Since 1885, Coates has supported the industries that build, power, connect and defend Australia, delivering safe, reliable equipment and specialist expertise critical to national capability and operational readiness, particularly in environments with variable tempo and temporary capability requirements.

With Australia’s largest hire fleet and an extensive national branch network, supported by regional logistics hubs and a dedicated transport fleet, Coates enables rapid mobilisation and scalable access to equipment – without the cost, risk and lifecycle burden of ownership.

This integrated approach supports Defence and its delivery partners with a turnkey solution spanning equipment, logistics, compliance and on-the-ground expertise across the full project lifecycle, from early works and construction through sustainment, upgrades and contingency response.

Coates has supplied the Capability Acquisition and Sustainment Group (CASG) since 2022 and works with major primes, including Thales and Ventia, to support complex project and operational environments across bases, shipyards, airfields, exercises and sustainment programs.
