Special Deployment
Clean Room
Deployments in cleanroom and FOD-sensitive environments require precision, speed, and strict contamination control. FOD (Foreign Object Debris) refers to any unwanted materials—such as dust, fibers, or loose hardware—that can compromise product integrity or equipment performance. Thinaer’s turnkey IoT platform is engineered for these high-compliance settings, enabling hardware to be installed quickly—often within hours—using cleanroom-approved protocols.
Our team ensures every deployment meets cleanroom classification standards, minimizing disruption while maintaining compliance. Whether in aerospace, defense, or advanced manufacturing, Thinaer delivers secure, reliable deployment without compromising environmental integrity.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Our team follows industry-standard safety protocols, utilizing PPE to ensure a safe working environment.
Scissor Lift Certified
Certified professionals for high-elevation installations, ensuring safe and precise deployment in elevated areas.
Classified Installations
Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF)
Expert installation services for secure environments requiring compliance with classified information handling standards.
Digital Transformation Training
Hardware and Software Training
Comprehensive training sessions to equip your team with the knowledge needed to operate and maintain Sonar.
Help Center
Around-the-clock access to essential resources, including user guides, release notes, API documentation, and more. Supporting smooth system adoption, efficient troubleshooting and ongoing learning.
Methodology Kit
Best practices, documentation, and guidelines to support efficient system management and adoption.

What factors can affect the deployment timeline?
Several variables can influence timelines:
-
Scope & Scale – Number of gateways, sensors, and asset tags.
-
Hardware Requirements – Conduit, RFID installations, and materials.
-
Site Conditions – Ceiling height, steel beams, extreme temperatures, etc.
-
Infrastructure Readiness – Network access, IT and power availability.
-
Customer Dependencies – Timely floorplans, stakeholder availability, cloud setup.
-
Change Orders – Mid-project scope changes.
