WattsNet began as a consultancy in 2008 to allow its founding directors to take advantage of an expanding client base. In mid 2009, an opportunity was presented to WattsNet to develop a business management system. One of WattsNet's clients had been searching for a software product to meet their needs and nothing on the market at the time was meeting those needs. From that grew Heads-up. Wattsnet continues to provide IT services to its clients in the mining, environmental services and architecture industries. As it grows, it is moving more and more to providing software development services to those same clients and new clients.
