A contractor can look compliant on paper and still impact your turnaround's critical path.
Before you award contractor work, I screen your shortlisted tenderers for the industrial-relations and employee-relations risk that stops jobs. You send me the returned tender material. Within three business days per contractor you get a one-page risk assessment written to drop straight into your evaluation record, with a clear result of Pass, Pass with recommendations, or Fail and refer.
Scope a screenWhat it catches
- Wrong or expired industrial instruments, and awards named without a classification.
- Unlicensed labour hire in states that require a licence.
- Hidden subcontract chains the declaration does not admit.
- Crews the contractor cannot actually attract, employ and mobilise.
- Same job, same pay cost surprises on a host enterprise agreement.
What lands on your desk
One page per contractor. The findings and the result first, each gap carrying a recommendation, and an evidence appendix behind them showing what was checked and against which source. It is written to sit in your evaluation record as it is, not to be reworked.
Who it is for
The teams that own turnaround and shutdown work in mining, construction and manufacturing. Procurement, contracts, and the project and IR people who wear the consequence when a tick on a returnable turns into a problem on site.
Why me
Twenty-five years of industrial and employee relations practice across mining, construction and manufacturing. I act for the owner side only, never the tenderers I screen. Independent and conflict-checked for every engagement, so the read is yours alone.
Engagement
Fixed fee per contractor, from $1,200. Three business days per contractor from complete intake. A 30-minute walkthrough call is included. If an assessment contains a material error it is corrected at no cost.
Scope a screen
Send me your shortlist and the scope. I will spend twenty minutes on it and tell you which one or two I would look hardest at, and why. That first read is free.
