Collaborate with Tigertek: Developing IoT Solutions That Drive Innovation

​

At Tigertek Communications, we partner with forward-thinking companies ready to explore the transformative potential of Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Whether you're in manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, security, hospitality, or environmental monitoring, your business could benefit from integrated sensor technologies that improve data capture, efficiency, and outcomes.

​

Why Tigertek?

We provide IoT data connectivity and wireless solutions through our own LPWAN (Low Power Wide Area Network) infrastructure, cloud servers, and bespoke software. This means we can rapidly deploy solutions that are resilient, scalable, and designed for your unique operational environment.

 

Our clients already include:
Deloitte, Department of Education, SustainIQ, carbonFit, Coastways, Connected Care Solutions, Foodsafe Systems, NIE, and Technidrive.

​

We specialise in deploying LoRaWAN-based solutions across a wide range of physical landscapes – from inner cities and industrial estates to rural and coastal regions – giving us in-depth practical experience in the application of radio-based IoT connectivity.

​

Sector Expertise

We currently support clients in sectors including:

  • Bio-sciences and healthcare

  • Hospitality and catering

  • Storage, logistics and facilities management

  • Security systems and environmental monitoring

 

We work closely with your team to identify challenges where sensor-driven solutions can deliver measurable results – from reduced maintenance costs and better energy management to improved service reporting and regulatory compliance.

 

The Opportunity: Tailored R&D Projects

Your business may be ideally placed to access R&D tax incentives for developing custom IoT solutions. This presents a smart way to:

  • Innovate at zero net cost

  • Retain full ownership of the IP

  • Support ISO and sustainability credentials

  • Create centralised dashboards for data insights

  • Improve your ability to win tenders and demonstrate impact

Tigertek can act as your IoT subcontractor, working within a recognised R&D framework to develop bespoke sensors and connected systems for your operations.
