Mining Software Development Perth

Why Mining Companies Need Custom Software

Off-the-shelf software assumes reliable internet, office-based users, and standard business processes. Mining operations assume none of those things. Sites are remote. Connectivity is satellite or intermittent 4G. Users wear PPE and operate in harsh environments. Data needs to be audit-grade for compliance reporting. And the processes — from blast-hole logging to geochemistry QA/QC to fatigue management — are too specialised for generic tools.

Nano Solutions builds custom software for mining and resources companies that works the way mining actually works: offline-first, field-ready, and built for the data integrity requirements that regulators and investors demand.

What We Build for Mining

• Real-time geochemistry QA/QC: Field data collection apps that validate assay data at the point of entry, flag anomalies immediately, and sync to centralised databases when connectivity allows. Designed for geologists working on drill rigs, not sitting at desks.
• Workforce management: Roster scheduling, fatigue management, competency tracking, and site-access control for workforces that rotate through remote sites on FIFO/DIDO patterns.
• Asset and equipment tracking: GPS-tagged asset management with maintenance scheduling, compliance inspections, and lifecycle reporting.
• Operational dashboards: Real-time production data aggregated from multiple site systems into unified dashboards for operations managers and executive teams.
• Safety and incident reporting: Mobile-first incident reporting, near-miss tracking, and safety observation tools that work offline and sync when back in range.
• Environmental monitoring: Sensor data ingestion, threshold alerting, and compliance reporting for environmental licence conditions.

Built for Remote and Offline Environments

Every mining application we build uses offline-first architecture. The app works fully without internet connectivity — data entry, validation, photography, GPS tagging all happen locally. When the device returns to connectivity (site office Wi-Fi, satellite link, or back in town), data syncs automatically with conflict resolution for any records modified in parallel.

This is the same architecture behind our Co-Connect workforce platform, which runs on tablets at remote mining sites across Western Australia.

Compliance and Data Integrity

• JORC compliance: Data collection workflows that enforce the sampling and assay validation requirements for JORC-reportable resource estimates.
• Chain of custody: Immutable audit trails from sample collection through assay results, with timestamp, location, and operator identity at every step.
• WHS reporting: Structured incident and near-miss reporting aligned with WA Mines Safety and Inspection Act requirements.
• Environmental: Automated compliance reporting against environmental licence conditions, with threshold alerts and exception workflows.

Technology Stack

We build mining software with the same proven stack we use across all projects: Laravel for backend APIs, Vue.js and Quasar for field-ready interfaces, Capacitor for native mobile deployment, and PostgreSQL for data integrity. Infrastructure runs on AWS, Azure, or on-premises depending on your data sovereignty requirements.

Perth Mining Software Experience

We have delivered software for mining and resources clients including real-time geochemistry QA/QC platforms, workforce management tools for FIFO operations, and field-data collection systems designed for remote environments. Our office in Fremantle means face-to-face workshops with Perth-based mining teams, with deployment to remote sites across WA.

Typical Investment

Mining software projects typically range from $40,000–$80,000 for a focused field-data collection app, $80,000–$150,000 for a multi-module platform with offline sync and integrations, and $150,000+ for enterprise mining platforms with real-time dashboards and compliance reporting.
