RPMGlobal (RPM) has officially unveiled XERAS Cloud, a major milestone in the evolution of its flagship financial modelling solution, during its African Connect Live event in Johannesburg, South Africa. The launch introduced the mining industry to a fully hosted, cloud-native version of XERAS, engineered to meet the evolving needs of modern mining operations.
XERAS Cloud preserves the trusted core of the original XERAS platform while delivering the speed, intelligence, and collaboration that today’s cloud technologies enable. This release represents a significant leap forward, offering mining professionals a more dynamic and responsive tool without sacrificing the reliability and familiarity they’ve come to depend on.
“XERAS has long been the industry standard in financial modelling for mining,” said CEO Richard Mathews, who was present at the event to mark the occasion. “With XERAS Cloud, we’ve built on more than three decades of deep industry expertise and paired it with the latest cloud technologies to deliver a faster, smarter, and more collaborative solution.” The platform delivers enhanced performance, a modernised user experience, and new collaborative capabilities, all within a fully hosted SaaS model.
A refreshed interface introduces a modern, intuitive user experience, with real-time data visualisation, streamlined navigation, and new dashboards that make financial insights more accessible and actionable.
Among its most impactful features is real-time collaboration with live data updates. Teams across departments or global locations can now work on the same financial model simultaneously, eliminating version control challenges and accelerating financial workflows. This ensures every user is working from the most accurate, current version.
Performance has been significantly enhanced, with improvements in calculation speed and system responsiveness enabling the platform to handle even the most complex financial models seamlessly. Its scalable architecture supports organisations as they grow in size and complexity, with enterprise-grade security and real-time monitoring ensuring full compliance and data protection.
Built on Microsoft Azure, XERAS Cloud eliminates the need for local servers and manual updates. Automatic deployment of new features, improvements, and security patches reduces IT effort while ensuring the platform is always up-to-date and available when needed.
To further ease adoption and integration, XERAS Cloud includes robust support for Excel imports and seamless connections to key planning systems such as MinePlanner, AMT, and ERPs such as SAP. This makes transitioning from legacy spreadsheets effortless and promotes smooth data flow across all facets of the business.
XERAS Cloud represents the next generation of financial modelling for the mining industry, built to support professionals throughout the organisation – from individual mine sites to corporate headquarters – within a secure, scalable, and high-performing environment. By modernising planning, enhancing collaboration, and driving profitability, XERAS Cloud redefines what mining operations can achieve through smarter financial management.
