Projects examples
ALCIOM brought its technological expertise to more than 100 start-ups and small companies, but also to tier one palyers such as BOUYGUES TELECOM, LYONNAISE DES EAUX / SUEZ, SCHLUMBERGER, ORANGE LABS and CEA . You will find hereunder some examples of our interventions :
- For an automotive supplier : Technological analysis of an in-situ measurement device, and recommendations for the improvement of its intrinsic performances and thermal stability.
- For a long range smart metering system : Benchmark of existing technologies, architectural design of a flexible and innovative solution, mockup, antenna design and optimisation, project management assistance for a formal RfQ and project consultancy up to field validation.
- For a paper-less payment startup : technologic brainstorming and feasibility study for a highly innovative technologic solution.
- For a telecommunication company : Comparative study of PLC technologies and strategic recommendations
ALCIOM also brings its technological expertise through technical seminars and also through our publications.
