Measurement Solutions joins the Bestech Group: a significant step into the process industries

The process industry has long been a space where trust is earned through specialisation. Industrial engineers and maintenance operators have long had access to quality sensors and instrumentation to ensure continuous operation and management of capital assets. However, operators managing critical systems in the oil and gas, mining, process and water industries do not simply buy instrumentation; they choose partners with demonstrated depth in their niche.

That depth and expertise takes time to build. That is the gap Bestech Australia is now positioned to close. The acquisition of Measurement Solutions is a meaningful development, both for the Group and for the customers it now serves together.

Why Measurement Solutions?

Measurement Solutions has built its market reputation precisely where Bestech recognised a gap; a specialised process instrumentation provider for demanding industrial environments. Their portfolio spans pressure, level, vibration, flow, and analytical instrumentation, with the application expertise to match. This is not a generalist offering repositioned for process industries; it is a business built around them.

For process operators evaluating partners, that distinction matters. The right measurement layer is not simply about sensor specifications: it is about understanding how a system behaves under real operating conditions. Demanding process environments are generally encountered in resource-intensive industries such as oil and gas, mining, water and wastewater, energy and manufacturing. Systems run continuously 24/7 and are exposed to pressure fluctuations, aggressive media and tightening compliance requirements. Even minor instrumentation gaps can lead to process inefficiencies, unplanned downtime or compromised safety outcomes. The capability of being able to select, configure and integrate technologies becomes critical and not a value-add.

Measurement Solutions brings the know-how and field-level knowledge to support the requirement of process operators. That practical expertise, built over years of working directly within these industries, is what differentiates a true process instrumentation partner from a product supplier.

Bestech endorsement

Measurement Solutions will continue to operate under its own brand and identity. What changes is the infrastructure behind it.

As part of the Bestech Group, Measurement Solutions gains access to a broader product portfolio and engineering capability as well as national sales and technical support across all Australian states and New Zealand. Bestech is a national engineering company that provides a full lifecycle service model; from initial design and technology selection through to installation, commissioning and after-sales technical support. This continuity of support is particularly valuable in process industries, where the cost of getting instrumentation wrong extends well beyond the device itself.

For customers, this means a specialist process instrumentation partner that now carries the scale, resources and long-term continuity of a larger group: the domain expertise remains, and the support capability expands.

Expanding Bestech’s presence in the process industry

Bestech Australia has served industrial customers across a range of segments in the area of precision sensors, technical teaching and training equipment and electrical products. The process and oil and gas markets differ in terms of their requirement for specialised knowledge on top of an extended product portfolio. Entering this space meaningfully requires a partner with established credibility, combined portfolio depth and genuine application knowledge. This is the value that Measurement Solutions bring to Bestech’s portfolio.

Together, we are positioned as a leading solutions provider for process, water and oil and gas operators; combining the specialised knowledge and product depth of Measurement Solutions with the national sales reach and technical support infrastructure of Bestech.

For process operators looking for a partner that understands both the technology and the environment it operates in, that combination is now available through a single, integrated team.
