Intro & architecture walkthrough
1 hour. We review your product context, current architecture, device constraints, backend setup, update process, and known pain points.
Fixed-price audit
IoT Architecture Risk Audit
Find the weak points in your connected product before they become expensive in production.
Most IoT systems work in the lab. The real problems appear later: failed remote upgrades, unreliable connectivity, battery drain, fragile device provisioning, MQTT scaling issues, unclear security responsibilities, or architecture decisions that become hard to change once devices are deployed.
The IoT Architecture Risk Audit is a short, fixed-price review designed for teams with a connected product already deployed, in pilot, or close to production.
You get an external expert view on your architecture, with concrete recommendations you can act on immediately.
Fixed price
€2,400
excl. VAT
Best value when your product already works, but you need confidence that it will still work at scale, in the field, and over time.
- 3 x 1-hour remote meetings.
- Architecture and document review.
- Written audit report.
- Prioritized technical recommendations.
- Follow-up action plan.
What we review
Where IoT systems usually create long-term risk
The audit focuses on device-side architecture, remote upgrade strategy, bootloader and rollback mechanisms, connectivity choices, protocol usage, telemetry and command flows, provisioning, fleet operations, security update readiness, cloud/backend architecture, and scalability bottlenecks.
Format
Lightweight by design
The audit is designed to produce value quickly, without turning into a large consulting project.
First conclusions & feedback
1 hour. I share the main findings early: risks, unclear areas, likely failure modes, and first recommendations. This gives your team a chance to challenge or complete the analysis before the final document.
Final delivery & next-step recommendations
1 hour. We review the final audit document together and prioritize what to fix first.
Between the meetings, I review the provided material and prepare the audit document.
Deliverables
A concise report focused on action
The goal is not to produce a theoretical architecture document. The goal is to tell you where the system is likely to hurt later, and what to do about it.
Who it is for
Useful when decisions are about to become hard to change
- You are building or operating a connected product.
- You are designing the architecture for a new connected device.
- You are preparing for larger deployments.
- You are experiencing remote upgrade, connectivity, battery, or scaling issues.
- You rely heavily on a managed IoT platform and wonder about lock-in.
- You are preparing for security, maintainability, or CRA-related requirements.
- You need to make architecture decisions before devices become hard to change.
