How Our Partnership with Thiess Is Shaping Global Workforce Training

The foundation of every thriving business is a well-trained, efficient workforce, yet empowering employees on a global scale is no small feat. This is particularly true for industries like mining, construction, and resources, where compliance, safety, and skill gaps consistently present challenges.

Thiess, a leader in mining services, partnered with LAAMP to strengthen its workforce training across complex, high-risk environments. Leveraging LAAMP (Learning and Assessment Management Platform)—a dynamic and site-ready training platform—Thiess was able to streamline onboarding, improve compliance, and enhance workforce mobility.

Through this collaboration, Thiess gained access to practical, tailored solutions such as digital evidence capture, transferable skill passports, and offline functionality—each enabling their teams to learn, track, and respond more effectively across global operations.

This blog explores the practical impact of this partnership, demonstrating how Thiess has reshaped its workforce strategy by adopting LAAMP’s technology and people-centred approach.

Why Workforce Training Needs a New Approach

Traditional workforce training methods often fall short when it comes to addressing today’s business demands. Organisations with large, decentralised workforces face common obstacles, such as:

• High administrative costs and inefficiency

• Delays caused by outdated, paper-based processes

• Difficulty maintaining compliance across teams and projects

• Skills shortages and ageing workforces

• Poor visibility into workforce development

The reality is clear: businesses need training solutions that reduce these inefficiencies while empowering their teams to thrive. LAAMP, designed in consultation with enterprise leaders, tackles these issues head-on by merging technology with thoughtful, scalable learning designs.

How LAAMP Works

At its core, LAAMP simplifies workforce development. It delivers enterprise learning on a unified platform where teams are inducted, trained, assessed, and equipped with transferable, verified skills. By digitising training records and leveraging cutting-edge features like automation, real-time reporting, and immersive technologies such as AR and VR, LAAMP makes an often complex process adaptable to modern business needs.

The partnership with Thiess has turbocharged these capabilities. Thiess’s global reach and industry expertise have allowed LAAMP to expand its influence while fine-tuning the platform to meet the nuanced needs of high-risk industries.

Real-World Results for Thiess

Partnering with Thiess allowed us to see first-hand how LAAMP resolves persistent pain points in workforce training. The results thus far have been remarkable.

1. Reduced Training Costs

LAAMP digitised Thiess’s training processes, eliminating paper records and unnecessary in-person sessions. This transformation cut administrative and printing costs significantly. Additionally, employees can complete training remotely, saving the organisation travel and accommodation expenses.

2. Time Efficiency Improvements

By integrating automated workflows and e-learning modules, LAAMP reduced the time employees spent completing training by 65%. Over a year, Thiess achieved savings of 232,659 labour hours, allowing more productive allocation of resources.

3. Enhanced Compliance

Centralised recordkeeping ensured that all training data was accurate and accessible. This allowed Thiess to mitigate risks, particularly in worker compensation claims where proper documentation is critical.

4. Improved Engagement

Through real-time dashboards and features like AR-enabled safety scenarios, employees reported heightened engagement and retention in their training programs, which supported Thiess’s compliance and safety goals further.

5. Global Scalability

Thiess’s global operations provided the perfect testing ground for LAAMP’s scalability. The platform has demonstrated its ability to standardise training processes across multiple regions while catering to local compliance needs, cementing its position as a go-to enterprise learning solution.

The Broader Business Impact of LAAMP

The partnership goes far beyond Thiess. By addressing the systemic challenges that all enterprises face in workforce management, LAAMP provides a replicable model for success.

The mining industry heavily relies on precise safety compliance and operational protocols. LAAMP addresses this by offering real-time audit trails, on-demand access to certifications, and fatigue management insights.
