DRA Global Part 4: Navigating the Perfect Mining Storm With Expert Advisory & IPD Execution #386
Mining investment is accelerating as demand for critical minerals grows, but delivering major mining projects remains challenging. Labor shortages, permitting complexity, supply constraints, and rising project costs can create significant risks for companies working to bring new operations online.
In this Mining NOW episode, hosted by Gus Minor and filmed at CIM CONNECT 2026, DRA Global leaders Pierre Julien, Vikram Jayaraman, and Sehaj Anand discuss how mining companies can address some of the biggest challenges affecting project development and execution.
A major focus of the conversation is Integrated Project Delivery (IPD), a collaborative approach designed to bring owners, contractors, engineers, suppliers, and other stakeholders together earlier in the project lifecycle. Rather than operating through disconnected vendor relationships, IPD emphasizes shared accountability, coordinated decision-making, and deploying the right expertise where it is needed most.
The DRA Global team also discusses the company's expanded advisory capabilities and how these services support junior mining companies, established asset owners, and financiers throughout the project lifecycle. From early-stage development and project de-risking to engineering, execution, and commissioning, the goal is to improve coordination and help projects move forward with greater predictability.
Watch the full episode to hear how DRA Global is approaching the next generation of mining project delivery and helping companies navigate the challenges of building complex mining operations.
