The
above-
ground
challenge
Extractives firms operate in politically sensitive, high-stakes environments - and the greatestthreats to delivery and growth play out above ground. Delays, permitting disruptions, andstakeholder backlash cost mining and energy firms billions in overrun, write-down, and lostmomentum each year. Political friction, social license and information overload complicatestrategic and new energy planning. The common failure point: lack of structured visibilityand management of the stakeholders and signals shaping business outcomes.
What's at stake

80% of cost-and-schedule challenges arelinked to non-technical community and social license factors

Mining permitting cycles now take on average 17.8 years vs 6 years in the 90s

And the unrecognised cost: Up to 35-50% of project lead and executive time is routinely diverted to conflict management

Client Success Stories
Monitoring the external landscape around mining closures
91
Sites monitored globally
The closures team was responsible for managing the decommissioning of end-of-life assets. This entailed a multi-year journey to ensure positive outcomes for local communities, employees, and investors, while also maintaining ESG compliance.

The team was previously reliant on in-country knowledge, ad hoc RSS feeds and Excel trackers. They needed a more systematic way of monitoring key influencers and managing engagement.

TSC rolled out a dedicated workspace over 3 regions. The workspaces monitors 91 closure sites for co-related policy developments focussing on ~100 regulators impacting the closure cost. Early signal detection, trend analysis and proactive policy engagement enabled the team to manage closure cost and risk, better.

An SRM system forcontractor risk andengagement
$61 billion
Asset value safeguarded
A major operator's projects and commercial team was responsible for relationship management, engagement, and media tracking of various contractors working on their offshore assets. This crucial to ensuring contractors' health and activities posed no risk to assets and timelines.

The teams would follow multiple news sources across different websites, use disconnected Excel sheets to capture engagements, and spend days preparing for executive engagements.

TSC rolled out a dedicated system for contractor intelligence, acting as a single source of truth across 60+ contractors. It acts as a meetings repository, consolidates global coverage into a single feed, offers weekly targeted updates on contractor activity and health, and enables rapid briefing.

Prospecting and marketintelligence support innew energy BD

Opportunities engaged
An active new energy BD team needed a private and secure way to capture strategic engagements and report on them to management.Previously, the team used Excel to capture meetings, but the lists quickly became outdated. There was also no easy way of seeing if cross-regional teams had touched the same prospects.

TSC rolled out a private and secure SRM system for knowledge sharing strategic meetings across regions by centralising all engagement in a single view. Automatic meeting notifications are sent to the email inboxes of team members, so everyone is always in the loop. The system is also used to drive continuous situational awareness and identify opportunities across markets and stakeholders via regular, customisable media briefs, and platform usage.
