matter how short your mobilisation time, no matter how remote your location, acQuire Managed Services is ready to go when you are. acQuire Managed Services equipment arrives in the field in easy-to-stack ruggedised shipping cases ready for simple “plug and play” assembly. The hardware is designed to be used in the harshest of conditions. Our Motion F5v tablets, used for data entry, are of military standard; they are tough enough for the day-to-day of a core shed, with screens designed for use in direct sunlight. The servers and satellite equipment work out of the box and ensure your data gets back to the Resource Geologist the same day.

acQuire Managed Services replaces conventional pen-and-paper methods with direct data entry and bar code tagging, which significantly increase productivity.

An acQuire Geological Information Management (GIM) specialist works with you to configure the geological workflows to your specific project requirements and provides training to your team. The satellite link enables us to provide your field team with live support, ensuring that an expert is always on hand. If you have staff rotations during the project, we ensure that new team members are properly inducted into the use of acQuire Managed Services.

acQuire Managed Services provides data you can trust. Underpinned by the acQuire database, acQuire Managed Services gives you the highest levels of data integrity, validation, verification and data management.

• Infrastructure, which ensures that the data is where you need it, when you need it
• acQuire Data Models, which guarantee consistency across projects
• Remote management by acQuire experts, who keep it running perfectly
• Online support system, which allows technical issues to be addressed quickly by our technical specialists

acQuire Managed Services makes it possible to optimise your exploration drilling program as it happens.

It gets the geological results to the campaign planning team and Exploration Manager the day the data is collected. So, the decision on whether or where to drill the next hole can be based on real geology not inferred geology.
