HAZARDMON
Cloud-based hazard monitoring tool providing status notifications and data logging for bucket elevators and conveyors
Background
4B Braime Components is an industry leader in developing elevator components and IoT solutions for agricultural facilities’ safety.
Hazardmon is fully integrated with 4B hardware, designed to protect workers’ lives by mitigating the risk of explosions in agricultural facilities.
Hazardmon differentiates 4B from the competition and is an important part of the 4B customer acquisition strategy.
Challenge

4B was racing against the clock and searching for a product development partner to maintain the product and ensure continuity of the 4B business.

Unicsoft was able to:
