This is a massive growth compared to a total of 28 introductory meetings with Aboriginal businesses last year and demonstrates the growth in capacity and capability of Aboriginal businesses across WA.

These meetings allow TPAE to learn more about the businesses and to share information and advice on how Aboriginal businesses can register and work with the Transport Portfolio. The Aboriginal businesses which TPAE has connected with this year provided insight to the wide range of products and services they can deliver including recruitment, labour hire, commercial cleaning, ICT, civil construction materials, survey and mapping, gas supply, plant and equipment hire, PPE, power engineering, formwork, concreting, cultural awareness, civil engineering, asphalt, and crane hire.
