Case Studies

Case Study 1: U.S. – Food Processing Facility Access Control Overhaul

A national food processing company sought a robust system to manage employee access across multiple plants. IoTTechExperts deployed RFID-enabled access control panels integrated with biometric verification and time-based access scheduling. The solution improved compliance with FSMA requirements and reduced unauthorized entries by 83% within three months.

Case Study 2: U.S. – Secure Entry System for Utility Infrastructure

An energy provider operating across several U.S. states partnered with IoTTechExperts to implement a scalable access control solution. Our team integrated cloud-based access management tools with real-time alerts and emergency override protocols, allowing for rapid lockdown in critical zones and boosting NERC-CIP compliance.

Case Study 3: Canada – Pharmaceutical R&D Facility Access Control

A leading pharmaceutical company in Ontario needed to tightly regulate entry to cleanrooms and R&D labs. IoTTechExperts installed biometric door systems with role-based access tied to their HR platform. This eliminated manual key-card issuance, enhanced traceability, and streamlined audit preparation under Health Canada guidelines.
