US-based equipment manufacturer Caterpillar has completed the acquisition of Australian mining software company RPMGlobal Holdings.

The financial details of the deal remain undisclosed.

This move aims to enhance Caterpillar’s range of data-driven technologies and software solutions for the mining sector, supporting customers in more efficient site planning, operation and management.

Caterpillar Resource Industries group president Denise Johnson said: “Acquiring RPMGlobal is a notable milestone supporting our strategy to solve the challenges our mining customers face every day.

“By combining RPMGlobal’s software capabilities with Caterpillar’s proven equipment and technology solutions, we will unlock new opportunities to help customers improve mine site performance, while advancing the future of mining technology in a way that is practical, scalable and grounded in their needs.”

RPMGlobal, with headquarters in Brisbane, provides specialised software solutions throughout the mining value chain.

The company will maintain its brand identity and continue to deliver products and services under its established name.

RPMGlobal CEO Richard Mathews said: “Given the complementary nature of the two companies’ technology offerings, Caterpillar is an ideal home for both our people and our software products.

“By deeply integrating our solution sets, we will be able to better solve the most difficult challenges mining companies grapple with daily. The team and I are looking forward to working with the Caterpillar team for the benefit of our customers.”

Caterpillar initially announced its intention to acquire RPMGlobal in October 2025.

In February of the same year, Vale signed a five-year global framework agreement with Caterpillar to expand their collaboration and focus on productivity, innovation and carbon reduction initiatives.
