| 59 listening to feedback from contractors RURAL SERVICES » JWE Ltd Debbie Fisher and Karen Avery in the JWE reception area. Another benefit the technology provides to con- tractors is regarding Health & Safety as it monitors and documents how an operator is using the equip- ment they are driving. “Too often you hear about Work Safe coming down really hard on the owner of a contracting business because of an accident that is not their fault. This is where the cameras come into play.” JWE Ltd developed one of the first hopper controls for the fixed wing aircraft sector back in the early 1990’s. When Government funding became available Ballance Agri-Nutrients approached JWE and asked us to develop a system that would prove quantities of fertiliser being spread over a specific geography.

For the roading industry we’re working on some new innovations right now.” John says he especially values the pool of knowl- edge his team has accrued over the years. “As the team grows so your resource grows.
