MSTS

What MSTS does

MSTS (Mandurah Safety and Training Services Pty Ltd) is a privately held Australian Registered Training Organisation (RTO Code 50343) operating two training centres in Mandurah and Port Hedland, Western Australia. The company delivers nationally recognised safety training primarily to mining and construction professionals, with secondary exposure to the oil and gas sector, offering over 30 courses covering high-risk work licences (forklift, dogging, rigging at basic/intermediate/advanced levels, scaffolding at basic/intermediate/advanced levels, slewing mobile crane, boom-type EWP), construction induction (white card), working at heights, confined space entry, gas testing, first aid and CPR, LV panel rescue, fire warden, manual handling, permit-to-work, and civil construction plant operations (excavator, dozer, skid steer, front end loader, roller, backhoe, telehandler).

The business operates a hybrid delivery model: scheduled public courses at the two physical training centres, private and group bookings delivered on-site at customer locations, and a small set of online courses for white card induction. Trainers and assessors each hold at least four high-risk work licences plus Certificate IV in Training and Assessment, and leadership claims 16+ years of safety management and training experience alongside 25+ years of construction and mine maintenance experience.

Revenue is generated through three streams: per-course training fees (one-off course enrolment and licence application fees such as the $104 WorkSafe High Risk Work Licence fee), hardware sales of industrial safety and load handling equipment through an e-commerce storefront (alloy chains, barriers and tapes, height safety equipment, round slings and shackles), and professional safety management services including scaffold auditing, safety audits, method statements, and height safety solution development. Pricing is unit-based with a 50% deposit required at booking; the customer base is fragmented across individual workers, contractors, and enterprise mining/construction employers in the Perth metropolitan and Pilbara regions, with no named anchor enterprise customers disclosed in source material.

Regional players

• ASTRA Group Services: Western Australia-based industrial services company offering training alongside its core maintenance and shutdown services. Comparable in WA mining customer base and bundled training/service offering, though its primary business is industrial services rather than dedicated RTO delivery.
• Vostro Group: Western Australia-based industrial services company providing workforce solutions including training, safety services, and equipment hire to the mining sector. Comparable WA mining customer base and adjacent safety/services portfolio, though training is one of several service lines rather than the core.
• Energy Skills Queensland: Queensland-based industry-led training organisation focused on the resources and energy sector, delivering safety and high-risk work licence training to mining and construction workers. Comparable curriculum and customer base, but operates in a different regional market.

Direct peers

• Pinnacle Safety and Training: Australian safety training provider delivering high-risk work licence courses, confined space, working at heights, and first aid training nationally. Competes for the same mining/construction licence-driven customer segment as MSTS.
• Site Skills Training: Major Australian RTO with a strong mining, oil & gas, and construction safety training focus across multiple states. Offers an overlapping suite of high-risk work licence courses, confined space, working at heights, and earthmoving equipment operator training, making it the closest national-scale comparable to MSTS.
• ISV International Skills & Training: Australian RTO delivering vocational and safety training including high-risk work licences, construction induction (white card), and earthmoving operations. Comparable product breadth and target customer (mining/construction professionals) make it a direct peer.

Broad incumbents

• TAFE Western Australia: Public vocational education provider in WA delivering a broad curriculum including construction induction, safety, and trade courses. Significant overlap on white card and general safety courses, though TAFE is much broader and state-funded rather than a focused private RTO.
