We're partnering with Hindmarsh Plumbing to put smart technology to work

One of South Australia's most established plumbing businesses is bringing CodeFish in to put smart technology to work across its operations. Hindmarsh Plumbing has been a fixture of SA industry since 1973. Part of the Sarah Group, it is one of the largest commercial and industrial plumbing businesses in the state, with a team of hundreds across Adelaide and Perth and a hand in some of SA's most recognisable builds, including the Adelaide Oval redevelopment and the new Royal Adelaide Hospital. This is a business built on more than fifty years of doing the hard work properly, and that is exactly the kind of organisation we exist to partner with.

What the partnership is about

We are bringing our expertise in custom software, automation and AI to Hindmarsh Plumbing, applying technology where it counts: the day-to-day operational work that keeps a company of this scale running. The detail will follow. What matters today is that a serious, established South Australian business has chosen a South Australian technology partner to help take it into its next phase. We design it, build it, and stay with it. We do not disappear once something goes live, we are in it for the long haul as a genuine partner.

What we actually build

It is worth being clear about what this partnership involves, because it is not what people often assume a studio does. We are not here to build a website or a brand. We build software that streamlines how a business runs day to day. A lot of that work falls under RPA, or robotic process automation. In plain terms, RPA means software robots that carry out the repetitive digital tasks a person would otherwise do by hand: logging into systems, moving data between them, filling in forms, and checking records, over and over. It is the invisible admin that quietly eats hours every week. Add AI agents that can handle the judgement and the messier decisions, and a business frees its people for the work that genuinely needs them.

That is the CodeFish difference. Custom software, automation and AI, built around how a business actually operates and supported for the long term. If your business has a process that is eating time, or an AI agent you have been wondering about, we would love to hear about it.

"Hindmarsh Plumbing is a genuine South Australian success story, and being trusted to bring our team's expertise into a business we admire is exactly why we do what we do. We are excited about what we will build together, and grateful to Ben Harrington for the trust he has placed in us."

Sim Penzo, CEO of CodeFish Studio.

What's next

This is the start of the partnership, and there is more to share as the work progresses. For now, we are proud to be working alongside the Hindmarsh Plumbing team.

Got a process eating time?

If repetitive admin is quietly costing your team hours, or there's an AI agent you've been wondering about, we'd love to hear about it.
