Dingo Software

Dingo Software is a Brisbane-based predictive maintenance analytics company founded in 1991, making it one of the longest-established players in mining equipment analytics. The company manages the condition of 170,000+ vital components daily across $14 billion+ worth of equipment at 250+ mining and industrial operations across six continents. In June 2025, The Riverside Company (a global private equity firm) acquired a majority stake to accelerate AI development and global expansion, with founder Paul Higgins transitioning to Executive Chairman and CEO Charlie Forrest continuing to lead operations.

Dingo's core strength is its three decades of mining equipment condition data — arguably the deepest historical dataset in the predictive maintenance analytics space. Key mining clients include Newmont, Rio Tinto, Glencore, Teck Coal, Ero Copper, Eldorado Gold, and Coeur Mining. The company is expanding beyond mining into defence (Australian Defence Force) and renewable energy sectors.
