MRS is a human capital resource company formed in 2007 by its chief executive, Paul Morffew, that offers a range of consulting services to the engineering, mining, petrochemical, energy, civil engineering and transportation industries.

MRS provides consulting services and contract personnel to add value to client projects by optimising business focus and efficiency whilst reducing costs. The majority of MRS's current clients are in the coal seam gas industry in Australia and South East Asia and MRS specialises in project management, quality management, environmental management and health & safety management standards. MRS does not provide mine management or other commoditised services, operating only in specialist, consistently profitable areas.

MRS is proposing to acquire the D&M Group of companies ("D&M") for a cash consideration of approximately A$6.7 million. The acquisition of D&M is classified as a reverse transaction under the AIM Rules for Companies and accordingly requires the approval of shareholders in general meeting.

D&M is a family run business established in 1972 by its Chairman, Doug Phillips, and based in Queensland, Australia. The D&M Group operates four businesses, being D&M Plant Hire, Wrights Plant Hire, DMR and Titan Manufacturing, in three divisions, wet hire, dry hire and manufacturing. The D&M Group has a wide base of corporate and public sector clients in oil & gas, mining, civil engineering, infrastructure and construction as well as local government, many of whom have brought continued business over a number years, with some clients having renewed contracts with the D&M Group for three decades.
