Every programme we deliver is built on the same architecture.
Raw events flow up. Decisions and learning flow down. The vendor-neutral event stream sits in the middle so the radio layer can change without rewriting the workflow.
- Layer 1 — raw events from radios and sensors
- Layer 2 — derived states: dwell, transition, co-location
- Layer 3 — business events in the language of the workflow
- Layer 4 — decisions, alerts, work orders, interlocks
- Layer 5 — analytics, prediction, simulation
Discovery, business case, and roadmap.
Discovery workshops
Structured sessions to surface use cases, stakeholders, workflows, current pain, and the future-state outcomes that justify investment.
Business case & ROI modelling
Quantified ROI models built around your numbers — cost saved, time released, accuracy gained — not a vendor's hypothetical case study.
Multi-year roadmap
Phased adoption plan that sequences use cases, vendor consolidation, integration, and analytics maturity.
Vendor-neutral evaluation.
The differentiator. We're not a reseller. The recommendation is driven by your environment, accuracy requirement, and total cost of ownership — full stop.
Technology stack evaluation
UWB vs BLE vs RAIN RFID vs active RFID vs Wi-Fi vs ultrasound vs vision vs SLAM. Comparative analysis against your use case, infrastructure, and budget.
Product & tag benchmarking
Frequency selection (LF, HF, UHF, microwave), inlay tests, reader performance, antenna placement — competitive against your environment, not the vendor's test chamber.
RFP design & vendor management
RFP development with structured evaluation criteria, vendor shortlisting, demo orchestration, and scoring.
Contract & commercial review
Scope, magnitude, technical complexity, resourcing, and commercial fairness validated against current market benchmarks before you sign.
Site, network, and integration design.
RF site survey
On-site or remote-driven surveys, predictive RF modelling, anchor and reader placement, and obstruction analysis.
Network & infrastructure design
Wired and wireless network design, PoE planning, cable-free options where appropriate, and edge compute placement.
Integration design
Middleware architecture and integration mapping to ERP, MES, EMR, CMMS, WMS, ServiceNow, nurse call, paging, BMS, and digital-twin platforms.
Four gates between scoping and a live, useful system.
We hold each gate. No work below the line until the gate above is signed.
Feasibility, PoC, and pilot.
Feasibility studies
Off-the-shelf demonstrations of the critical project requirement, regulator- and standards-compliant from day one. Concise documented feasibility report.
Proof-of-concept
Focused PoCs against a single, measurable hypothesis. Designed for go / no-go decisions, not vendor demos.
In-situ pilots
Small-scale, segregated-network pilots that mirror full deployment conditions — revealing performance issues before scale-up.
Rollout, integration, and commissioning.
Programme management
Multi-site, multi-region rollouts managed against clear gates, governance, and reporting.
Implementation & commissioning
Hardware staging, server build, reader and anchor configuration, tag commissioning, sitefile development, and system networking verification.
UAT & handover
Scripted UAT scenarios, performance verification, as-built documentation, and clean handover into operational support.
Turning location events into operational signal.
Most RTLS programmes stop at a moving dot on a map. The analytics layer is where the ROI actually shows up.
Data engineering
Vendor-neutral event ingestion, normalisation, and time-alignment with ERP / MES / EMR / WMS systems.
BI & dashboarding
KPI design and dashboarding mapped to the metrics your business already reports — not generic vendor widgets.
Digital twin & simulation
Spatial data structured for digital-twin platforms. Simulation, what-if modelling, and predictive analytics on real movement data.
Training, optimisation, and change management.
Operator & admin training
Role-specific training programmes for clinical staff, operators, system admins, and biomed teams.
Performance optimisation
Antenna fine-tuning, reader algorithm adjustments, network optimisation, and zone redefinition based on real operational data.
Change management
Stakeholder engagement, workflow redesign, super-user programmes, and the soft-skills work that drives real adoption.
Audit, advisory, and project recovery.
Post-implementation audit
Quarterly performance audits, drift analysis, and optimisation opportunities. The work that keeps systems delivering value at year two and beyond.
Project recovery
Stalled or failing rollouts triaged in days. Assessment, recovery plan, dedicated project management or guidance to your team, unified communication.
Expert review & dispute resolution
Confidential, independent, unbiased technical review and expert-witness services for RFID and Auto-ID disputes.
Procurement & sourcing review
Validate or optimise sourcing using two decades of RFID marketplace knowledge. Right price, right quality, IP and patent compliance, with a full audit trail.
Go-to-market & channel advisory.
European market entry
EMEA strategy, channel design, distributor selection, and localisation.
Sales channel development
Channel partner identification, enablement, and programme design.
Vertical market expertise
Market knowledge, customer references, and introductions across healthcare, manufacturing, logistics, retail, and aerospace.
Where the work goes deeper.
Five productised practices alongside the core delivery framework. Engage on any of them as a stand-alone scope, or as part of a larger programme.
