Be Curious Award
Challenging long lead times and high costs, the team in Botswana pioneered Africa’s first locally built Integrated Tool Carrier for underground mining in Botswana.
They researched safety codes, sourced global components, and managed the build to meet customer deadlines. Their openness to feedback ensured continuous improvement, while hands-on leadership built new skills within the team. Delivery lead times fell from nine months to eight weeks, giving customers a six-month advantage. Costs were reduced by 32%, and immediate follow-on orders secured the future of the product.
This innovation positions Babcock as a leader in mining solutions and curiosity-driven progress.
