2016: 54 engagements.
In 2016 Epcotec delivered 54 engagements across Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and regional VIC/NSW/SA. Every engagement is recorded below - sector, work delivered and how it was achieved. No client names, by policy; references are available on request. The full 734-engagement register lives on one page here.
Fifty-four deliveries as the Australian practice takes shape around Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide, deliberately inland: no Western Australia, no Central Australia. Two threads define 2016. Telephony enters the delivery record: municipal communications and ICT integration become a deliverable alongside survey and asset work. And every engineering product now carries a deeper information-and-communications layer: data models, delivery pipelines and reporting interfaces, not just datasets.
