Which technologies do you consult on?

All of the major location, identification and IoT technologies: RTLS (UWB, BLE, Wi-Fi), RFID (passive, active and RAIN UHF), industrial IoT and sensors, GPS and GNSS, AGV and AMR robot fleets, and hybrid stacks that combine them. We recommend the right mix for each zone and use case, not a single technology.

Are you really vendor-neutral?

Yes. We do not sell hardware or a software platform of our own, and we take no resale commissions, so our technology and vendor recommendations serve your outcome rather than a product we need to move.

Do you work outside the UK?

We are UK-based and work across Europe and internationally, delivering in English, German and French. Engagements can be remote or on-site depending on the work.

What does a consulting engagement include?

Typically discovery and requirements, vendor-neutral technology selection, vendor evaluation and RFP support, ROI and business case, solution architecture, and an implementation roadmap. We scope each engagement to where you are.

Can you help after the decision is made?

Yes. We work across the full lifecycle - we can also deploy, integrate, and operate the system, so you can keep one independent team from business case through to live operation.

How do we get started?

Usually with a short call or a fixed-fee discovery to scope the problem, followed by a proposal with clear deliverables, timeline and fees. There is no obligation and no platform pitch.

RTLS, RFID and IoT consulting — UK.

We advise UK enterprises on RTLS, RFID and IoT deployments — independent, vendor-neutral, no commissions or kickbacks. Industries we cover include manufacturing, healthcare (NHS Trusts), logistics and 3PL, defence, retail and aerospace.

Deployment partner network across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Remote scoping engagements run from anywhere; on-site visits to the UK regularly.

UK industries we cover

Manufacturing and industrials: automotive (Midlands, North-East), aerospace (Bristol, Lancashire, Belfast), food and beverage (across UK), pharmaceutical (Cambridge, Stevenage, Macclesfield).

Healthcare: NHS Trusts (acute and community), independent hospital groups (HCA, Spire, BMI), pharmacy and pharma distribution.

Logistics and 3PL: container ports (Felixstowe, Southampton, London Gateway), 3PL networks, e-commerce fulfilment, cold chain. Defence: MOD facilities and contractors (UK Defence Logistics, BAE, QinetiQ).

Retail: apparel item-level, grocery DCs, store operations. Energy and utilities: oil-and-gas Aberdeen, offshore wind, water utilities.

Regulatory and compliance fit

UK RTLS deployments have specific regulatory considerations. UK Radio Equipment Regulations — devices must comply post-Brexit (UKCA marking alongside CE). NHS Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT) — required for healthcare RTLS connected to patient data.

UK GDPR — staff tracking and patient location both engage UK GDPR; works council / union consultation expected for staff systems. HSE Working at Height / Confined Spaces regulations — overlap with worker-safety RTLS deployments.

NCSC Cyber Essentials Plus — increasingly required for government and supply-chain procurements. We design for these in stage 1. See /compliance/gdpr.

UK vendor and deployment partner ecosystem

Most global RTLS, RFID and AGV/AMR vendors have UK presence directly or through partners. Specifically strong UK partner ecosystems: Impinj, Zebra, Honeywell (RFID); Quuppa, Aruba (BLE-AoA); Sewio, Ubisense (UWB, with Ubisense headquartered in Cambridge); MIR, Geek+ (AMR).

We maintain relationships across the UK partner ecosystem but take no fees, commissions or kickbacks — independent by policy. See /about/independence.

How we engage with UK clients

Remote scoping engagements run from anywhere — most clients we serve don't need on-site visits during stage 1. For stage 2 (pilot) and stage 3 (production rollout), we visit regularly.

We work across English, Welsh and Scottish jurisdictions in English; we coordinate with EU partners for client deployments spanning UK and continental Europe. Engagements run from 4-week scoping reviews to multi-year programme advisory.

UK-specific case studies

We've advised UK clients in NHS RTLS (Trust-wide asset tracking, hand-hygiene), automotive WIP (Midlands plants, UWB), warehouse RFID (3PL networks, RAIN), aerospace tool control (BAE, Rolls-Royce supply chain), and retail apparel item-level (UK high-street and DC).

Specific case studies are anonymised by default; references are callable with permission. See /case-studies.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with NHS Trusts directly?

Yes — directly with Trusts, with NHS Shared Business Services, or via NHS-approved framework agreements. We have experience navigating NHS procurement and DSPT compliance for connected RTLS systems.

Are you on NHS frameworks (e.g., GCloud, NHS SBS)?

We pursue framework presence as engagements demand. Many NHS clients engage us via direct procurement under threshold; larger programmes use frameworks. We adapt to client procurement constraints.

Do you cover Northern Ireland?

Yes — Northern Ireland is part of our UK practice. We work with NI manufacturers, healthcare and defence. Specific dual-EU/UK regulatory considerations (Windsor Framework) handled case-by-case.

Can you help us with UK government procurement (CCS, MOD)?

Yes — we have engaged on MOD-related procurement. Defence-specific clearances depend on the engagement; we work within those constraints.

How do you handle post-Brexit UKCA and CE marking?

We design with UKCA / CE / both in mind during stage 1 architecture. Most major RTLS / RFID vendors carry both marks; we verify compliance during vendor evaluation.
