Avetta enables Pica Electrical to establish a structured, end-to-end safety system, maintain continuous compliance and confidently secure major opportunities.
With guided support and streamlines processes, the business can respond quickly to compliance requirements and focus on growth.
Building a structured approach to safety and compliance
Founded in 2017, Pica Electrical is an electrical contractor delivering services across utilities, infrastructure projects in Sydney.
Before adopting Avetta, the business relied on a mix of internal documentation and external safety resources. While these tools provided access to safety information, they lacked the visibility and structure needed to keep pace with evolving compliance requirements.
As a result, key areas such as document review processes and ongoing compliance monitoring lacked consistency. Some documentation, such as safety data around lost work hours or injury time, wasn’t regularly updated or tracked, making it difficult to maintain a clear, real time view of compliance status.
Meeting contractor requirements and unlocking new opportunities
The turning point came when utility provider required Pica Electrical to join Avetta as part of its contractor compliance requirements. By becoming compliant on the Avetta platform, Pica Electrical was able to secure a significant contract with Ausgrid providing work across multiple sites and creating a strong pipeline of ongoing work.
Beyond meeting immediate requirements, this shift has expanded the company’s ability to compete in larger, more complex projects. With a recognised compliance status, Pica Electrical can now operate in markets that were previously out of reach.
Creating a single, reliable safety system
One of the biggest impacts of Avetta has been the transition from fragmented processes to a structured, end-to-end safety system.
Instead of relying on static documentation, Pica Electrical now has a dynamic framework that tracks compliance continuously. When documentation is due to fall out of date, it is flagged, allowing it to be updated quickly before the deadline so nothing slips through the cracks.
This shift has given the team confidence that they are consistently meeting the requirements for the work they undertake. They now have clear visibility into what’s compliant, what needs attention, and how to stay ahead of upcoming compliance deadlines.
Accelerating onboarding and reducing complexity
Pica Electrical enlisted Vetify – Avetta’s expedited compliance support – to manage the volume of safety and compliance requirements needed to meet Ausgrid’s standards. Guided support and structured workflows from their dedicated compliance specialist helped them navigate the process more efficiently.
With access to resources and expert guidance, the team was able to help Pica meet client‑specific requirements and move through compliance requirements more quickly than expected.
Once in place, the platform has simplified ongoing compliance management with alerts to highlight exactly what needs attention, allowing the team to act quickly and maintain compliance with minimal disruption.
Enabling growth through confidence and credibility
Today, Avetta plays a central role in how Pica Electrical manages safety and positions itself for growth. With a structured system in place, the business can confidently demonstrate compliance to clients and pursue new opportunities. The platform not only supports internal processes but also acts as a credential that strengthens the company’s position in competitive markets.
Looking ahead, Pica Electrical plans to further leverage the network to expand its reach and connect with new contractors seeking compliant partners.
