BOA Hydraulics is able to talk to Chad, the owner of Kalgoorlie Auto Electrics.

About Kalgoorlie Auto Electrics

The business is led by Chad Puleston our General Manager. Chad has a wealth of knowledge and experience in the mining and drilling industry. Chad is highly experienced in working on a various range of vehicles, machinery, and mining equipment.

Opportunity to Become a One-Stop-Shop

They also saw the opportunity to take BOA on and provide a service where we can go to the site and do everything at once. 

How are you going, my name is Graydon. I'm from Kalgoorlie Auto Electrics and Mechanical. We've got four employees. We've also got two Cruisers as well and the BOApod trailer. Our goal is to be the one-stop-shop for servicing them and minimising downtime. We have Auto Sparky, Mechanical, and also the new BOApod hose trailer.

We go out and do cylinders and pumps and that. And we've offered now the services of hosing, being able to minimise hydraulic downtime for the customer. Cost of getting someone else out there. The BOApod has given us an opportunity to do preventative maintenance. When we see a hose on its way out, we can change that hose, and get it sorted for the customer before it gives them any more downtime and causes them any more cost.

Use the BOAhub app to reorder. And that makes it easy for the guys in the pit & onsite just to scan the barcode and send it through.  

So the bonus to the BOApod trailer is the versatility of it being able to put it behind any of our vehicles and take it to site. It makes it easier for our clients as some of them are not based close to town. When we're out there, we can see hoses and all that to replace them or make up spare hoses instead of paying another company to come out fit them. The BOApod trailer is quite compact. It's got the cutter and the crimping tool as well and has all the fittings and hoses on board.
