Local Indigenous business secures contract in Ord project

Posted 07 September 2010

Local East Kimberley business D&H Contracting has secured a contract working on the Ord River Expansion Project Stage Two.

The contract with the Moonamang Joint Venture is for the supply of two articulated dump trucks with operators until the wet season comes later in 2010.

The Moonamang Joint Venture is a partnership between Leighton Contractors and Indigenous Business Australia to build 19km of irrigation channel, a 13km road extension and
irrigation control structures.

D&H began operations three years ago when Dallas Purdie took the opportunity to pursue a contract running water carts on the Team Savannah project, working on the Great Northern Highway improvements.
