This MCP server provides a suite of tools for comparative economic analysis in mining procurement. It allows AI agents to evaluate the financial and operational trade-offs between using a third-party contractor and operating with an owner-operator fleet. Using analyze_operational_costs, agents can determine total costs for either model. The calculate_break_even tool identifies the production volume where both models are equal, while evaluate_risk_and_flexibility provides qualitative assessments of risk and scale needs. Finally, generate_comparison_report consolidates all data into a final recommendation.

4 tools expose this connector's capabilities to your AI agent.

calculate_break_even

Identifies the production volume where both models become economically equal

evaluate_risk_and_flexibility

Provides a qualitative assessment of the trade-offs between the two models

generate_comparison_report

Consolidates all previous analyses into a final recommendation

analyze_operational_costs

Determines the total cost for a single model (contractor or owner-operator) based on production volume

Compare the costs for a contractor model with 50,000 units of production, 10,000 equipment cost, and 5 operating cost per unit, with a 15% contractor margin.

The total cost for the contractor model at 50,000 units is 32,500.

What is the break-even volume if owner-operator fixed cost is 50,000, variable cost is 10, and contractor fixed cost is 10,000 with a variable cost of 15?

The break-even volume is 8,000 units.

I have low risk tolerance and need high scale flexibility. Which model should I choose?

Based on your low risk tolerance and high flexibility needs, the Contractor model is recommended.

You can use the `analyze_operational_costs` tool by providing the model type, production volume, equipment costs, and operating costs per unit.
