Capability Statement Design · Specialist Capability

Capability statements that win tier-1 procurement panel positions.

For Australian engineering firms, drilling contractors, mining services, and specialist trades pursuing tier-1 procurement panel positions with BHP, Rio Tinto, FMG, Thiess and the major head-contractors. Evidence-led, project-led, certification-led, pages 1-4 doing all the work because tier-1 procurement officers spend ninety seconds inside before deciding to read further.

The eight-section structure we build

What gets on each page, and why.

Page 1 · Cover + summary

Hero project image · two-line capability summary · contact strip

No "values statement". The hero project image and the two-line capability summary do the work. Phone number, ABN and capability category visible without scrolling.

Page 2 · Capability matrix

What we do, where we do it, what scale

Service lines × geographic capability × project-value-band capability, in a single matrix. The procurement officer's first filter pass.

Page 3 · Tier-1 reference projects

Named projects, named clients, named outcomes

Three to five tier-1 reference projects, named where permitted. Project value, completion date, scope summary, methodology indicator. Evidence over claims.

Page 4 · Safety + accreditation

ISO 45001 · ICAM · NSCA · safety record transparency

Safety credentials surfaced clearly, no buried-in-the-back. Tier-1 mining houses screen on safety before screening on price, page 4 is the second-pass filter.

Page 5 · Equipment register

Rig fleet, plant register, capability ratings

For drilling and mining services, fleet inventory with generation, capability, and deployment readiness. The procurement officer's spec-table check.

Page 6 · Methodology

How you actually run a project

JKMRC-aligned methodology disclosure where applicable, project-management framework, quality assurance discipline, reporting cadence. The "are these people grown-ups" check.

Page 7 · Senior leadership

Named principals · operational leadership

Bios for the senior principals, fellowships, professional memberships, project-experience storytelling. Linked to LinkedIn for the procurement officer who wants to verify.

Page 8 · Contact + next step

Specific contact for tier-1 enquiries

Named procurement-facing senior leader, direct phone, direct email. No "info@" addresses at this stage. The procurement officer rings the named person.

Engagement shape
