Alliance announced a contract extension of the air charter services to BHP Nickel West for a further five years. This service, which has been operational since November 2006, was Alliance’s initial service in Western Australia and has become the cornerstone for Alliance developing a large presence in Western Australia.
Lee Schofield, Alliance’s CEO, said that, “As our first contract in Western Australia we appreciate the support that BHP Nickel West afforded us back in 2006 and we continue to provide them with services that are the best on-time performance in the industry.”
“Alliance has worked with BHP Nickel West as a partner in the provision of these services accommodating changes during the resources downturn and now we are experiencing growth of up to 17 charters per week as economic conditions continue to improve. As with our other resources customers throughout Australia, we are seeing growth in the number of charters as the current demand for resources is maintained and production increases.”
Mr Schofield further stated, “The Perth base commenced operations in 2006 to service our first customer, BHP Nickel West, and Alliance now undertakes in excess of 7,500 sectors per annum in Western Australia.”
