Mining and resources earthworks, priced to protect your position.

RIG is the bolt-on pre-contracts, commercial and delivery team for regional civil contractors. On mine and resources work, from surface earthworks to tailings storage facility remediation and plant wet-hire, we build the price you can stand behind and hold that position through the contract. The schedule of rates is where the job is won or lost, and it is where we are strongest.

What RIG is

The bolt-on pre-contracts, project management and business growth team for regional civil contractors. Senior commercial and delivery capability, without carrying it on payroll.

What we do in this sector

We price and support resources civil: surface earthworks on remote mines, tailings storage facility remediation, and plant wet-hire and haulage into the resources sector.

What you get

A schedule of rates defensible line by line, risk named and priced before you sign, and margin protected once you are on site.

  • $0MMine surface earthworks in delivery
  • 0+Resources tenders: earthworks, TSF, wet-hire
  • 0+Tenders submitted across the book
  • $0M+Civil delivery managed by the principal

Resources civil sits alongside Queensland's mining and resources sector. The figures above are RIG's own book of work.

The problem

On resources work, the price is the position.

  • The schedule of rates is the contract. A rate built on optimistic productivity is a loss locked in before the first cut, with no methodology narrative to hide behind.

  • Plant productivity on hard rock and in remote conditions is nothing like the textbook figures, and a price built on cycle times that never happen bleeds margin every shift.

  • Subcontract and supply pricing arrives late and inconsistent, and reconciling it under tender timeframes is where errors and exposure creep in.

  • Without a pricing-conditions and clarifications schedule, you carry risk that belonged to the principal, and find out at the first claim.

The payoff

A price that holds, and risk where it belongs.

  • A schedule of rates built from first principles, defensible line by line.
  • Plant and haulage productivity validated against real cycle times, not textbook figures.
  • Subcontract pricing reconciled cleanly inside the tender timeframe.
  • A clarifications schedule that protects your position before you sign.
