ComplyFlow vs Quartex

ComplyFlow vs Quartex: What Each One Does Best.

Quartex is a Perth-headquartered provider for asset-intensive industries, from flights and rosters to journey management, site access, training, and safety reporting. ComplyFlow, Sydney-based since 2009, puts the contractor, the Worker, the permit, and the job on one record, judged by your people. Here is where each is stronger.

The Short Answer.

ComplyFlow runs the contractor and the Worker through to the gate, with prequalification, site access, permits, incidents, plant, and inspections on one record, with AI you set up to read a submission against your criteria before your own people approve. Quartex covers the whole journey to a remote site: flights, accommodation, rostering, journey management, site access and onboarding, training, and safety reporting.

In Short

Who Is Stronger, and Where.

Where ComplyFlow Is Stronger

  • Permits are raised in ComplyFlow, and the crew signs in to them. Quartex’s Control of Work guide says it provides the controls either side of the permit, and that many customers connect a dedicated Control of Work platform. ComplyFlow raises the permit itself, each section cleared by its own approver, and the crew signs in to the active permit.
  • AI that reads the answers and the files. The Quartex pages that mention AI describe AI-generated event summaries and AI fatigue detection rather than AI reading a document against your criteria. ComplyFlow’s AI reads each question you choose against your criteria, a SWMS included, shows its reasons, and your people approve.
  • Your AI assistant works from the live record. None of the Quartex pages we read names an MCP server. ComplyFlow’s lets ChatGPT, Claude, or Copilot answer from your live data, read-only if you want it to be.
  • You can read the prices. Quartex publishes no price on the pages we read. ComplyFlow publishes its prices and a free Starter plan, and quotes its Enterprise plans.

Where Quartex Is Stronger

  • Flights, rosters, and the journey to site. Quartex’s people logistics books flights, accommodation, and rostering, and its journey management covers route planning, fatigue prompts, hazard alerts, and satellite-backed communication. ComplyFlow offers none of these.
  • Verification you can outsource. A Quartex guide says verification can be self-managed, outsourced to a team, or outsourced to a provider of your choice. ComplyFlow’s is your own reviewer, or the ComplyFlow safety team where you use that service.
  • A SOC 2 Type 2 report. Quartex’s news post announces SOC 2 Type 2 for its environmental management solution, with the report through your account manager. ComplyFlow is ISO 27001 certified and is not SOC 2.

Where Each One Wins

The Honest Version, Both Ways.

Choose ComplyFlow When the Permit Is Raised on the Same Record as the Worker.

A ComplyFlow permit is raised on a phone, its SWMS read by AI against your criteria, each section cleared by its own approver, and the crew signs in to the permit itself. Quartex says it provides the controls either side of the permit and connects a Control of Work platform, and does not issue the permit.

  • A reviewer per section, by role, team, or named holder
  • AI reads the SWMS against your criteria; your people approve
  • The crew signs in to the active permit

And When the Contractor’s Submission Needs Reading.

Quartex’s pages describe AI-generated event summaries and AI fatigue detection. Where you set it up, ComplyFlow’s AI reads the answers and files you choose against criteria you write, shows its reasons, and the contractor fixes the gaps before submitting. Your people approve.

  • AI reads the answers you choose against your criteria
  • The contractor fixes the gaps before submitting
  • Your people approve

Choose Quartex When the Journey to Site Is the Job.

Quartex’s people logistics books flights, accommodation, and rostering for an entire workforce, and its journey management runs from pre-departure through transit to arrival, with fatigue prompts and satellite-backed communication. If you run a remote operation and want one provider from the roster to the gate, it is built for that.

  • Flights, accommodation, and rostering in one platform
  • Journey management with fatigue prompts and hazard alerts
  • A profile sync between people logistics and site access

Questions

Questions People Ask About Quartex and ComplyFlow.

Who is Quartex?

A software provider for asset-intensive industries with its head office in Perth, according to its home page. Its about page describes two businesses that came together: INX, a workforce management system, and K2fly, heritage management and resource disclosure. Its post says the integration of INX Software and K2fly is complete, with the business rebadging as Quartex. It names six industries: mining and resources, oil and gas, energy and utilities, infrastructure and construction, transport and logistics, and government and health.

Who owns Quartex?

Quartex’s own posts say Accel-KKR, a US private equity firm, took majority ownership alongside management; that post carries no date on the page and was written under the INX name. Its 2 December 2025 post says it acquired Journey Management System (JMS) and Fly2Work from Ionyx, and describes Quartex as part of Accel-KKR’s portfolio. If you are signing a multi-year agreement, ask Quartex about roadmap and support through any change.

Is Sitepass part of Quartex?

Buyers may still say Sitepass. Quartex’s February 2026 release note describes a digital Sitepass ID card in its Site Access and Onboarding mobile app, and the older web address, mysitepass.com, redirects to quartexsoftware.com, read 5 October 2026. Ask which products your own agreement covers.

How does Quartex handle prequalification and document checks?

Its site access page lists contractor prequalification, digital onboarding, credential and licence management, two-level contractor governance, and workflow automation and expiry management, and says you can track, review, and verify qualification and ticket documents. A Quartex guide says verification can be self-managed, outsourced to a team, or outsourced to a provider of your choice. ComplyFlow’s approval is your own reviewer, or the ComplyFlow safety team where you use that service.

Does Quartex do permits to work?

In its own words, Quartex provides the controls either side of the permit: site access and onboarding, training and competency, worker health, and frontline safety reporting, and many customers run a dedicated Control of Work platform and connect it to Quartex. The Control of Work guide adds that, linked to a Control of Work workflow, a permit can only be raised when the worker’s competencies are current. ComplyFlow raises permits itself, and connects to intelliPermit, hsi, and solv through native connectors where you already run one. Ask what stops a permit being raised for a worker who is not ready, and who owns the connection.

Does Quartex use AI?

Its pages describe AI-generated event summaries in Quartex Safety, AI fatigue detection in its journey management, and a customer-partnership approach on its AI page. Ask where AI runs in contractor and worker document review. ComplyFlow’s AI reads answers and files against your criteria, a SWMS included, and shows its reasons; your people approve. It reviews a SWMS and never writes one, and AI review is optional unless a Client requires it.

Is Quartex SOC 2 certified, and is ComplyFlow?

Quartex’s news post announces SOC 2 Type 2 compliance for its environmental management solution and says to ask your account manager for the report; the post carries no date on the page, so ask which products the report covers. No page in Quartex’s published sitemaps names ISO 27001 (searched as raw HTML on 5 October 2026), and a page outside them may say otherwise. ComplyFlow is ISO 27001 certified, AWS Qualified Software since 2023, runs on AWS in Australia, and is not SOC 2. Check which one your own policy names.

Does Quartex have an API?

Its journey management page describes data accessible to external systems via APIs and webhooks, and a release note of 5 November 2025 introduces a REST API for Q Integrate. Ask which Quartex products the API covers and where its documentation sits. ComplyFlow’s REST API is documented in the Help Centre, and ComplyFlow adds an MCP server, read-only if you want it to be.

How does ComplyFlow connect a supplier, a Worker, and a work order?

Your maintenance or work-order system reads the supplier’s compliance through the API before it releases a job: cleared, and the Worker signs in to the order; not cleared, and your system holds it with the reason on the supplier’s record. The status is the same wherever it is read, and a Worker who is not cleared for the location will not be able to sign in until it is resolved, unless the site is set to allow Sign in Anyway, which notifies the client. The Inspection app records the work, and the open API reads and writes work orders and inspections.

Can we run both?

You can. One shape is Quartex carrying flights, rostering, and journeys, with ComplyFlow carrying permits, AI-read submissions, and the status your work-order system reads. It is still two records for one worker, which is the cost you are accepting. Whatever you run, ask what happens when a licence lapses after the worker is assigned: whether the permit, the work order, and the gate all see it.
