Intract Australia

Intract along with Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT) and Department for Energy and Mining, South Australia (DEM), had the privilege of attending the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Cultural Awareness Training session ahead of our upcoming demolition works at Mintabie. APY General Manager Richard King, Tania King, and APY Chairperson Bernard Singer delivered a highly informative and engaging session, providing all attendees with valuable insights into the history, current status, and culture of the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara lands and people. The training also covered essential protocols for working and travelling on APY lands, as well as commonly used Pitjantjatjara words, including their pronunciation and meanings in English. Intract has been engaged by Department for Infrastructure and Transport to decommission, clean up, and make safe the former Mintabie township. This project aims to return the area—located on APY land—to the APY community by removing dwellings, secondary buildings, abandoned vehicles, mining equipment, and other infrastructure. We appreciate the opportunity to undertake these important works and look forward to working closely with the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara community throughout the project.

We're proud to be working with ASC in Western Australia to deliver major works that strengthen our partnerships and create meaningful opportunities. Building strong relationships with industry partners allows us to not only enhances our capabilities but to also support the economic growth and empowerment for First Nations communities.

During the Christmas period, Intract have committed to supporting and giving back to local charities and organisations such as Lemongrass aboriginal. Lemongrass is a 20 bed residential facility which supports Aboriginal Men exiting prison on community based orders to be assisted in reintegrating to the community, setting themselves up to go home. The program supports these men to gain; employment, employment support, independent living skills, drug and alcohol counselling, financial counselling, mens yarning, mental health support, housing support, intervention programs and importantly cultural connection.    To honour this incredible work, John Briggs visited Lemongrass in Port Augusta, donating Christmas hams and plants to help establish their newly refurbished vegetable gardens. A special thank you to @Georgia Allen for your exceptional dedication to the Aboriginal Men supported by Lemongrass. Intract is proud to stand behind this vital program and applaud your continued efforts to make a meaningful impact.

Intract Australia is proud to announce the successful completion of the Inman Valley Road Project for the Department for Infrastructure and Transport. Located approximately 7.8km east of Yankalilla, the project site presented unique challenges, with a steep slope to the north and a grassy paddock to the south. The scope of work included the installation of a rock retaining wall, as well as stormwater and pavement repairs. We were pleased to collaborate with fellow Indigenous business, Zancott Recruitment Pty Ltd, to efficiently manage the busy traffic lane next to our narrow work zone, ensuring the project was completed safely and on time. A big thank you to the local road users and property owners for their support and positive engagement throughout the project. We also extend our gratitude to the Department for Infrastructure and Transport for the opportunity to contribute to these important road upgrades. We look forward to the next project!

We recently celebrated the start of our Wami Kata Aged Care Facility project with a Sod Turning Ceremony, where community members came together to share stories about the rich history of the region and the importance of this project to Davenport, Port Augusta, and beyond. The Intract team are proud to build and be part of such a meaningful initiative.   We also held a successful community engagement session. It was inspiring to see so many community members eager to contribute.   Together, we’re building a future that honours the past and supports the community. 

Thank you Tamara Thomas and Tactic - Connecting Regional Industry for the opportunity to attend and present Intract and our upcoming major works in the region at this fantastic event! The format and venue were spot-on, creating the perfect environment for engaging conversations with innovative and passionate local businesses and suppliers. We’re already looking forward to the next one!

Reflecting on Remembrance Day   At Intract, we acknowledge the significance of this day and reflect on its profound meaning to our community. For many Indigenous Australians, today is a day to pause, remember, and pay homage to the sacrifices made by our veterans and those who have served. Their bravery and dedication have paved the way for the freedoms we cherish today. Today, we take this time to reflect on their contributions and reaffirm our ongoing commitment to comradery and inclusion within our community. We honour their legacy by continuing to support and uplift each other.

We recently had the pleasure of welcoming the Security and Estate Group to our Adelaide premises, celebrating our recent project achievements and Indigenous Business Month.   Intract Australia is proud to have been awarded several Head Contracts with the Department of Defence over the last ten months, including Cultana Training Area Redevelopment - Phase 2.   We look forward to sharing updates as we progress on the delivery of works for these significant projects.
