From Sensor To Decision
Zero46 builds sensor data platforms for water, energy, and city operations. The platforms are vendor-neutral and NIS2-ready. We build them, then your team owns them.
Why connected infrastructure stalls.
The pattern is the same in water, energy, buildings, and city streets. Each device sends data. The estate still cannot answer a simple question.
We connect everything to one pipeline, from device to decision. The same architecture works in every industry.
Six suppliers means six logins, six formats, and six exports. The data exists, but no system collects it in one place.
The vendor owns the data model, the integrations, and the history. An exit costs more than another year of fees.
NIS2 puts connected infrastructure in scope. An estate that is spread across portals and spreadsheets cannot show compliance.
You own everything we build.
We decide three things on day one, in writing: who owns the code, who reads the data, and how you get everything back.
The code is yours.
You get one codebase in your repository. Nothing is hidden.
The data is yours.
The data stays in your storage, with your keys and your retention rules.
The architecture is yours.
We document each decision in plain language.
Replaceable on purpose.
Operate it yourself, or give it to another supplier.
Deploy where you want.
On-premises, in a sovereign cloud, in the EU, or on a hyperscaler.
Built for the regulation.
The design includes NIS2, DORA, and CRA from day one.
What we build.
We do not resell, and we do not sell licenses. We design, connect, and operate sensor platforms with your team. Then we give the platform to you. Most projects use two or three of these services.
IoT architecture & strategy
We select the stack for the next five years.
- Target architecture and data model
- Vendor and platform review
- Documented decision log
- A costed roadmap
you must soon commit to a platform, or you inherited one that you do not trust.
Sensors & edge integration
We move data from the device to the network, from LoRaWAN to wired lines. The pipeline continues when the signal drops.
- LoRaWAN networks, gateways, and provisioning
- Protocol integration across mixed hardware
- Normalization to one format
- Store-and-forward for dropouts
the readings come from mixed hardware and arrive late, incomplete, or not at all.
Data platform
We build time-series storage, event routing, and clean APIs. The platform scales with your estate.
- Time-series storage that scales
- Event routing and rules
- Documented, versioned APIs
- Retention and access controls
your data sits in six portals and needs one source of truth.
Run & operate
We operate the dashboards, the alerts, and the on-call with you. Then we give the operation to your team.
- Dashboards and alerting
- On-call and runbooks
- SLOs and incident response
- A handover plan with a date
the platform is in production, and your team must own the uptime.
Portals & dashboards
We build the screens that your team opens every morning. Each role gets its own view.
- Role-based portals
- Operational dashboards
- Reports and exports
- Accessible, responsive UI
different teams need different views of the same data.
We get no commission from AWS, Azure, or any vendor. Our advice is not connected to sales.
There is no proprietary runtime, no private protocol, and no embedded license. You can leave with everything.
We document the code, the data, the history, and the architecture. They are yours from day one.
Every project has a handover date from the start. We leave when your team is ready.
We build inside the stack that you have, or we design the stack that you do not have. You own the result either way.

IoT for water, energy, smart buildings, and connected care.
We work with public bodies and with the operators around them. The fragmentation and the regulation are the same. The answer is the same: a platform that you own.
live · Swedish municipalityOne sensor platform for the systems that the city operates. The city owns it.
For the public sectorWater & wastewater
WalteroMeter fleets and network data must continue to flow. We build the full path from LoRaWAN to dashboards, with no vendor lock.
Energy & district heating
OmexomGrid and heat data go from the substation to the screen, in one platform that your operators own.
Housing & buildings
AkeliusWe collect energy and climate data across the portfolio. The numbers show where to act.
Connected care
CareiumWe build alarm and monitoring systems that do not stop. This data cannot be late.
NIS2 is in force. Your IoT estate is in scope.
We design and build platforms that can show compliance. This includes architecture, data ownership, vendor dependencies, isolation, observability, and security posture. We document everything from day one.
Start where you are.
Every engagement has a clear output, a set price, and a named end. A full build runs through Discover, Design, Build, and Operate in 3 to 9 months.
Architecture review
1 weekIf you must soon commit to a platform or vendor, we review it before you sign. You get a written verdict.
About architecture reviewDiscovery
2 weeksWe examine what you have, find the real problem, and give you a plan with a number on it.
Procurement requirements support
We shape the requirements before you tender, so you buy what you need. This works under Swedish LOU or any EU procurement framework.
About procurement requirements supportFractional IoT architect
monthlyA senior architect on retainer for design reviews, vendor calls, and roadmap work, without a full headcount.
The complete platform, built with your team.
One engagement covers the whole path, from the first interview to a platform in production. Each stage has a fixed scope and a fixed price. The code goes into your repository from the first sprint, and the handover date is set before we start.
We map your estate and decide together what to build.
Architecture and data model, documented and owned by you.
Built with your team, in one codebase, in your repo.
Run together, then handed over on the set date.
Book a first call.
Tell us where you stand in a 30-minute call. If there is a basis for an engagement, we come back with a proposal for scope and setup.
Small by design.
Zero46 is a small firm of senior people in Malmö, Sweden. You work with the architect directly, with no handoffs and no account team.
For eight years we built meter fleets, alarm systems, and data platforms. This experience shaped how Zero46 works. The architect who scopes your project also builds it. When a project needs more people, a specialist network helps. The architect stays.
We also work on the buyer side: Zero46 writes the security and NIS2 requirements for public procurement documents.
If it must survive production, we want to hear about it.
