Mining services · Admin that caps growth
AI for Australian
mining services SMEs
Western Australian mining services firms do not need another generic chatbot page. SMEC AI's published mining story is DrilLedger: Perth founder Guy Kennedy building a platform of 17 AI agents to lift the admin load that caps growth in mining services.
The work that keeps the industry moving is still paper-heavy
Kennedy did not start with a plan to build mining software. He started with a problem worth solving in WA's largest industry, then used SMEC AI Pathfinder to validate each step. For mining services SMEs that are not building a product, the same admin load is why Adopt consults exist.
Two different paths in the same sector
If you run a mining services business
Adopt support can map which admin jobs are worth automating before you buy a platform. Eligible SMEs get a free Information Line call and a 45-minute consult.
If you are building mining software
AI Pathfinder is the eight-week founder program Kennedy used. This page does not change that program. It only points at the published case.
Agents, not a dashboard for its own sake
DrilLedger's published shape is a set of AI agents aimed at the admin that stops mining services firms from growing, not a generic reporting layer.
Australian proof
You could validate at every step of the way. It was a great way to find out that you're on the right track and then use your time in the most efficient way.
DrilLedger. Perth founder Guy Kennedy is building DrilLedger, a platform of 17 AI agents, after SMEC AI Pathfinder.
