Mincom Proprietary Limited is an Australian software company, headquartered in the city of Brisbane. It is best known for its flagship asset management software, Mincom Ellipse,[1] although it also maintains a number of other software products targeting mining and manufacturing operations.[2]
The US investment firm Francisco Partners made a private bid for the company in 2007,[3] valued at $315 million Australian dollars.[4]
The company's name was originally devised as a contraction of the term "mining computing", as the company's initial products were aimed at the mining industry.[5]
