What TIAD Enterprises does

TIAD Enterprises is a Pilbara-based, majority Yinhawangka-owned multidisciplinary services company delivering earthworks, civil construction, environmental remediation, heritage surveys, workforce solutions, plant cleanup, conveyor belt repair, and material logistics to the Western Australian mining sector. Founded circa 2009, the company operates from East Perth, WA, with approximately 135 personnel deployed across field services and administration, and is led by Managing Director Marlon Cooke, a Yinhawangka Traditional Owner.

The company's service portfolio is anchored in bulk earthworks and infrastructure development for mine sites, supported by specialist capabilities in polyurea-coated conveyor belt and launder repair, plant and under-belt cleanup, and Indigenous heritage delineation. Revenue is generated through project-based, quote-driven contracts with enterprise customers; multi-year service agreements with Tier-1 miners such as Rio Tinto and Fortescue Metals Group anchor the book, alongside relationships with Worley, Calibre, and the Shire of Ashburton. A flagship engagement involves leading rehabilitation of 100+ hectares of former mine waste at Rio Tinto's Paraburdoo operations, combining environmental restoration with Indigenous employment outcomes.

Operationally, TIAD is certified to ISO45001, ISO14001, and ISO9001, and in April 2025 opened the Mirnumia ("house of learning") training centre in Paraburdoo to build a culturally safe pipeline of Yinhawangka and local Indigenous workers for mining and adjacent industries. The company markets primarily through its website and corporate LinkedIn/Facebook pages, relying on direct enterprise field sales rather than digital channels to win contracts in the Pilbara region.
