IoT Development
Connect the physical side of your operation
What this involves
How we approach iot development at Oasis Hive.
The physical world holds information that never reaches a decision maker. We build the device, gateway and dashboard layers that change that.
Sensors, gateways and dashboards that turn equipment and sites into live data.
What we do
Device and firmware
Sensor integration and firmware that survives unreliable power and connectivity.
Connectivity and gateways
Cellular, LoRaWAN and Wi-Fi gateways with buffering so data survives outages.
Ingestion and device management
Scalable pipelines, device registries and over-the-air firmware updates.
Monitoring and alerting
Live dashboards and threshold alerts routed to the people who can respond.
What you end up with
- Live visibility of assets that were previously manual
- Alerts before a failure becomes an outage
- Historical data for maintenance and efficiency planning
- A platform that grows as you add sites and devices
Tools and technologies
We choose per project rather than by habit. These are the ones we most often reach for here.
Questions about this service
Delivered properly
One team from scoping through to support
The people who design the system are the people who answer for it in production, so nothing falls between suppliers.
Proof
Where we have done this
Logistics
Kampala Logistics · 2024
Seeing every truck, every kilometre, in real time
Telemetry, fuel monitoring and route analytics across a 140-vehicle fleet, with alerts that fire before a problem becomes a breakdown.
Utilities
Rift Valley Energy · 2025
Metering data that finally reached the people who needed it
A smart metering platform ingesting 2.4 million readings a day, with theft detection and outage alerts built on top.
How the work runs
Six steps, no surprises
Step 01
Listen and map
We interview the people doing the work, review the systems in play and write down how things actually flow.
Step 02
Design the solution
We propose what to build first, what to leave alone, what it will cost and what we are assuming. Options come with trade-offs.
Step 03
Build in increments
Working software every two weeks, demonstrated against real data. You can redirect early while changes are still cheap.
Step 04
Verify and secure
Automated tests, security review and load checks run throughout, not at the end, so findings are fixed while the context is fresh.
Step 05
Launch with support
We plan the cutover with you, migrate data carefully, train your team and stay close through the first weeks in production.
Step 06
Run and improve
Monitoring, support and a regular review of what to improve next. Maintained systems stay valuable.
