Deep expertise across five sectors.

Rail & Transport

CWG has an extensive track record in the rail sector, from major signalling and train control programs in NSW and WA to infrastructure maintenance reviews in New Zealand. Our capability spans the full rail system lifecycle — from early feasibility and systems definition through to safety case, regulatory approval and network handover.

• ✓ETCS, CBTC, ATO signalling systems
• ✓TAO-accredited Independent Safety Assessment
• ✓EN 50126 / EN 50129 safety and RAM
• ✓ADSVR and SRACs
• ✓PMO and program delivery
• ✓Systems assurance and configuration management

Mining & Resources

CWG has been at the forefront of mining automation and decarbonisation programs in Western Australia. Our team has delivered safety assurance, systems engineering and project management on some of the most technically complex and commercially significant mining programs in Australia — including the world's first heavy haul Virtual Block deployment and multiple Battery Electric Locomotive programs.

• ✓Mining automation safety — autonomous haulage (road and rail)
• ✓Battery electric locomotive safety assurance and ONRSR engagement
• ✓IEC 61508, ISO 17757, Global Mining Guidelines
• ✓ONRSR accreditation and regulator interface management
• ✓Operational readiness for autonomous systems
• ✓Project management and scrum delivery for novel technology

Automation

CWG has supported the introduction of autonomous vehicle systems on public roads and private mining roads, including providing ministerial approvals support for Australia's first autonomous vehicle trials on public roads. We bring functional safety expertise, regulatory engagement capability and operational readiness support to automation programs across road, rail and mining.

• ✓Functional safety — ISO 26262, ISO 17757
• ✓Regulator engagement and ministerial approvals
• ✓Operational readiness for autonomous systems
• ✓Autonomous system safety case development
• ✓Deployment, validation and verification support
• ✓Remote operations centre design and procedures

Space

CWG holds a Deed of Standing Offer under the Australian Government's Space Capabilities and Services Panel (DISR, January 2026). We bring our proven approach to safety assurance, project management and systems engineering to Australia's emerging space sector — applying the same engineering rigour we have developed on safety-critical rail, mining and automation programs.

• ✓Mission lifecycle management — scheduling, budgeting, risk, resourcing
• ✓Launch and re-entry safety assurance and advisory
• ✓Safety, security and environmental risk management for space programs
• ✓Systems engineering across the space mission lifecycle
• ✓Incident and accident investigation support
• ✓Compliance assessment and project management tools

Defence

CWG's capabilities in safety-critical systems engineering, independent assurance, cybersecurity and complex program management directly apply to defence programs. We are actively growing our defence sector presence, bringing the same technical rigour and government-recognised credentials that our clients rely on in rail, mining and automation.

• ✓Systems engineering and functional safety for defence platforms
• ✓Independent safety assessment — TAO-accredited capability
• ✓Cybersecurity assurance for OT and control systems
• ✓Program management and governance for complex programs
• ✓Regulatory accreditation and compliance management
• ✓Maritime Policy and Maritime Law

Energy & Decarbonisation

CWG's experience in battery electric locomotive programs, autonomous systems and novel technology introduction positions us well to support the energy transition in heavy industry. Our work on BEL programs across Rio Tinto, Fortescue and HanRoy — including direct ONRSR engagement — gives us a unique understanding of what it takes to introduce zero-emission technology into safety-critical operational environments.

• ✓Battery electric locomotive safety assurance and ONRSR engagement
• ✓Novel technology introduction for zero-emission operations
• ✓System safety frameworks for decarbonisation programs
• ✓Regulator Interface Plans and ONRSR accreditation support
• ✓Project management for R&D and proof-of-concept programs
• ✓Hazard analysis and risk management for energy transition
