Difficulty sourcing electrical maintenance and projects labour is quite often a hurdle for site. When Aaron and Jake started their new business, it was recommended they explore the BHP Local Buying Program. Participating in the program has significantly benefited Boulder Electrical Services by providing a platform to showcase their work and connect with work opportunities with BHP. As word spreads on-site and within the community, they’ve experienced growth and expanded business opportunities.

BHP has been supportive of this start-up business and has enabled business growth. The BHP Local Buying Program offers smaller businesses a valuable entry point to supply to BHP. The portal is straightforward to navigate and at no cost to the supplier, which is so important for smaller businesses focused on minimising expenses.

“We’re thrilled to be part of the BHP team as electrical contractors, where every day brings new challenges and opportunities to contribute to cutting-edge projects that shape the future of industry. Collaborating with BHP, we bring our expertise to ensure seamless operations and innovative solutions, fostering a productive and rewarding partnership that drives success.”
