At Perenti, our equipment refurbishment and supply businesses collaborate closely with key partners to deliver solutions that maximise safety, improve efficiency and create lasting value for our clients and communities. From mining fleet and heavy equipment to specialist mine-spec vehicles, our integrated services provide clients with access to reliable, compliant and cost-effective solutions, tailored to their operational needs.
Tailored mining supply and ground support solutions
A standout example of this collaborative approach is found at Supply Direct, our Johannesburg-based logistics and procurement business. Although not a traditional vehicle dealership, Supply Direct has become the largest supplier of mine-ready customised 79 Series Toyota Landcruisers in the Southern African region.
This achievement reflects the team’s ability to align global mining supply chains with the specific safety and compliance requirements of the mining sector. Supply Direct’s team have perfected the upstream approvals process with major mining houses, streamlining procurement while saving clients significant time and effort. Each vehicle is custom-built to mine specifications.
By managing the entire procurement and compliance process end-to-end, Supply Direct makes it easier and more efficient for mining companies to source fully certified, mine-ready solutions.
Building community partnerships with BTP
In FY25, our mining equipment business BTP deepened its commitment to community partnerships by forming a strategic alliance with Ochre Australia, an Indigenous majority-owned business based in Queensland’s Mackay region. Ochre provides services across the resources, civil and renewable energy sectors, with a strong focus on local employment, training and land rehabilitation.
The partnership between BTP and Ochre Australia represents a shared vision for sustainable, inclusive growth. Together, we are leveraging complementary strengths to create value in three key areas:
- Employment pathways: Ochre’s strong focus on creating opportunities for Indigenous workers aligns with BTP’s ongoing commitment to training and apprenticeship programs, helping to develop the next generation of skilled people in mining services.
- Capability growth: BTP’s access to well-equipped workshops and technical expertise enhances Ochre’s delivery capacity, while supporting the transfer of knowledge and skills to local communities.
- Commercial expansion: By combining Ochre’s regional presence and networks with BTP’s national reputation, the alliance opens new opportunities for equipment rental, refurbishment and value-added services.
Our collaborative relationships extend beyond business efficiency to deliver social, cultural and economic benefits – a true reflection of our people-first approach.
Driving efficiency through collaboration
Our refurbishment and supply capability extends across the full equipment lifecycle. By building strong partnerships with our clients, suppliers and service partners, we ensure our clients benefit from:
- Safe production through compliant, mine-ready equipment
- Operational efficiency through reduced downtime and optimised machine performance
- Continuous improvement driven by innovation and data-led insights
- Sustainability outcomes supported by extending the lifespan of critical assets and lowering environmental impact
This collaborative approach allows us to deliver customisable, scalable solutions -whether that means refurbishing a single machine, providing an entire fleet, or supplying custom vehicles for complex mining operations.
A partner for the future
From Johannesburg to Queensland and from Accra to Perth, Perenti’s equipment and supply businesses are redefining what it means to be a trusted partner in mining services. By combining global procurement networks with local knowledge, by investing in partnerships that build capability and by working hand-in-hand with external specialists, we deliver more than equipment – we deliver confidence, compliance and long-term value. As we continue to strengthen collaborative relationships across the industry, Perenti remains committed to safe production, operational excellence and sustainability – ensuring that our clients and communities benefit today and well into the future.
