Western Australia's homegrown success story Ertech is riding an unprecedented wave of growth, securing a record-breaking $450 million in new contracts while strategically positioning itself for major defence infrastructure work across the nation.
The Perth-based civil contractor has delivered its most successful financial year to date, with revenue surging to new heights and their project pipeline overflowing with diverse opportunities from the mining sector to critical public infrastructure.
Defence Sector Becomes Strategic Priority
With an impressive track record of delivering complex civil projects, Ertech is now setting its sights on Australia's booming defence sector. The company has strategically positioned itself to compete for significant defence infrastructure contracts, leveraging their expertise in remote locations and sensitive environments.
"Our capability to deliver quality outcomes in challenging conditions makes us ideally suited for defence work," explained Ertech's leadership team. "We're already engaged in preliminary discussions and are confident our Western Australian roots give us a unique advantage in understanding Australia's strategic needs."
Record Growth Fueled by Diverse Portfolio
Ertech's remarkable success stems from a carefully balanced project portfolio that spans multiple sectors:
- Mining & Resources: Continuing strong performance in Western Australia's thriving resources sector
- Government Infrastructure: Major public works and civil development projects
- Environmental Projects: Specialist work in sensitive and remote locations
- Emergency Response: Rapid deployment capabilities for critical infrastructure repair
The company's national expansion continues to gain momentum, with established operations now delivering projects across multiple states and territories.
Workforce Growth & Local Investment
This record performance has translated into significant job creation, with Ertech's workforce expanding to over 600 employees nationwide. The company maintains its commitment to employing local talent and investing in Australian communities where they operate.
"Our people are the foundation of our success," management emphasised. "We're proud to be creating high-quality jobs and developing skills that will serve Australia's infrastructure needs for decades to come."
With a robust order book and strategic positioning in the defence sector, Ertech appears poised for continued growth, representing a bright spot in Australia's construction and infrastructure landscape.
