WHO'S BARTERING?
You may see yourself in our customers? Start with the problem. There's nothing like business compliance or statutory obligation to demand a mundane, manual inspection of something? Connecting something would eliminate the commute, its cost and carbon impact? The thing is, mobile/GSM lasts days on battery power and WiFi doesn't have the range or power. This is where BARTER FOR THINGS comes in. We deliver a third way. Complimentary to mobile and WiFi, we connect things over long range lasting years on AA-batteries.
FIRE SAFETY
We solved a compliance conundrum that helps keep residents safe. Using devices connecting via our LPWAN for under £10 p.a. we enabled a cost-effective method to keep fire doors shut so they can do their job.
NETWORK COVERAGE
We worked with East Hants District Council to bring coverage to a mainly rural local authority. https://www.easthants.gov.uk/news/ehdc-helps-lead-way-new-internet-things-network
WATER LEAKAGE
We solved remote monitoring of water pressure and water leakage in pits. Using devices costing under £100 we saved our client £1300 a year in manual inspections.
ASSET TRACKING
We solved operational headaches by enabling our client to know where their fleet vehicles are at all times. Using GPS/LPWAN tracking devices our client is saving £73,000 in lost working time.
We have a site portfolio of 80+ Low-Power Network – Every week we're adding 60 square miles of coverage
