To Whom It May Concern,
During my time at Glencore Mangoola Coal “Start up” phase and later on in full mining production I utilised the Aaron Goadsby led team at Pit Patrol to help create the integrated logistic solution for the Mangoola site
At the time there were a number of logistical constraints that were placed on the Mangoola site that included no trucks over 8 ton GVM without and escort, no travel on the main road leading into Mangoola in the school bus hours time, a signed off permitting system for each individual delivery a minimum 24 hours intended delivery to site.
Aaron and his team in conjunction with Mangoola Coal were able to understand and comply with these constraints on every occasion and together we came up with a freight consolidation model to service the Mangoola site whereby suppliers would deliver freight to the Pit Patrol Depot. Pit Patrol would then store, manifest and deliver the now consolidated freight in one single delivery per day. this negated the multiple delivery infringements (unapproved deliveries or GVM violation deliveries) that were incurring from other National freight carriers before the engagement of Pit Patrol.
Pit Patrol have built up a solid reputation that is flexible and customer focused in the Hunter Valley and beyond and i have no trouble recommending the service that they provide
Yours Sincerely,
Tom Marshall
Supply and Logistics Superintendant
