Checkit Announces IoT Partnership With Norwegian Tech Company Disruptive Technologies to Integrate World’s Smallest Sensors Into Smart Buildings

Checkit, the leader in intelligent operations technology for deskless workforces, today announced that it has entered into a strategic partnership to integrate Disruptive Technologies’ sensor hardware into its intelligent operations platform.

The Checkit platform enables healthcare, hospitality and retail organisations to digitise their deskless operations, and to capture and analyse data to drive continuous improvement, productivity, cost reduction and compliance. Using digital workflows and sensors, Checkit provides business leaders with real-time insight into the activity of their staff, equipment and buildings.

Checkit’s partnership with Disruptive Technologies will enable the Checkit platform to harness the power of the world’s smallest wireless IoT sensors by using the data to capture critical insights about building facilities, equipment and assets. The partnership expands the scope of Checkit’s smart buildings capabilities, beginning with the roll-out of automated legionella monitoring and prevention.

The Checkit platform and IoT ecosystem provide leaders with real-time visibility over buildings and infrastructure no matter where they are. Data-driven insights alert frontline personnel to safety and efficiency problems before they occur, enabling cost savings, smarter allocation of engineering resources and greater confidence.

“The Checkit platform provides an unrivalled end-to-end solution for business leaders looking to solve their operational challenges. Integrating additional IoT sensors, such as those from Disruptive Technologies, into our platform will provide business leaders with even more opportunities to quickly deploy and scale operational insight in a secure and trusted environment,” said Kit Kyte, CEO of Checkit. “We’re thrilled to partner with Disruptive Technologies, and to jointly modernise deskless operations through the use of automated workflows, sensors and data analytics.”

“We bring the world's smallest wireless sensors and turn any indoor space into a smart space,” said Bengt Johannes Lundberg, CEO of Disruptive Technologies. “Partnering with an intelligent operations provider like Checkit supports our strategy of giving customers access to the data they need to make more safe, smart and sustainable operations.

Checkit - Making good progress towards profitability

Checkit reported annual recurring revenue (ARR) growth of 24% y-o-y in H124, with more than half of the growth from upsells and cross-sells to its existing customer base. Revenue was 19% higher y-o-y and EBITDA losses nearly halved y-o-y. We have upgraded our FY24 EBITDA forecast on better gross margins and operating efficiencies. Recent contract wins provide upsell potential and the recent John Lewis contract renewal highlights the stickiness of the technology.
