Enterprise-grade custom mobile app
Modernizing an enterprise-grade solution to enable remote monitoring for better food safety and quality management.
SmartSense, a division of Digi International, empowers industries like healthcare, pharmaceuticals, food service, and retail with cutting-edge IoT solutions.
Their systems focus on remote monitoring through cellular sensors, digital checklists, and cloud analytics—facilitating safety and compliance.
SmartSense was operating on a legacy platform that no longer supported their growing business needs, impacting overall efficiency.
The existing interface was outdated, making it difficult for users to navigate the system effectively and get the seamless experience they expected.
The platform missed key food safety and quality management features, adding complexity to maintaining compliance and slowing operations.
After successfully collaborating on a previous asset installation app, SmartSense trusted us to create a next-gen remote monitoring solution. Their goal was to revolutionize temperature monitoring and quality management for food safety and operational excellence.
We assembled a team of 8 to design and build a custom mobile app, replacing their outdated system with modern technology. The new app seamlessly captures temperatures via Bluetooth sensor integration, automates quality checklists, and ensures compliance with food safety standards. SmartSense customers can access real-time data, make informed decisions, and optimize operations.
The intuitive, user-friendly interface enhances navigation and workflow, while React Native and a scalable backend ensure the solution can evolve with SmartSense’s needs. We continue to support SmartSense as they set new standards in food safety and quality management

“I don’t have to waste time micromanaging, and that’s because they’re asking the right questions. We are at a stage now where the quality far exceeds anything that I’ve ever done.”

“After launching the redesigned app we saw a reduction in churn of 30% along with a substantial increase in new users. They know when to push back and when to listen.”
