Device Management

A single connected device is easy. Ten thousand of them, across three companies and several customers, is an operations problem. Device Management holds fleet identity, secure onboarding, certificate lifecycle, configuration and health reporting for everything the group deploys.

What it does

Inside the platform

01

Identity & provisioning

Per-device identity issued at manufacture, with secure onboarding that does not depend on a shared secret in a config file.

02

Certificate lifecycle

Issue, rotate and revoke device credentials across a fleet without a truck roll.

03

Configuration & inventory

What is deployed, where, running which firmware and configuration — answerable without asking a field engineer.

04

Health & diagnostics

Device health reporting and remote diagnostics, so a failure is characterised before anyone drives to site.

How it fits together

The shape of the work

Device to dashboard — and back again

Connected products fail at the seams. The return path — commands and over-the-air updates — is designed at the same time as the forward path, not bolted on after the first fleet ships.

Who builds on it

Used across the group

  • Every division with deployed hardware

Ownership

A shared platform. It has no natural home in any single unit, so the group funds it centrally and the shared engineering bench maintains it. Every company and division draws on the same version.

How we decide what is shared

Building something that needs Device Management?

Tell us the constraints and we will come back with how this platform would carry them — or say plainly if it would not.
