Stop waiting for the tier one to call.
The tier one contractors hold the multi year master agreements, and the specialist hears about a shutdown when the phone rings the week before. We watch shutdown calendars, capex announcements, contract extensions and maintenance hiring every day, and pitch on your behalf to the maintenance superintendent, the package manager and the site owner, months before the scope is let.
The scopes are announced. The specialists just never see them.
A $145 million round of maintenance and shutdown extensions across Olympic Dam, Gladstone and the Pilbara was announced publicly this quarter. Every one of those scopes is subcontracted, and the specialists who win them wrote to the package manager first.
1. Overflow, at their rates, on their timing
The tier one calls when it is short. Our job is to make you the specialist they plan around, and to open the plant level relationship the tier one would rather you did not have.
2. Shutdowns, transmission, data centres
Multi year maintenance extensions at the major sites, the transmission build through regional NSW, and a $150 billion data centre pipeline to 2030. All of it needs fabrication, mechanical, electrical and safety scopes.
3. Three to six months out
Shutdowns are scheduled a year ahead and resourced a quarter ahead. Capex projects appoint a contractor months before mobilisation. That is when we put your business in front of the person resourcing it.
4. Extensions, capex, hiring, 1 July
Contract extension announcements, capex approvals and site expansions, job ads for maintenance planners and shutdown coordinators, and the 1 July 2026 workers compensation reforms.
Is this you?
Specialists who take scopes from tier one contractors and site owners in mining, processing, energy and manufacturing. If most of this reads like your business, this page is written for you. If it does not, the market size check says so in two minutes.
Owner run, a workshop plus crews, where the owner or general manager prices the scope and holds the site relationships.
The package manager inside the tier one, the maintenance superintendent inside the owner, or the WHS manager who just received the premium notice.
Scopes from $20,000 shutdown packages to multi year maintenance terms, resourced a quarter ahead.
Australia wide, including Gladstone, Mackay, the Hunter, the Illawarra and the transmission corridors through regional NSW.
Labour hire without a trade, businesses already inside a tier one master agreement they are happy with, and one off equipment sellers.

Nothing hidden, in your name.
Every site, package manager and superintendent we approach lives in a shared tracker with the extension or expansion beside it, the exact message sent, and where it sits.
The businesses that keep the plants running rarely have anyone finding the next scope.
Fabrication shops, maintenance crews, drilling contractors and safety RTOs keep Australia’s plants, mines and grid running. Almost none of them have a person whose job is the next scope. We pitch on behalf of your business to help you win it.
