Mines were most dissatisfied with cost related factors, namely ‘Maintenance and service costs’ and ‘Lowest (equipment) cost’. Overall the major suppliers such as Caterpillar, Komatsu and Atlas Copco perform well in terms of customer satisfaction, with Caterpillar particularly dominant across each of the 16 factors examined.
