Abstract

Modular laboratories are becoming increasingly popular in mining operations due to their flexibility, mobility and cost-effectiveness. However, selecting a suitable modular laboratory can be a challenging task as many factors need to be considered throughout the project life cycle. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the design phase of a temporary research facility, as well as consideration of management and organization to identify the optimal design solution. The authors discuss various project management methodologies such as lean manufacturing and quality management that can help optimize processes and improve efficiency. Key factors such as testing requirements, infrastructure availability, mobility, durability, and environmental considerations are examined. In addition, the article explores the benefits of temporary buildings to permanent buildings in a mining environment. Finally, the authors provide recommendations for selecting a modular laboratory that will provide efficiencies on the shop floor.
