Tropicana Project – Steel Group

“KTrans must be complimented on the total presentation and execution by all of your personnel. The Ops team have been very easy to deal with, all drivers are very knowledgeable on how to work with cranes and load crews and then restrain the loads with the equipment presentation top shelf. Congratulations to you for building the business that way.’

HMI Technologies Pty Ltd

When HMI Technologies was looking to expand its ANZ business of supplying large electronic Freeway signs into Perth, the need for a strong logistics partner was our first priority.

KTrans came highly recommended and from what was an initial 3-month relationship around the recently opened Kwinana Freeway Upgrade project, has blossomed into an ongoing relationship where KTrans now supply all our ongoing cartage, warehousing, and logistic support needs from the wharf to the client site.

KTrans has even provided workshop facilities for our East Coast based engineers and local client engineers to complete testing and localisation activities prior to installation. This evolution of our partnership has come about through a number of factors but primarily it has been through the ‘can do’ attitude from KTrans Operation Management where we have often had some demanding requirements but working collaboratively, we have always managed to find a way to meet our needs. When you are building a business remotely on the other side of the country you need people who you can trust and will go the extra mile when it is needed – KTrans did that. Another aspect we value is the ease of doing business.

We are not transport/logistics specialists but the processing of our shipments into Freemantle, the cartage around Perth – often requiring special trucks (some of our signs are over 8 metres long and 2 metres high), and making our product available to meet tight deadlines, were tasks often made to happen by a phone call or a prompt from KTrans staff who wanted to understand what we were planning to do next.  This is invaluable and we have been extremely pleased with the level of service we have received from KTrans.

Roxby Downs — BHP

Hi Wade,

On behalf of BHP I would like to thank you and the Staff at KTrans for the safe and well organised delivery of our pipe from Steelmains in Perth.

The job must have been a logistical nightmare with trucks positioned all over the place and having the remote area working were there’s no communication, but to have Dave Bryant communicating delivery arrival times and rescheduling to make the 6 trailers a day work and dealing with the unexpected breakdowns was appreciated. Having worked with Dave on previous projects it was a pleasure to work with Dave again. The team was set up well with Garry and Colin on rotating swings being based at Lyndhurst and being your point of contact for truck deliveries certainly paid off, Garry and Colin would escort the trucks in the morning and help unstrap and unload all the trailers before they were last to leave in the evening, My stringing team much appreciated the help carried out by Garry and Colin to get the job done safely.

Thanks once again.

Regards,

Billy Johnston

HP Billiton Testimonial

BHP Billiton have had the pleasure of receiving deliveries of pipe from KTrans a professional logistic company that has gone out & beyond to supply our pipe to a very remote part of South Australia through some harsh conditions.

The team at KTrans Wade Jolly, Sam Keene and Dave Bryant have been superb to work with and a big thanks to Dave for completing this logistical nightmare without hick ups all the way from Perth.

KTrans drivers have done an outstanding job of delivering 3350 MSCL pipes from Melbourne within the time frame and through the inclement weather we received.

Thanks to all at KTrans and look forward to the next stage.

Michael Gausden from Select Plant Hire

As part of our focus on improving safety and reaching our goal of Mission Zero we have started to look at areas where we are working well, draw out the positives and share them with the rest of our business.

My email to you is to let you know that today we did a positive investigation on the recent back load of containers from Port Hedland. The task went very well and due to a few of the following points;

  • Communication
  • The loading in Port Hedland
  • The transportation back to Perth
  • The unload and storage in Perth

The whole process was in line with our company policies and safety systems not only on our side by KTrans has contributed greatly to the adherence of them. For example;

  • Communications between KTrans and Select Plant Hire
  • Competitive pricing
  • Documentation
  • Reliable drivers who are inducted to our sites and understand the our requirements
  • The relationship between Select and K-Trans. This is very strong and is key to the smooth operations we both conduct
  • Professionalism

I thought I would pass this feedback onto you as its rightly deserved and also very much appreciated by Select Plant Hire. Thank you for your assistance, compliance and ongoing commitment to our relationship.
