Fleet Production and Cost Analysis Programme a.k.a FPC is one of the most popular production/cost counting programme used by not only in Caterpillar world and mining but also by big construction contractors. FPC has two main goals basicly: I. Helping to choose loader and truck type and detect its amount before project, II. To be determined of fleet cost and product.

Production

To provide supervision of costs and production during project. FPC programme is a typical computer programme based on data entry principle. Thus detailed data about project will be needed to operate programme. (data needed are arranged below) The more real-like data, the more accurate results. Whereas gathering right data before project is hard, it is very important in working on these subjects, project owner's showing what depends on costs and being aware of factors which should be in tracking and controlling during project. Biblioteka komponentov trace mode. Ongoing projects, it contributes to user for representing projections belonging to the future with the data taken from field that time passed until that day. Project inputs needed for FPC: 1- Annual, monthly or shift net working hours 2- Hardware density (loose and relevant) and hardware type 3-Amount of hardware which will be excavated (ton or relevant cubic meter) 4- Haul roads details (Roads should be divided into segments according to the change of factors below.) • Road length • Percental slope of roads • Rolling resistance • Road width.
