CombiTel: Celebrating 20 Years of Innovation and Success

2025 marked a momentous milestone for CombiTel as the company celebrates its 20th anniversary, commemorating two decades of pioneering work in technology integration and software development. Since its founding in 2005, CombiTel has grown from a small specialised system integrator into a leading provider of digital media solutions, leaving an indelible mark across critical sectors in Australia and New Zealand. A Legacy of Landmark Projects CombiTel’s journey is defined by a commitment to delivering high-quality, complex digital solutions. The company's portfolio is studded with landmark projects that underscore its versatility and expertise: • Defence and Government: Provision of Quality of Life and communications systems for the Royal Australian Navy, demonstrating a capability for mission-critical deployments. • Healthcare: Implementation of a sophisticated IPTV system for the Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre, enhancing patient experience and operational efficiency. • Corrections and Justice: Deployments include a Digital Services system for the Ravenhall Correctional Centre and the IPTV system for the Christchurch Justice and Emergency Services Precinct, providing essential digital services in secure environments. • Industry Breadth: The company has also successfully completed numerous deployments in Aged Care, Hospitality, and Workforce Accommodation, cementing its role as a trusted partner across diverse markets. Innovation in Software Development A pivotal moment in CombiTel’s history occurred in 2011 with the establishment of its dedicated software development division. This strategic move allowed the company to evolve from solely integrating third-party solutions to creating its own intellectual property. The culmination of this effort was the launch of Omniscreen Pilot, which quickly became CombiTel's flagship software product. Omniscreen Pilot embodies the company's innovation, providing advanced solutions for content delivery and management. Foundational Success The path to success was paved by early achievements, including the turnkey deployment of a Pay-TV and Video On-demand platform for TransACT in Canberra. This foundational project set the standard for the company’s future large-scale, complex deployments. As CombiTel looks back on 20 years of achievement, it also looks forward to a future focused on continued innovation, expanding the capabilities of Omniscreen Pilot, and building on its strong foundation of successful technology partnerships and deployments. The company’s story is a testament to its dedication to excellence and its enduring impact on the digital landscape.
