We re-collect any of the scrap left over from the build and recycle that as well,” Darren says. Darren also believes that refining their technology is paramount to Aus Steel’s future success. Again, he says they are already on their way. They recently partnered with SYSPRO, a global Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) specialist, to develop a cloud-based ERP system to replace their manual systems, which were previously based on unlinked databases and Excel spreadsheets. SYSPRO’s ERP is now implemented in all three factories and across all of Aus Steel’s core business practices, including manufacturing, distribution, and finance. As a result, Aus Steel’s team can now more efficiently schedule production processes, they can provide more accurate costing information to clients, and they are able to respond faster to future changes and disruptions in the market through real-time information. Darren and his team have also been working diligently on their newly released product, AusPanel – a framework that is built on efficiency. AusPanel is a complete building system that includes Aus Steel wall panels, Aus Steel floor joist cassettes, as well as Aus Steel roof cassettes. With an aim to save time on site, encourage sustainable practises and continue to provide a quality service that is unique to Aus Steel’s clients whilst offering innovative products. As a company, Aus Steel offer pathways to a modern approach to the construction industry. In general, Darren concludes, they want to keep innovating, much like they always have. They have spent years perfecting their steel frame system, but they believe there is still a lot of room to evolve and improve the total build process. As they continue on their journey, their hope is that more residential builders will take notice and recognize the many benefits of working with steel. “We believe steel is the future of building, but acknowledge that change is confronting, can be costly, and often time-consuming,” he says. “We want to work with builders to alleviate these fears and help them embrace steel as the best solution for their next home build.” NOVEMBER 2024
