Context
The starting position
A multi-building operational campus with heavy machinery, dense metal structures and several hundred connected handheld and automation devices.
The challenge
Coverage gaps in high-metal areas caused repeated disconnections for handheld and automation devices.
Our approach
- Conducted an RF survey and mapped coverage requirements per operational zone
- Designed a private cellular architecture with on-site core for data locality
- Piloted in one zone, validated latency and handover, then scaled site-wide
- Handed over with monitoring dashboards and managed support
What we delivered
- Private cellular core and radio deployment
- SIM and device lifecycle management
- Traffic prioritisation for critical applications
- Monitoring and managed operations
Security and performance
- Private data path with no public transit
- Network segmentation per zone and device class
- Certificate-based device authentication
- Continuous performance monitoring
“Coverage stopped being a daily conversation. That alone changed how our operations teams plan their shifts.”
