Work delivered by the Linkosys engineering team, described by the problem it solved and how it was approached.

Delivered work

Engagements and what they solved

Manufacturing

Product traceability and production management

Challenge
Production and supply records were held in systems that could not be reconciled, so a unit could not be traced back through its production history.
Approach
Built a shared traceability record spanning production and distribution events, with each step written once and readable by every downstream system.
Solution
A production management and traceability platform recording genealogy from input materials through to distributed product.
  • Distributed ledger
  • Systems integration
  • Web application

Operations

Online warehouse management system

Challenge
Stock movement, locations and fulfilment status were tracked manually, leaving inventory accurate only as of the last count.
Approach
Modelled the real warehouse process first — receiving, put-away, picking, dispatch — then built to it rather than to a generic inventory template.
Solution
A browser-based warehouse management system covering inventory, locations, movement and order fulfilment.
  • Web application
  • Relational database
  • Role-based access

Applied AI

Voice-driven AI reservations and ordering

Challenge
Orders and reservations arrived by phone and had to be transcribed by staff, which capped throughput at busy periods.
Approach
Applied speech recognition and intent handling to the narrow, high-volume part of the conversation, leaving staff to handle exceptions.
Solution
A mobile application taking spoken reservations and orders and passing structured records to the operator.
  • Speech recognition
  • Natural language processing
  • Mobile application

Applied AI

Street vehicle identification

Challenge
Identifying a vehicle from a street photograph required manual lookup against reference sources.
Approach
Trained and packaged an image classification model against vehicle imagery, with the inference path sized to run from a phone.
Solution
A mobile application returning vehicle identification from a camera image.
  • Computer vision
  • Image classification
  • Mobile application

Civic technology

Smart parking locator

Challenge
Drivers had no current view of parking availability, adding circulation time and congestion.
Approach
Combined location services with availability data and presented the result as a single map view rather than a list of sources.
Solution
A mobile application surfacing nearby parking availability and location guidance.
  • Mobile application
  • Geolocation
  • Mapping services

Public sector

COVID-19 community assistance platform

Challenge
Assistance requests and offers of help were scattered across channels during a period when response time mattered.
Approach
Built a single intake and coordination point that could be stood up quickly and operated by non-technical staff.
Solution
A public web platform coordinating community assistance requests and volunteer response.
  • Web application
  • Content management
  • Public-facing forms

On metrics and client names

We publish performance figures and client names only where the client has approved them, which is why you will not find percentage improvements or logos attached to the work above.
