Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/26/2015 -- ResearchMoz has recently added the "Maintenance and Aftermarket Preferences in Mining for Europe and the former Soviet Union, 2015" report to its vast database of research reports. This report provides a detailed analysis of customer preferences throughout the European and former Soviet Union mining sector, focusing on factors that influence preferences for maintenance and aftermarket services across different regions including the former Soviet Union, Western, Eastern and Souther Europe and Scandinavia. The analysis is based on Timetric's extensive survey of 100 mine managers and procurement managers.

Areas of analysis include:
Customer preferences for maintenance and aftermarket support structure. These include opting for either original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) or independent third parties as providers of three equipment parts categories: strategic parts, non-strategic parts and processing-related equipment.
After sales equipment support preferences across three options; 'work with me', 'do it for me'; and 'do it myself'.
Preferences for type of service contract, including maintenance only, operation and maintenance, and life cycle management.
In each case responses are analysed by mine type, company size, commodity and European region (Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Southern Europe, the former Soviet Union and Scandinavia).

Executive summary

Overall trends in the data revealed:

While OEMs dominate the supply of strategic parts with 60% choosing purely OEMs and 34% a mix of OEMs and third parties, third parties have a greater penetration of non-strategic parts. Availability of spare parts is a key weakness for OEMs, which provides third parties with an opportunity to gain further share unless the OEMs improve their supply infrastructure, logistics structure and performance.
After-sales equipment support preferences show over half (55%) of respondents want regular input from their manufacturer, 24% prefer to outsource support work, and 21% prefer to keep work in-house.
Service contract preference shows a direction for simpler structures with maintenance only (47%) favored ahead of operation and maintenance (30%), while life cycle management remains marginal across the region (18%).
Opportunities for life cycle management services are greatest for the largest companies, and within the former Soviet Union.

Scope

The report is based on responses from a survey of 100 senior managers at operating European and former Soviet Union mines, and provides detailed analysis of maintenance and aftermarket preferences. Survey respondents came from 23 different countries, including Sweden, Kazakhstan, Turkey, United Kingdom, Finland, Spain, Russia and the Ukraine. This included five different commodity groups and a range of surface and underground mining operations.
