Ladies on site today 👷‍♀️

Today some of the ladies from our team had the opportunity to head out on site and get a closer look at the work being delivered by our crews.

Site visits like this are a great reminder of the scale, planning and teamwork that goes into every project — from the equipment and logistics through to the people making it happen on the ground.

The colder weather has arrived and so has the foggy mornings.

It's finally starting to look like winter here onsite in regional South Australia.

Can-Do Capability starts before the lift.

A great example of our team and fleet working together onsite with our 60t crane assisting in the assembly of our 400t crane, ready for the next stage of works...

Tradie of the Day 🛠️

A proud day for our team at the recent Sterlows Steel Solutions Tradies Day at the Port Augusta Racecourse, hosted by ATC Training Centre.

Congratulations to our crew member Ben, who was awarded Tradie of the Day.

Ben is a Heavy Diesel Mechanic and a valued part of our maintenance team, helping keep our trucks, cranes, light vehicles and trailers moving. From servicing and diagnostics to breakdown support, Ben plays an important role across the fleet, with a growing focus on crane maintenance and troubleshooting.

A big congratulations also to Ronan on his win — another local talent and a well deserved win!

Well done, Ben. A great achievement and a proud moment for MAX.

Look what rolled into our Port Augusta Depot today…

Freshly painted in MAX Blue, our Grove GMK6300L-1 is ready to make its mark.

Over the next few days, our team will be getting hands-on with training and familiarisation, building the confidence, knowledge and capability needed to operate this machine safely and efficiently.

Big gear. Skilled people. Can-Do-Capability in action.

Shoutout to Doolan's Heavy Haulage for transporting this beast 💪

World Day for Safety and Health at Work 👷‍♂️

Today is about recognising the importance of safe workplaces — across every job, every site, every team.

Recognised across Australia through Safe Work Australia, it’s a good reminder that safety isn’t just one thing — it’s how we plan, how we work, and how we look out for each other day to day.

Because it’s about the people behind the work.
