Enterprise Access Control & IoT Security Hub

Our Client’s Backstory

Our client is a leading provider of smart access solutions, specializing in video intercoms and keyless entry systems for residential and private use. Following significant success in the residential market, the company sought to pivot toward large-scale commercial real estate. To achieve this, they required a robust software ecosystem that could function as a "virtual doorman" and security hub, managing the high-volume traffic patterns of commercial office buildings and integrated parking facilities.

The Challenges

Transitioning from residential to commercial access control required a shift in both architectural stability and feature sets. Key challenges included:

Market Pivot Strategy: Conducting deep product discovery to adapt a residential system for the mission-critical requirements of large-scale commercial property management.
IoT Ecosystem Integration: Engineering seamless communication between the mobile application and a diverse array of third-party IoT hardware, including video intercoms and automated parking barriers.
High-Circulation Reliability: Designing a system capable of handling the high daily volume of visitors, employees, and vehicles inherent in commercial real estate.
Multi-Tenant White-Labeling: Architecting a flexible platform that allows B2B partners to rebrand and customize the application for their own property portfolios.

Solutions

Klika was engaged as the strategic technical partner to design and engineer a cross-platform mobile solution. Our solution included:
