Cor Cordis appointed Voluntary Administrators of Alertvale Pty Ltd trading as SMW Group

Darryl Kirk and Stephen Earel of restructuring advisory firm Cor Cordis, have been appointed Voluntary Administrator of Alertvale Pty Ltd trading as SMW Group (“SMW Group”) on 18 September 2025.

SMW Group is a well-established provider of field services, maintenance and support to the mining and industrial sectors. With more than two decades of operation, the Group has built a reputation for delivering critical services on-site and off-site, with a strong focus on safety, reliability and client service.

The appointment forms part of a broader restructuring process following SMW Group’s decision to delist, with voluntary administration providing the best opportunity to reset the business and position it for a more sustainable future.

The company continues to trade while the Administrators undertake an urgent assessment of its operations. During this period, the Administrators will work closely with management and stakeholders to explore options to restructure the business, preserve jobs and ensure continuity of services to clients.

Darryl Kirk stated, “Voluntary administration provides an opportunity for SMW Group to restructure its operations and stabilise its financial position. Our focus over the coming weeks is to assess the company’s affairs, work with stakeholders and identify the best path forward for the business, its employees and its customers.”

The first meeting of creditors will be convened shortly, with details to be provided directly to stakeholders in accordance with statutory requirements.
