Capability & Approach

Our team of experts possess a broad, collective skillset which allows us to take a “big-picture” view of the systems which we apply ourselves to. 

We understand the implications of decisions made through the life of the system, allowing us to plan, deliver, operate and maintain a new or upgraded systems which work now and in the future. We achieve this through the application of our standardised approach, which we have finessed across the delivery of over 200 projects, both large and small. 

Our approach facilitates collaboration with partnering consultants, system suppliers, installers, and operators; by following a reliable, efficient, and consistent process, we’re allowed the freedom to concentrate on developing solutions to the many unique problems each Operational Technology project demands.

We know that no project is ever the same.

Layer 2 Intelligence recognise and celebrate the diversity of Aboriginal People’s and their ongoing cultures and care of Country. We pay respect to traditional Custodians and Elders past and present.
