| Year Established: | 2000 |
| Core Business: | J.Smith & Sons Pty Ltd provides diagnostic and forensic transport engineering services through its affiliated company Smith Resources International Pty Ltd. |
| Services Provided: | The transport task analysis of many major mining and agricultural projects has not attracted the attention it deserves. If it's not a pipeline or conveyor system project engineers consider it someone else's problem. This results in a grab bag of old trucking costs and assumptions that give operational managers many sleepless nights trying to justify maintenance costs that have gone through the roof. Fleet engineers know through experience that an incorrectly specified engine, transmission and trailer combination will send a fleet operator to the wall. Smith Resources International Pty Ltd has the connections and experience to provide optimal solutions to any road transport task on public and private road systems.
