en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Mining Industry Suppliers Association (Aprimin) held a "Competitive Contracts" seminar, focusing on legal, labor, and tax risks in mining contracts, as well as standardized procurement practices. The event was organized by its Procurement and Contracts Committee and sponsored by member companies Mitta, Transportes Bello, and Finning. Juan Pablo Allende, Chief of Staff of the Undersecretariat of Mining, attended and presented the government's three core mining policy directions: promoting investment and legal certainty, regulatory modernization, and strengthening mining institutions. He stated that these measures will drive employment among suppliers, thereby impacting Chile's economy and people's livelihoods.
During the seminar, Oliver Ortiz from Deloitte and Juan Pablo Suffiotti from Echeverría Izquierdo analyzed legal and economic risk matrices and crime prevention models based on the company's compliance case. Félix Contreras from Moly-Cop, along with Mauricio Castro and Claudia Castillo from Siemens Energy, analyzed human capital management and occupational health and safety risks. Sergio Hernández from Omni Logistics and Ricardo Garib, Chairman of the Board of Weir Minerals, then explored tax burdens, operational resilience, and tax sustainability in large contracts from a strategic perspective. In the closing session, Patricio Galaz, President of Aprimin's Procurement and Contracts Committee, and General Manager Paula Frigerio jointly called for the industry to standardize best procurement practices, making contracts a tool to maximize outcomes and reduce uncertainty, rather than merely serving as legal documents.
