Internet of Things Consulting
IoT consulting helps take a realistic look at your IoT adoption: feasibility, challenges, opportunities, costs. ScienceSoft provides IoT consulting services to create IoT solutions with high ROI and plan coherent architectures of network-connected devices, data processing layers and apps.
Our IoT Consulting Services
Whether you just embarked on your IoT journey or are already making your way through it, our IoT consultants will help you make the best of the technological opportunities and set them in tune with your business strategy. Having mature project management practices, we steadily drive projects to their goals regardless of time, budget, and change request constraints.
Strategy planning for high-value IoT adoption
We elaborate the best value proposition for IoT adoption.
- Investigating thoroughly your business context, processes, organizational hierarchy.
- Finding reasons for inefficiencies noticed by you and detected during our investigation. For example, regular damage of perishables in warehouses may indicate poor temperature control.
- Outlining a potential IoT-enabled solution and describing the value it will create for your specific business situation.
IoT solution prototyping
We bring a general concept of your IoT solution to life with a working prototype.
- Planning major components of an IoT solution responsible for generating, analyzing and visualizing information as well as triggering response actions in smart things.
- Describing the functional scope of each solution component: smart things, data warehousing and analytics solutions, control and user-facing apps.
- Visually mapping the connectivity of IoT components.
- Preliminary estimating a data volume that will be processed by an IoT solution.
Hardware planning
We help you select reliable techs for hardware IoT components.
- Eliciting and structuring hardware requirements taking into account the use case and multiple environment variables: temperature, humidity, light, vibration, etc.
- Compiling the list of hardware to buy following the requirements specification.
- Shortlisting 2-3 reliable hardware suppliers.
Data processing automation
We automate each step of collecting, filtering, and analyzing data from smart devices.
- Architecting a big data solution.
- Setting up big data governance procedures (big data filtering, quality assurance, security, etc.).
- Developing machine learning models.
- Visualizing data insights in pre-defined dashboards.
IoT project planning
We create a realistic understanding of the project scope.
- Estimating the project time and budget.
- Defining the skills and knowledge needed for project implementation.
- Identifying possible project risks (budget changes, emergency expansion of the project scope, resistance in team adoption of new processes, more).
- Elaborating a data security strategy.
We can take over your entire IoT project.
- Placing IoT devices (sensors) to monitor the required conditions (of objects or environment).
- Setting up an IoT gateway to transport the collected data to a data storage.
- Building a data storage (e.g., a big data lake and DWH).
- Setting algorithms for control applications to send commands to actuators.
- Designing user application(s) to control the performance of smart things and get convenient analytics results.
- Security testing.
Data-Driven Solutions We Created
What Customers Say About Us
We have been working with ScienceSoft for 6 years and they have become our long-term technology partner. ScienceSoft professional and knowledgeable staff has the willingness to endeavor best efforts to ensure project success. Every aspect of development is always handled with consideration and care. What we are especially impressed with is the high quality of the deliverables.
bioAffinity Technologies hired ScienceSoft to help in the development of its automated data analysis software for detection of lung cancer using flow cytometry. In addition to the solid technical expertise shown by ScienceSoft, its developers demonstrated a profound understanding of laboratory software specifics and integrations. I am particularly impressed by the cooperative nature of ScienceSoft’s team.
Two years ago, we commissioned ScienceSoft to audit and upgrade our partially developed AI-based software for clay pigeon shooting tracking. We are satisfied with our cooperation with ScienceSoft and their skilled development team, which smoothly fit into our project. In case of further system evolution, we’ll continue our collaboration and won’t hesitate to recommend ScienceSoft as a reliable development partner.
