REMPLAN

What REMPLAN does

REMPLAN is an Australian privately held software and advisory company headquartered in Bendigo, Victoria, that provides area-specific economic and demographic data analytics to local government, state government, universities, and professional services firms across Australia. The company's core product is a proprietary regional economic modelling framework originally developed at La Trobe University beginning in 1999, which quantifies economic contributions, supply chain linkages, employment impacts, and value-added metrics for defined geographic areas.

The product portfolio is delivered as cloud-based subscriptions and comprises four core modules — REMPLAN Economy (regional economic analysis), REMPLAN Community (demographic analysis), REMPLAN Forecast (population and dwelling projections), and Housing Profiles (housing market analysis) — complemented by free public Data Explorer tools (Region, ERP, JobSeeker, Unemployment, Housing Affordability), an interactive MapBuilder mapping tool, and an in-house REMPLAN Consulting advisory service. All products are continuously updated with Australian Bureau of Statistics and other government data, and the methodology is documented and externally verifiable, supporting credibility with public-sector procurement.

REMPLAN operates a sales-led go-to-market targeting Australian government agencies, universities, and consulting firms, combining annual software subscriptions with customised consulting engagements such as economic impact assessments, cost-benefit analyses, feasibility studies, and business cases. The firm employs 11-50 staff including economists, demographers, urban planners, and software developers, with offices in Bendigo (Victoria), Robina (Queensland), and Tonsley (South Australia). Named customers include multiple Australian councils (City of Greater Bendigo, Cessnock, Launceston, Port Stephens, Wyndham, City of Perth), state governments (NSW, Tasmania), universities (Monash, La Trobe), and Big 4/professional services firms (EY, PwC, Urbis, GHD). The company is privately held with no disclosed external investors, funding rounds, or revenue.
