Client Story

Client Story – Joyce B., Mother and Advocate

“Innovative, creative, adaptable, caring, fun, professional, reliable.  These are just some of the words I use to describe Erik’s approach to supporting people.  He is the best thing to have happened in my son’s life within the NDIS program.  They work together as a team – mates, really – to do meaningful, constructive and tailor-made every day or special activities at home and in the community. If you are searching for someone who will go that extra mile to make life better for you or someone you support, I thoroughly recommend that you have a chat with Erik.”

  • Case Study: Business Systems Overhaul & Operational Readiness

    Coe Industrial Solutions transformed from Coe’s Electrical Auto—a longstanding family-run B2C workshop—into a fully operational, compliance-ready B2B contractor supporting Tier-1 mining and infrastructure clients across northern South Australia.

    Business Systems Overhaul & Operational Readiness

    Client: Internal (Coe Auto Electrical)

    Location: Port Pirie & Roxby Downs, SA

    Dates: 2021 – 2024

    The Challenge

    Legacy systems inherited from the retail auto business were not suited to Tier 1 requirements. Compliance protocols were informal, invoicing was inconsistent, recruitment was ad hoc and the business relied heavily on its founder’s manual processes.

    Our Solution

    Under the new leadership, the company underwent a six-month transformation. The team implemented structured compliance protocols, digitised communications, introduced scalable recruitment and onboarding workflows and aligned all systems with Tier 1 operational standards. The business rebranded, restructured and redeployed its resources for B2B performance.

    The Outcome

    Coe Industrial emerged with a sharp focus on contractor readiness and enterprise service. Invoicing, workforce systems and compliance became efficient and audit-ready. While BHP was already a client, this strategic realignment deepened the relationship—positioning Coe Industrial Services as a more integrated, dependable and compliance-ready vender. The business launched new hire capabilities and established a permanent presence in Roxby Downs, solidifying its role as a trusted regional service provider.
