Metso said the new Performance Solutions unit is "dedicated to delivering and sustaining performance improvements and measurable business results for the mining industry".

The unit will combine products and services from across Metso's portfolio to create solutions for its customers' individual production and efficiency objectives.

"Performance Solutions are based on in-depth engineering studies and data analysis, which we utilise to identify our customers' improvement opportunities," said Mikko Keto, president of Metso's Minerals Services and Pumps business areas.

"Agreed enhancements are then implemented at the customer site and sustained long-term, through continuous monitoring and proactive services."

According to Metso, Performance Solutions builds on its Metso Life Cycle Services offering and is going one step further. The company is now focusing on achieving and sustaining agreed-upon improvements, like increased throughput or energy efficiency, for its customers.

"We will offer our customers more options for sustained performance optimisation and deepen our partnership by taking a more active role in providing them business outcomes, not just equipment or services," Keto added.
