What We
Deliver.
Sensor-to-Cloud Data Architecture
End-to-end pipeline design — hardware selection, connectivity protocol (MQTT, CoAP, LoRaWAN), edge processing, cloud ingestion on AWS IoT or Azure IoT Hub, and time-series analytics. Scales from 10 sensors to 10,000 without rearchitecting.
Real-Time Monitoring Dashboards
Custom multi-site operations dashboards with configurable alert thresholds, anomaly detection, and drill-down analytics. Accessible on web, tablet, and mobile — with role-based access control for operational and management views.
Predictive Maintenance AI
Machine learning models trained on vibration, temperature, and performance telemetry — predicting equipment failure windows days before they occur. Reduces unplanned downtime by up to 45% and lowers maintenance cost-per-unit.
Edge Computing & Offline Resilience
On-device processing for latency-critical and connectivity-constrained deployments. Local decision-making and data buffering ensure continuous operation during network outages, with automatic cloud synchronisation on reconnect.
How We
Deliver.
Asset & Use-Case Mapping
We identify the physical assets, processes, and data gaps that IoT can address — scoping the solution around measurable operational outcomes and ROI, not technology features.
Hardware & Connectivity Design
Sensor selection, power architecture, connectivity protocol engineering (GSM/4G, LoRaWAN, satellite, NB-IoT), and ruggedisation for East Africa's physical and connectivity environment.
Platform Build & Integration
Cloud backend, data ingestion pipeline, processing logic, and dashboard — built to scale from 10 devices to 10,000 without rearchitecting, and integrated with your existing ERP, fleet, or farm management systems.
Deploy, Train & Support
On-site hardware installation, user training, and ongoing remote monitoring — with local engineers who can physically respond when needed, anywhere in East Africa.
Built For
These Organisations.
Advatech's IoT & Automation practice designs, deploys, and operates connected intelligence systems across East Africa. From GNSS-based livestock trackers that run maintenance-free for a full grazing season, to IEC 62443-aligned industrial automation and WHO-compliant vaccine cold-chain monitors — every deployment is engineered to international standards and backed by local engineers who can respond on the ground. We don't just install sensors; we deliver end-to-end systems from hardware selection and edge processing through to cloud analytics and actionable dashboards.
