New global IoT solutions collaboration

1 min read

Arrow Electronics has partnered with Microshare Inc. to provide Internet of Things (IoT) solutions at scale to global enterprise customers.

Arrow and Microshare will offer joint IoT solutions to clients in facilities management, transportation, infrastructure and healthcare. Arrow’s worldwide distribution and support capabilities will be combined with Microshare’s preconfigured, fit-for-purpose solutions.

“Microshare has the vision and capacity to scale IoT and manage the resulting torrents of data for global portfolios,” said Kristin Russell, president of Arrow`s global services business. “Their growing portfolio enhances the options we offer to the market.”

Ron Rock, Microshare CEO and co-founder, added, “The current landscape, particularly in commercial real estate, is crowded with one-off point solutions that do not scale easily and therefore leave a lot of the ROI on the table. Our agreement with Arrow allows us to provide seamless delivery for a growing portfolio of solutions that enable enterprise clients to execute their IoT strategy at their own pace.”

Microshare’s pre-configured solution kits include sensors, LoRaWAN network connectivity, dashboards, alerts, and simple step-by-step instructions that can be installed by non-technical personnel to start producing data on “day one.”

The company say their collaboration will deliver complete services, from sourcing solution components, packaging and deploying to customers, providing installation and managing warranty, repair and returns.
