CAPABILITY STATEMENT 2

A Reliable Provider

Longfield Services Pty Ltd (Longfield) are

specialists in civil and mechanical installations

and underground utility infrastructure across

Western Australia. We have been the first choice

for utility providers, the commercial construction

sector, the mining and resource sector, local

government and private industry. Our success

has come through the professional application

of systematic rigour and quality work to ensure

positive and predictable outcomes for our

clients. Longfield and our strategic delivery

partners are committed to achieving first-class

outcomes for our clients through the proactive

management of risk, a strong focus on health,

safety and environmental management, and the

deployment of our experienced and qualified

workforce.

One of the catalysts for our success is the drive

and experience of the company directors. They

recognised early that the utilities and mining

sectors were not being serviced by quality-

focused companies; and poor health, safety and

environmental performance, inadequate project

management and a lack of quality assurance

was impacting the effective delivery of positive

outcomes for clients in the industry.

Mission

To be the first choice contractor for underground utilities and infrastructure based on our ongoing commitment to quality, safety and performance.


“It is the strong belief of Longfield services that we have an incumbent obligation to operate safely and without causing harm to people, property or the environment. As an organisation and as individuals, we must take all necessary measures to ensure the health and safety of our employees, contractors, stakeholders, the general public and the environment.”

Health, Safety and Environment Our Commitment to Zero Harm

Longfield Services has proudly developed and

nurtured a positive HSE culture that underpins

everything we do. We demand and achieve the

highest level of Health, Safety and Environmental

performance from all of our employee’s,

contractors and subcontractors. Put simply we

have no room in our company for shortcuts,

recklessness or complacency. It is this culture that

has kept and continues to keep our employee’s,

customers and the general public safe wherever

and whenever we work.

Supporting and reinforcing this culture is our HSE

system comprising policies, procedures, forms

and templates that are continuously improved

and adapted.

verifications on a regular basis to ensure full

compliance with our system and, importantly,

identify areas for improvement.
