Western Australia.
ARC11 provides remote-controlled vegetation management for WA councils managing steep reserves, road batters, drainage corridors, and firebreak requirements — where conventional manned plant introduces WHS risk, asset damage exposure, or defensibility questions.
When contractor
selection must
be defensible.
WA councils operate in an environment where the decision to engage a contractor — and the method they use — can be scrutinised after the fact. ARC11 is structured to support that scrutiny.
We're engaged by local governments for vegetation management on steep reserves, road batters, and access-constrained sites where conventional manned plant introduces unacceptable risk — and where the contractor selection decision needs to hold up to Worksafe review, audit, or community complaint.
"Our objective is not to promise zero risk, but to apply a method that can be justified if decisions are later reviewed."
- WHS-aligned method statements — risk controls documented for every engagement
- $20M public liability insurance — certificates available for procurement files
- Pre-qualification documentation — SWMS, method statements, insurance docs for panel assessment
- Defensible contractor selection — suitable for approved contractor lists
- Transparent scope — we'll tell you if we're not the right fit
- Structured reporting — records suitable for handover and audit
Steep road batters and council verges where rollover risk makes conventional mowing contractors difficult to safely justify. Remote-controlled operation, full documentation for the procurement file.
Stormwater and irrigation drainage corridors combining soft ground, steep batters, and proximity to infrastructure. 2.4 psi ground pressure works where heavier plant cannot safely operate.
Firebreak construction on steep or post-burn terrain — one of the highest-risk vegetation activities councils undertake. Documentation aligned with local government firebreak order requirements.
