Among the five-stage model of digital transformation of enterprises, the SILOED stage of is the most critical stage. Through a large number of practical case analysis, we found that there can be three modes of digitally empowered innovation: intelligent hardware, intelligent services, and intelligent manufacturing.
This article will take PERT as an example to introduce how intelligent hardware enterprises provide users with scenario-based solutions by expanding product categories.
Company Profile
Based in India, Pert is an IoT company focused on the smart home segment. With a wide range of products such as smart plugs, IR blasters, locks, retrofit switches, Pert has created safe and convenient home automation solutions for their consumers. Currently, they’re working with top 10 consumer electrical and electronic brands in India, such as Wipro, Havells, Syska, and Polycab.
Request for Change
Pert was a reliable OEM partner for many domestic well-known brands when the idea of the Internet of Things took shape in India. However, Pert has never considered developing smart devices until Tuya Smart reached out to them and introduced its IoT development services. Pert saw an opportunity into a new business but wasn’t sure whether they should create a new brand on Tuya IoT Platform or upgrade their existing OEM products.
After evaluating Tuya Smart’s IoT platform and the potential market for smart devices, Pert started with one product. Using Tuya Smart’s MCU SDK, Pert has developed a smart device quickly and the product was reliable. This boosts their confidence in choosing Tuya Smart as their partner for IoT transformation.
Challenge and Solution
As driven by the need to provide their clients with a wide range of inter-connected products, Pert has started to apply Tuya Smart’s cloud development and OEM app, making them grab the opportunity faster than their competitors.
Now Pert has more than 12 products developed on Tuya IoT platform and provides safe, convenient, and affordable home automation solutions.
Success and Next Steps
One of the most successful cases is the smart water heater solution. Thanks to the robust and flexible platform, Pert managed to develop the entire solution in just three days: developed functions by just drag-and-drop, finalized UI design using Tuya Smart’s broad features and finished the whole firmware development.
Pert was surprised by the speedy delivery and satisfied with the result: 1. Temperature Setting of the Water Heater through App and touch interface; 2. Modes of water heating – MOP Mode, Regular, Pedicure, Sleep; 3. Countdown Timer; 4. Child Lock.
Pert expects that by partnering with Tuya Smart, they can explore avenues and entrance to new oversea markets.
