Penguin Location Services Launches Unified Indoor IoT Platform for Enterprise Digital Transformation
In June 2015, Penguin Location Services announced a significant milestone in its R&D and product development efforts: the successful release of a unified Indoor Location-Based IoT platform designed to transform enterprise operations.
This breakthrough marks a major step toward enabling enterprise digital transformation, providing organizations with advanced tools for tracking assets and people, digitizing processes, and unlocking the power of indoor positioning technology.
A Platform Designed for Mega Enterprises
The new indoor IoT platform was engineered to meet the needs of large-scale enterprises operating across complex environments such as hospitals, universities, industrial sites, and corporate campuses.
By combining indoor positioning, wayfinding, and real-time asset tracking into a single, cloud-managed platform, Penguin empowers organizations to streamline operations, improve safety, and enhance efficiency.
Subscription Model: Zero-CapEx, Zero IT Overhead
Unlike traditional IT deployments, Penguin offers its IoT platform on an annual subscription basis. This model provides:
-
Fully-managed hardware and cloud-based software – ensuring performance and availability without burdening internal IT teams.
-
Zero capital expenditure (CapEx) – enterprises avoid large upfront costs and instead benefit from predictable annual pricing.
-
No IT overhead – Penguin’s experts manage operations, monitoring, and updates, freeing internal teams to focus on strategic priorities.
This “as-a-service” model makes advanced indoor navigation and asset tracking accessible even for organizations with limited IT resources.
Customizable Modules for Every Enterprise
The unified IoT platform offers a modular design, enabling clients to tailor deployments based on their specific business requirements. Available modules include:
-
Attendance Tracking – Automating staff attendance and compliance reporting.
