Proven success. Real impact.

TechConnect

The mining sector faces constant pressure to improve operational efficiency, safety and sustainability. TechConnect supports mining companies by delivering robust digital transformation strategies, real-time data insights, remote operations support and secure cloud solutions.

Founded in 2011, TechConnect IT Solutions is a Gold Coast headquartered technology company delivering transformative IT services across Australia and globally. Its services are all designed to help streamline production, maintain compliance and optimise costs in challenging environments.

With more than 60 team members and offices in Brisbane, Sydney, South Africa and the Philippines, its focus remains on enabling clients to evolve, compete and grow through smart, scalable IT solutions.

For the mining sector, TechConnect specialises in designing and implementing modern cloud and data platforms that simplify production data, automate reporting and provide a single source of truth for better decision-making.

Its proven expertise in data engineering, AI and managed services helps mining companies reduce costs, improve operational insights and unlock more value from their information. The company works closely with mining clients in Queensland, New South Wales and WA — partnering with them to modernise legacy systems and deliver secure, real-time data that supports smarter, safer, more efficient operations.

Idemitsu Australia is a valued client and, at its Boggabri coal mine, TechConnect delivered a major data modernisation project to address challenges around fragmented legacy systems, inconsistent reporting and limited access to critical production data.

TechConnect began with stakeholder workshops and on-site engagement to map requirements, then migrated production data from multiple spreadsheets and outdated systems into a unified, cloud-based platform using Databricks and AWS. It automated and customised reporting workflows, built intuitive dashboards and provided tailored training so the Boggabri team could generate real-time insights with confidence.

Its team’s expertise in cloud architecture, data ingestion and platform development ensured a smooth migration and robust governance. The result was a secure, scalable single source of truth that streamlines data access, improves reporting accuracy and reduces manual effort. Boggabri now benefits from faster, data-driven decision-making, lower licensing and operational costs and a strong foundation to scale analytics across its operations.

Alongside Idemitsu Australia, TechConnect has worked with several leading mining and energy organisations, including Newcrest Mining (now NewMont), Anglo American, Senex Energy and Tilt Renewables. Its work spans end-to-end cloud and data solutions designed to modernise operations, streamline reporting, and unlock cost and productivity efficiencies. From improving data accessibility to enabling smarter decision making, we deliver scalable, secure platforms that support operational excellence across the mining lifecycle.

What sets TechConnect apart is its blend of deep technical expertise with a practical understanding of mining operations. It doesn’t just implement technology — it focuses on real outcomes that streamline workflows, reduce manual effort and deliver tangible returns. Clients trust TechConnect as a collaborative partner who stays engaged, keeps solutions fit for purpose and continually finds ways to help them work smarter and scale securely.

For mining companies, having a trusted single source of truth for production data is a game changer — and that’s exactly what TechConnect delivered at Boggabri.

Its team’s strength is bridging deep technical know-how with a practical, on-the-ground understanding of mining challenges.
