Meet CorePlan: Your digital operations partner for modern drilling
The way drilling programs run is changing. With tighter budgets and rising expectations, efficiency, collaboration, and accuracy matter more than ever. CorePlan is leading this shift. We give exploration companies and drilling contractors a complete operations platform built to tackle the real-world challenges of drilling. By replacing outdated spreadsheets and disconnected systems with one fully integrated solution, CorePlan makes managing exploration projects simpler, faster, and more transparent for everyone involved.
What we do
CorePlan brings two specialized, connected hubs to the table:
For Exploration Companies & Geology Teams: The CorePlan Mining Hub is an all-in-one toolbox for running drill programs from start to finish. It centralizes planning, rig and pad tracking, sample dispatch, reconciliation, and field activities, so geologists, field techs, and managers can make quick decisions, keep costs under control, and keep programs on schedule.
For Drilling Contractors: The CorePlan Drilling Hub digitizes the entire workflow from the field to the office. Contractors can capture drilling data, manage approvals, instantly update clients, track revenue, and handle invoicing – all in one place. It’s a smarter, faster, more profitable way to operate.
On top of this, CorePlan makes it easy to log incidents, inspections, and compliance data, even offline. A powerful built-in analytics engine turns that data into insights with simple drag-and-drop reports and dashboards.
About CorePlan
CorePlan’s story began in 2016, when founder Alex Goulios launched Spring Tech to build modern, cloud-based software. By 2019, the mission sharpened: help exploration projects stuck in outdated systems.
In 2020, we launched an offline-first app for drill plod capture and safety, quickly winning market adoption. By 2021, with 30 customers on board, the company rebranded as CorePlan. The growth continued – in 2023, we launched the world’s first app for Field Activities, scaling to over 10,000 users. In 2024, CorePlan 2.0 arrived, delivering a completely new experience, backed by a global team of 60+ people from 23 nationalities.
Our mission and values
Our mission: To help people in mining work better, together in the modern age.
Everything we do ties back to helping the industry run more connected, cost-effective, and compliant drilling programs. We take a tailored, consultative approach with every customer, partnering closely to solve real problems and drive long-term success.
A global team built for the field
At CorePlan, building the future of mining doesn’t just mean great tech – it means great people. That’s why we’re growing rapidly across Australia, Asia, Africa, and now North America, with a new office opening in Vancouver, Canada.
We make sure our team truly understands the field. Our engineers and product specialists regularly visit drilling sites across Africa and the Pilbara, and we engage directly with operators and contractors around the world to understand their challenges and continuously improve our platform. This boots-on-the-ground approach ensures CorePlan’s solutions work not just on paper, but in the pit.
Why CDDA matters
CorePlan’s commitment to connection and collaboration aligns perfectly with the CDDA. Being an active member keeps us close to the leaders shaping core drilling, so we can continue building solutions that move the industry forward. It’s a partnership that supports our shared goal: a safer, more efficient, and more prosperous future for drilling and mining.
