Background
Opmantek was formed and founded by current Chairman and CEO Danny Maher through the acquisition of the intellectual property to NMIS. Upon acquiring the intellectual property Mr Maher initiated a successful (oversubscribed) capital raise on the Australian Small Scale Offerings Board (ASSOB) and successfully received a grant from the City of Gold Coast Council to establish the corporate headquarters at the Gold Coast, Australia. Shortly after formation, Mr Maher recruited NMIS' founder Keith Sinclair from Cisco Systems as the company's CTO.
Opmantek invested in upgrading NMIS and keeping it as free software (both in the Free Software Foundation definition and also in monetary terms) and initially operated commercially by providing commercial support for NMIS.
Under Keith Sinclair's guidance Opmantek set about producing commercial modules that enhanced the functionality of NMIS and these modules were launched in September 2012 with various media statements indicating high success especially among Telecommunications organisations and managed service providers.
In January 2013 Opmantek acquired the intellectual property to the open source project Open-AudIT. As was the case with NMIS, Opmantek committed to investing in the open source project and operating commercially by selling additional modules and support. Open-AudIT's founder, Mark Unwin, joined Opmantek as part of the acquisition terms. Opmantek continues to publicly support Open Source Software and provides free enhancements and upgrades of both NMIS and Open-AudIT.
