FROM SELF-ASSESSMENTS TO EXTERNAL AUDITS
Elevate your GISTM Conformance Journey ...
WITH DCP ...
The DotConnect Conformance Platform (DCP) digitizes our P3S™ Methodology and helps mining companies address corporate, site, and facility nuances along the conformance journey while reducing their reliance on inefficient shared spreadsheets, disjointed file-sharing solutions, and static PowerPoint presentations.
Organize Your Self-Assessments
Easy to score. Easy to review.
Toggle between Principle tiles to "double-click" into each requirement and conformance protocol criterion. Easily identify self-assessment status and progress.
MANAGE INSTITUTIONAL KNOWLEDGE
Easy to find. Easy to apply.
Manage regularly-updated reports, policies, and documentation for use as conformance evidence. Distinguish between corporate evidence (applicable to all sites) and site evidence (applicable to TSFs at a given site). Review status of evidence completion. Apply evidence to specific conformance protocol criterion to streamline the self-assessment process.
Manage Action Items
Easy to track. Easy to update.
Create and track activities needed to fully complete a conformance evidence and/or to bring a requirement to full-conformance. Assign owners and due dates for follow-up clarity. Easily update status along the way.
TELL THE CONFORMANCE STORY
Easy to review. Easy to highlight.
Use the various the reports and dashboards to tell the conformance story to internal leadership AND external auditors - from providing an overview of the corporate and site evidence used and showcasing the multidisciplinary evidence contributors, to highlighting the self-assessment requirement scores.
TRANSFORM HOW YOU SHOW UP FOR GISTM CONFORMANCE AUDITS
Benefits of the platform
Boosted Productivity
Work smarter, not harder. With a single click, DCP allows Responsible Tailings Facility Engineers (RTFEs) to replicate their hard work on one TSF's self-assessment for the remaining TSFs at the same site.
Centralized Evidence Library
Turn the hunt for corporate and site evidence into an exciting adventure - DCP helps you identify what you might need for each GISTM requirement and helps you keep track of the multidisciplinary team's efforts towards completion of evidence development.
Reliable System of Record
People come and go, emails vanish into the abyss, and let's face it, keeping track of documentation is no easy feat—especially at multi-decade sites. DCP can serve as the one-source-of-truth for all self-assessments at each site, positioning your company strongly for recurring assessment cycles. No more scrambling for lost files or outdated info.
Efficient Reviews & Signoffs
Capture internal feedback and Accountable Executive signoffs like a pro! With stage gates for each self-assessment, internal leaders are able to enter their comments and Accountable Executives can formally record their sign-off on the contents of the self-assessment for each TSF.
Elevated Auditor Experience
When it's showtime, DCP rolls out the red carpet for your 3rd Party Auditor. They get their own special interface to complete their conformance verification. Whether they prefer to provide feedback to requirements using the interface or provide their report to upload later, DCP ensures a smooth and seamless verification process.
Conformance Data Exports
We get it - spreadsheets can be hard to completely eliminate. That's why DCP allows users to download the self-assessment data in a format that allows the use of more familiar visualization capabilities of tools like MS Excel. This feature can come in handy as you prepare for future self-assessments.
The only software solution ...
- built upon successful GISTM conformance demonstration efforts within a complex and global tailings organization
- that addresses user pain points across stakeholders - RTFEs, EORs, Internal Reviewers, and Third-Party Auditors
- with the data architecture to help demonstrate conformance to other assurance frameworks in the future (e.g., Consolidated Mining Standard (CMS), ICMM Performance Expectations, Towards Sustainable Mining, etc.)
