THE CHALLENGE

Incorporated in 2009, Bit Stew Systems worked tenaciously to establish itself as a global leader in the burgeoning Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) space by bringing their data integration platform to market. As the Canadian start-up gained global traction, they were resource challenged in terms of the capabilities required to meet market growth and new customer needs.

THE SOLUTION

Bit Stew Systems Co-Founders Kevin Collins, CEO, and Alex Clark, Chief Software Architect, engaged OSI Digital in the early days of the start-up to become the key solution provider for product engineering and delivery services. OSI was instrumental in the success of Bit Stew based on our deep software engineering and domain knowledge and our understanding of their customers’ businesses and the industries they specialized in. Bit Stew drew from all of OSI’s key practice areas and our team became a critical and strategic extension of the Bit Stew bench which rapidly accelerated the company’s meteoric rise in the global industrial IoT market.

“We engaged OSI Digital in the early days of our start-up as a key solution provider for product engineering and delivery services for our IIoT platform. OSI became a critical and strategic extension of our team which accelerated our company’s growth and ultimate success in market.”
