OT/IT convergence

Connect your machinesequipmentassets
to your IT on open hardware you own.

Melqart engineers industrial connectivity on open-Linux hardware. Real-time machine data flows to your cloud, ERP, and CMMS with no vendor lock-in.

Services

How we build: no lock-in, no hidden costs.

Whether you're managing 1,400 mixed-fleet assets, retrofitting heavy machinery, or designing telemetry for production-line OEMs, our engagements are structured to give you complete operational independence.

01 · Consulting

Strategic consulting & discovery.

Should you build this, and if so, what's the clear path to ROI?

We analyse your existing telemetry stack, run feasibility studies, and deliver a comprehensive architecture design document. The artefact is yours to keep, whether you build it with us or not.

02 · Implementation

End-to-end implementation.

Powered by the OWA open Linux gateway family.

A fully integrated system: ruggedised hardware, custom embedded software, secure cloud brokers, and unified operational views. Every deployment uses preconfigured, git-versioned Linux images with secure OTA management. You own the gateway and every line of code that runs on it.

03 · Operation

Managed operations.

Managed operations, or a full handover to your team.

Optional managed operations backed by a transparent, enterprise-grade SLA. With quarterly checkpoints, you can transition operations fully in-house at any time, with no clawback and no licensing surprises.

Why engage with us

Added value baked into every engagement.

Four commitments we build into every engagement, designed to remove the friction, the surprises, and the lock-in.

Open

Open stack, end to end.

Open Linux gateways, open-core software, open data formats.

Owasys-class hardware, Linux, Yocto, Mosquitto, Kafka, TimescaleDB, Grafana. No proprietary lock-in at any layer between machine and database.

Yours

Customer-owned IP.

Source code, schematics, and machine data belong to you.

Every engagement ends with git-versioned source code, hardware schematics, production access credentials, runbooks, and the accumulated machine data. The system runs without us.

24/7

Customer support with fast response.

Always-on engineering support, with response times measured in minutes.

Round-the-clock support from the engineers who built your system, not a tier-1 call centre. Transparent SLAs, fast response on incidents, and direct access to the team that knows your stack.

Clear

Cost transparency.

Fixed-scope work, written budgets, no licensing surprises.

Every engagement starts with a written budget, and discovery is bounded by a clear go/no-go decision. There is no per-asset licensing, no clawback, and no per-feature upsell: the price you agree to is the price you pay.

Case studies

Hardware & ecosystem

OWA open Linux gateways.
Open-core software stack.

Owasys is our authorised hardware partner, supplying production-grade OWA gateways engineered for harsh industrial environments.
The software path is industry-standard open core: Linux, Yocto, Mosquitto, Kafka, TimescaleDB, Grafana.
No proprietary lock-in at any layer.

How it works

Three steps from idea to running system.

Bounded engagements, written deliverables, and an explicit go/no-go at every gate.

  1. Discovery

    We work with your team to audit the existing stack and identify integration risks. The outcome is a feasibility report and a written architecture design, yours to keep, whether or not we build the system.

  2. Planning

    We translate the design into a delivery plan: bill of materials, work packages, milestones, budget, and an explicit go/no-go gate. Quarterly checkpoints, transparent budget, no surprises.

  3. Execution

    We build, integrate, and roll out, ruggedised gateways, custom embedded software, secure brokers, and operational views. At handover, you keep the source, the schematics, the credentials, and the data.
