Most teams don’t need more hardware for its own sake. They need to know what’s happening on site without driving there, catch equipment issues early, and stop relying on yesterday’s clipboard. That’s the IoT work we do at PDT.
What we actually build
Device connectivity
Onboard sensors and gateways, monitor health, and push updates without chasing offline units site by site.
Real-time monitoring
Live views of temperature, power, location, usage, or whatever your operation needs to watch continuously.
Edge processing
When the network is slow or decisions can’t wait, we process closer to the device and send only what matters upstream.
Alerts & prediction
Thresholds and patterns tuned with your team so alerts earn attention, and failures get fewer surprise visits.
How an IoT project usually runs
Map the need
Which readings change a decision? We skip vanity metrics that nobody will open.
Connect & secure
Hardware, networks, and encryption that match the site, dusty yards and all.
Make it usable
Dashboards and notifications for the people who respond, not only for IT.
Keep it honest
Health checks, battery and comms monitoring, and a plan when devices drop offline.
Where IoT tends to pay off first
Track temperature and humidity so spoilage and compliance issues show up in time to act.
Watch generators, load, and outages without relying on a phone call from the site.
Know where equipment is and how hard it’s being used, instead of guessing from last month’s logbook.
Spot vibration, heat, or runtime patterns that hint at failure before a line stops.
What you walk away with
- A scoped monitoring use case with clear success criteria
- Devices connected, secured, and visible in one place
- Dashboards and alerts your operations team can use
- APIs or feeds into systems you already run
- A support plan for offline devices and battery life
Common questions
Do you supply the hardware?
We can specify, source, and integrate devices, or work with hardware you already own. Fit for environment and supportability comes first.
What if connectivity is unreliable?
That’s normal in many sites. We plan for buffering, edge logic, and graceful reconnect so a bad signal doesn’t wipe the day’s data.
Can IoT data feed our existing systems?
Yes. We expose APIs or push into your analytics and operations tools so IoT doesn’t become another isolated silo.
Want visibility without the guesswork?
Tell us what you’re trying to watch and where it sits. We’ll outline devices, connectivity, and a dashboard that matches how your team responds.
