Caterpillar Fleet Production and Cost Analysis Software

Fleet Production & Cost Analysis (FPC) is a PC software tool designed to estimate the productivity, cost, and time required for a wide variety of earth moving or other material handling operation’s moving material from one location to another over one or more courses. FPC takes into account the following factors: Site speed limits; Haul road condition - Gradients/Rolling resistance/distances; Waiting times; Machine - Availability/Bucket Fill Factor/Cycle times; Site – Material Density; Required Volumes; Operator Efficiency. From this information, the software provides an accurate prediction of current and future production capabilities. The FPC program and evaluation allows productivity and efficiency improvements to be made without compromise to Health & Safety. Safe travel speeds, braking, payload and operator technique are all assessed to ensure a realistic production rate can be achi
