Companies worldwide trust WZ-IT
Regional requirements, robust technology
Perth is Australia's mining and resources capital - the gateway to the Pilbara and Goldfields mining regions, and home to the headquarters of BHP, Rio Tinto, and Fortescue. As the hub for North West Shelf oil & gas operations and critical water infrastructure including desalination plants, Perth drives demand for connected remote operations, asset monitoring, and intelligent resource management. We deliver the IoT platforms that power this connectivity - reliably, scalably, and remotely managed from Germany with AU915 LoRaWAN compliance.
Sensors, gateways, data platform, business application, identities, interfaces, and operations are planned together. Additional sites, cloud services, or local edge systems can then build on the same architecture model.
Your IoT stack runs on hardened servers with control over data location and access. No vendor lock-in, open-source core - purpose-built for Perth-based mining and resources companies.
Automated 24/7 monitoring with alerts. Human response times and support coverage follow the selected service level; overnight P1 response is included with Production and Critical.
No ticket system, no call center. Your direct line to the engineer managing your IoT instance for Perth and Western Australia.
Concrete services
You can start with one clearly defined requirement. Architecture, devices, platform, applications, and operations are planned so the first component can become part of one coherent IoT system when needed.

The examples illustrate possible application patterns. Architecture, radio coverage, device selection, data model, and operating scope are assessed for the specific project.
One system instead of isolated silos
Value does not come from a single sensor or dashboard. What matters is an end-to-end data path with clear interfaces, access rules, and operating responsibilities.
Sensors, gateways, machines, PLCs, and existing data sources are selected or connected according to the measurement task, environment, and protocol.
View componentLoRaWAN, MQTT, cellular links, edge gateways, and private networks move data between sites, platforms, and other systems in a controlled way.
View componentChirpStack, ThingsBoard, Grafana, databases, and rule engines provide device management, processing, history, and alerting.
View componentDashboards, portals, mobile apps, and ERP, MES, and API integrations put IoT data into the actual workflows.
View componentMonitoring, backups, updates, incident response, and service levels keep the platform and data paths maintainable and transparent.
View componentThe architecture can grow with more devices, sites, applications, and deployment locations without introducing isolated connections or hard-to-maintain special paths for every extension.
Technical foundation
We rely on a proven open-source stack: ChirpStack as LoRaWAN network server (AU915 frequency plan), ThingsBoard for device management and dashboards, Grafana for real-time visualization, and Node-RED for data routing and SCADA integration. All hosted on hardened Linux servers with automatic backups and security updates.

Deployment models

We rely on Milesight and know the product portfolio inside out - from environmental sensors to LoRaWAN gateways to industrial controllers. We advise, source and integrate the right hardware for your use case.
Milesight hardware ships worldwide - we deliver pre-configured and firmware-updated, ready to deploy.
We also work with hardware from other manufacturers - whether proprietary or open-source. What matters is that it works reliably and integrates into our stack.
Project path
The initial step remains manageable. Device count, architecture, integrations, and operating responsibilities are defined only after the technical assessment.
Capture measurements, sites, users, existing systems, alert paths, and the expected business outcome.
Combine radio path, devices, platform, data model, interfaces, and security requirements in a testable design.
Provision devices, configure services, process data, and connect dashboards or business applications.
Agree monitoring, updates, backups, and response paths, then add further sites or capabilities in a controlled way.
Region and scale
A regional entry point does not limit the architecture. Platforms can cover multiple plants, properties, fields, or customer sites under one operating model.
From our remote delivery base, we manage IoT infrastructure across Perth and the entire Western Australian region.
Industries
The technical foundation can be adapted to different measurement tasks and business processes.

Themen
We select and integrate LoRaWAN gateways and sensors at the mine site for local data collection - vibration, temperature, dust levels, and equipment status. Data is transmitted to a centrally hosted IoT platform accessible from Perth headquarters. ATEX-compatible sensors are available for hazardous zones. The entire platform is managed remotely by WZ-IT.
We provide ATEX-certified and IECEx-rated sensors for hazardous mine environments - including vibration sensors for heavy machinery, dust and particulate monitors, gas detectors, and temperature probes. All sensors are pre-configured for immediate deployment and integrated into your monitoring dashboard.
We select and integrate LoRaWAN sensors along pipeline corridors for pressure, flow rate, temperature, and leak detection. With AU915-compliant gateways providing long-range coverage, data is aggregated on the central IoT platform in real time. Automated alerting ensures rapid response to anomalies across the North West Shelf and Kwinana infrastructure.
We integrate gas leak detectors, VOC sensors, H2S monitors, flame detectors, and environmental monitoring stations. All sensor data feeds into automated alerting workflows with configurable thresholds - supporting compliance with Australian safety and environmental regulations.
Our IoT platform monitors critical desalination parameters: membrane pressure differentials, flow rates, energy consumption, water quality metrics, and equipment status. Real-time dashboards and automated alerts enable operators to optimize plant performance and respond quickly to anomalies.
Yes. We integrate smart water meters and distribution network sensors (pressure, flow, leak detection) into a unified IoT platform. Real-time visualization in Grafana and ThingsBoard enables water utilities to detect leaks early, optimize pressure management, and reduce non-revenue water losses.
Australia uses the AU915 frequency plan for LoRaWAN. All hardware we provide - gateways and sensors - is configured for AU915 compliance. Our ChirpStack network server is set up with the correct frequency channels for reliable operation across Perth and Western Australia.
Our core stack: ChirpStack as LoRaWAN network server (AU915), ThingsBoard (Community & Professional Edition) for device management, Grafana for visualization, and Node-RED for data flow automation and SCADA bridging. Custom apps are built with React, Next.js, and React Native.
The timeline depends on the platform, device count, radio planning, data paths, integrations, and operating model. After the technical assessment, you receive a rollout plan with prerequisites, dependencies, and milestones.
Yes. We design and develop multi-tenant platforms for multiple sites across Western Australia - with site-specific dashboards, role-based access controls, and custom alerting logic. Central oversight from Perth with drill-down capability to individual mine sites, refineries, or water assets.
