The challenge

The problem

Most expensive problems in connected products are decided in the first months: the SoC, the OS, the update strategy, the security model and where logic lives. They surface a year later as missed launch dates, unfixable field bugs or a BOM that cannot be cut.

Platform chosen for the prototype

The SoC and OS that got the demo working are rarely the ones that hit cost, power and lifecycle targets at volume.

No update or security model

OTA, provisioning and key management are left for later, when changing them means new hardware.

Unclear device, edge and cloud split

Logic ends up in the wrong place, making the fleet expensive to run and hard to change.

What we do

Architecture report with diagrams, risk register, decision log and a costed roadmap. Read-out session with your engineering leads.

Review of hardware platform, software stack, connectivity and cloud split

Update, provisioning and security model assessment

Scalability review: what breaks at 1,000, 10,000 and 100,000 devices

Prioritised risk register with concrete fixes

Phased roadmap from current state to production

Hardware/Software Partitioning

Decide what runs on the MCU, the application processor, an FPGA or the cloud, so the product meets real-time, power and cost targets.

How we work

Our Engineering Process

A short, structured engagement that ends in decisions you can act on.
