Custom Mining Software Development

Mine sites and contractors work hours from the nearest town, often with no reception. We build offline-first field apps, safety and inspection tools and reporting dashboards that sync when a device gets back in range.

Software built for an office doesn't survive a mine site. Field crews on remote operations deal with patchy or non-existent connectivity, so cloud-only apps stop working the moment a vehicle leaves the camp. The fallback is paper: prestart checks, take-5s, incident reports and equipment inspections filled out by hand, driven back to site offices, and re-keyed into SAP or Pronto days later. By the time the data lands anywhere useful, it's stale and nobody trusts it enough to decide anything. Meanwhile, expensive equipment moves between pits, workshops and contractors across vast areas, and the spreadsheet that's supposed to track it is out of date the day it's saved.

Offline-first mobile apps let crews complete inspections, hazard reports and timesheets with zero connectivity, then sync automatically when they're back in range. SAP or Pronto stays where it is: field data flows into it through supported interfaces, equipment telemetry can feed maintenance scheduling where the OEM system exposes it, and SCADA data can drive environmental monitoring reports instead of someone exporting spreadsheets every month.

Resources compliance covers WHS obligations, mining legislation that differs between Queensland, Western Australia and New South Wales, environmental approval conditions with their own monitoring and reporting schedules, and FIFO workforce management. Tracking inductions, certifications and competency expiries across a rotating crew is a data problem as much as a rostering one. Software doesn't make those obligations disappear, but it can make them auditable: digital records with timestamps and signatures, automated reminders before reporting deadlines, and incident workflows that capture what regulators ask for. We design these systems against your specific obligations and flag anything that needs review by your safety or legal team.

We build for resources companies and contractors from Brisbane, from single-site quarry operations to multi-site service providers. The first step is tracing how data gets from the field to head office today. You get a fixed quote after that, and when the project ends the code and IP belong to you, with nothing tied to us.

Challenges We Solve for Mining

Where software usually breaks down in mining.

Remote Operations

Apps have to keep working on site with no signal and sync later without losing data.

Safety & Compliance

WHS reporting obligations that differ from state to state, often still handled on paper forms.

Asset Management

Knowing where equipment is, when it was last serviced and who is responsible for it, across sites far apart.

What We Build for Mining

Offline-First Mobile Apps

Field applications that work without connectivity and sync when back online.

Safety Management Systems

Incident and hazard reports filled in on a phone, with photos, and tracked through to close-out.

Asset Tracking

Equipment registers and service history, with location data pulled from the GPS trackers you already use.

Environmental Monitoring

Readings collected in the field and compiled into the reports your approvals require.

Compliance Frameworks We Design Around

WHS regulations
Environmental approvals
Mining Act requirements
FIFO workforce management

Mining Software Questions, Answered

Can you integrate with SAP or Pronto?

Where your instance exposes a supported API or interface, yes. Field apps feed SAP or Pronto rather than replace it; the ERP stays your system of record, and clean data from the field is pushed back automatically.

Will the apps work on remote sites without internet?

That's the default for our mining builds. Apps are designed offline-first: crews complete inspections, prestarts and reports with no connectivity at all, and everything syncs automatically when the device is back in range of site Wi-Fi or mobile coverage. No data is lost, and conflicts are handled predictably.

How much does custom mining software cost?

A digital prestart and inspection app or an incident reporting system usually starts around $15,000-$40,000. Asset tracking with ERP integration, or safety management across several sites, costs more depending on scope. The price is fixed after discovery, so it doesn't move mid-project.

Can the software handle our WHS and mining legislation reporting?

We build reporting workflows against your specific obligations: incident registers, hazard tracking, environmental monitoring schedules, and audit-ready records with timestamps and signatures. Requirements differ by state and tenement, so we design from your actual approval conditions and WHS procedures rather than a generic template.

Who owns the software once it's built?

Your company does, from final payment. There are no licence fees, and your internal team or another vendor can take the system over whenever you like; support from us is optional.
