Curt Morgan

Curt Morgan is responsible for new product development, long-term planning and strategic partnering. He brings with him experience as a mining engineer with extensive knowledge in information and systems integration. As a miner, he held the position of General Superintendent the year the mine won the prestigious “Sentinels of Safety” award. He was the mine’s Engineering Manager when it set the yearly record for US coal production. As a research scientist at Exxon’s Research Production Company, he developed some of the first mine simulation programs that integrated geologic modeling with mine production logistics. Following his work in the mining industry, Morgan went on to assist the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency in integrating logistics systems with advanced weapons simulations. He led projects integrating information for nuclear sites, nuclear submarine design and air-war gaming. As the emergent technologies were released for commercialization, Morgan returned to the mining industry and formed what is now Dimension Technology Solutions, Inc.

Morgan created DTS to develop a holistic and practical approach to integration that supports both operations and business needs. He is considered an expert in information modeling and his information model for large metals mines, including mining, leaching, mills, smelter, rod plants and electro-refining, is one of the most comprehensive in the world.

He has been awarded three Small Business Innovative Research grants from the Department of Energy for his work on the use of neural networks in signal processing. Other accomplishments include publishing papers on information integration and chairing conference sessions on artificial intelligence. His prior field experience in mining and construction, combined with his experience with advanced weapon systems, has convinced him that most complex problems are best solved with proven technologies applied with a liberal dose of common sense. Morgan holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Colorado.
