Just a few years ago, when all random projections were made as to how IoT could revolutionize the world in the future, nobody ever thought IoT would become as ubiquitous as it is today. As advancements in technologies and communications took a new leap in recent times, applications of IoT outstretched to a multitude of industries at an unimaginable pace. Companies, institutions, and governments across the globe are ceaselessly trying to come up with novel innovations so that they can explore the uncharted territories of IoT. Leading the game in this innovation race is the Thailand-based Information & Technology company, Things on Net (TON).

With a service network in over 77 provinces in Thailand, the company’s services include consulting, strategic planning, research and development, and designing sensor devices. Moreover, the company also offers IoT-as-a-Service, which allows the customers to free themselves from the burden of CAPEX. TON is the exclusive Sigfox operator in Thailand that delivers dedicated IoT low-power wireless networks or LPWAN for organizations globally in other 72 countries. “We are proud to say that we are the only full stack provider of IoT solutions with state-of-the-art technologies in Thailand,” says Pavin Vorapruck, CEO of the company.

As a pioneer and leader in business transformation in Thailand, TON provides cost-efficient IoT solutions to its clients that are designed to optimize operational processes and enhance customer experience.Alongside, to ensure the quality of the products and solutions it builds, the company conducts Proof of Concept (POC) and Proof of Value (POV) before launch or implementation.

This system helps duty staff locate and replace broken bulbs, resulting in savings of up to 20 percent of maintenance costs. In addition, the online monitoring of electric power consumption gives duty staff the transparency required to manage and optimize power usage that helps them cut power usage by up to 30 percent.
