Highlights

  • Felix reported AUD 13.5 mn in group contracted ARR for September 2026.
  • Orcoda announced a three-year transport optimisation contract in November.
  • ikeGPS recorded approximately NZD 11 mn in half-year subscription revenue, up 22%.
  • The companies depend on renewals, implementation and recurring customer spending rather than consumer app downloads.

Software used by contractors, logistics managers and infrastructure engineers often attracts less attention than consumer apps, even when it underpins everyday operations. Felix Group Holdings Limited (ASX:FLX), Orcoda Limited (ASX:ODA) and ikeGPS Group Limited (ASX:IKE) apply specialist technology to those industries. All three showed no daily percentage change on 13 November 2026, at AUD 0.036, AUD 0.070 and AUD 0.705, respectively.

Procurement Platforms Build Contracted Revenue

Felix reported AUD 13.5 mn of group contracted annual recurring Revenue at September-end, including AUD 7.6 mn from enterprise products. Its Nexvia component grew to AUD 4.1 mn, up 21.9%, as the group added two enterprise customers and expanded five existing accounts in the quarter. Felix also outlined an AUD 5.65 mn Capital raising and further work on AI-assisted procurement tools. Its platform connects contractors and suppliers through vendor and sourcing workflows. Contracted ARR measures recurring Business under agreement, not a guarantee that all of that amount has already been recognised in revenue. Funding and successful rollout of new platform functions remain relevant to the pace of growth.

Transport Optimisation Secures a New Contract

Orcoda announced a three-year supply-chain transport optimisation contract on 4 November 2026. The announcement followed a September-quarter update reporting unaudited revenue of AUD 6.2 mn, up 63% quarter-on-quarter, and annual Recurring Revenue of approximately AUD 14.7 mn. The group operates transport, workforce and facilities-management technology and services. Orcoda’s stable AUD 0.070 price on 13 November does not alter the operating significance of adding a contract, although contract timing and implementation can affect when value appears in results. The company’s delivery performance, customer retention and the proportion of income that is truly recurring will be central factors in assessing its progress.

Infrastructure Measurement Moves Toward Subscriptions

ikeGPS reported approximately NZD 11 mn of platform subscription revenue for the six months ended September 2026, an increase of 22% year-on-year. Subscriptions accounted for approximately 85% of total revenue, while the annualised subscription exit run rate stood near NZD 22 mn, up 13%. The company develops measurement and data tools for Utility and communications infrastructure users. Its October update also targeted three new products for introduction in the second half of FY27. The substantial recurring-revenue share provides visibility, but new-product schedules and renewals still matter. A launch target is a management plan, not an already completed release.

Why Contract Quality Matters

Felix’s contracted annual recurring revenue and ikeGPS’s platform subscriptions are designed to repeat, but each depends on continuing customer relationships and effective delivery. Orcoda’s transport and workforce operations can have a different mix of recurring software and contracted services. The reporting periods also differ: the figures cover a September quarter or September half-year, not one common interval. Capital requirements can be material when a company is adding staff, implementing customer systems or introducing a product. Felix has outlined financing activity, while ikeGPS is planning further products and Orcoda is undertaking new customer work. Assessing contract quality requires attention to renewal terms, margins and timing rather than top-line values alone.

What Comes Next?

Industrial software offers different ways to generate recurring business: contracted procurement systems, logistics services and infrastructure subscriptions. The next meaningful comparisons will involve executed contracts, customer expansions and actual revenues delivered over consistent reporting periods.
