MINING audits twice a year and looks to remedy any shortfalls identified to ensure that the company is up to date with the latest industry and Australian standards .
“ Our whole Safety Management System is reviewed on an ongoing basis to make sure there aren ’ t any shortfalls ,” said Johnston . “ This has enabled us to attain Australian and ISO quality standards .”
Future Goals With a home office in Perth as well as other offices throughout Australia , and its joint ventures for international expansion in North America , Jetcrete is among the industry ’ s leaders in diversification .
Johnston said when he began Jetcrete North America in 2009 , it was one of the worst times to start a business . Despite this , Jetcrete was able to survive its expansion in the United States and Canada and add more business to its portfolio .
“ The mining industry goes in cycles ,” Johnston said . “ Obviously , it all comes down to supply and demand .”
Jetcrete is tied into several long-term contracts in Australia , and there are some major civil works and oil and gas projects looming that the company is considering for the future .
“ Business in Australia is about maintaining what you ’ ve got , and making the most of your opportunities when they come along ,” said Johnston .
