Blockbax and VTM Groep join forces to empower a smarter way of working
Blockbax and VTM Groep have joined forces to offer organizations a powerful end-to-end solution combining smart sensors, seamless connectivity, and expert implementation. By uniting VTM’s hands-on expertise with our AI-powered platform for data-driven asset management, we enable customers to accelerate their digital transformation from fast, reliable sensor deployment to continuous improvement and a smarter, more efficient way of working.
Across buildings, utilities, industry, infrastructure and horticulture, organisations want to work smarter with reliable live data. But that requires more than technology alone. It calls for the right hardware, stable connectivity, practical domain knowledge and expert guidance throughout the entire process. This combination is essential for organisations aiming to improve efficiency, reduce downtime and optimise asset performance.
"Organisations increasingly want decisions based on reliable data, not intuition. Our partnership with VTM Groep directly addresses that need. Together we provide real-time insights that support energy efficiency, predictive maintenance and smarter operations. By combining the scalability of the Blockbax platform with VTM’s deep expertise in sensor technology, connectivity and implementation services, we enable organisations to accelerate their digital journey and operate more efficiently."
VTM’s smart solutions in practise
The VTM team supports every phase, from selecting the right sensors and connectivity approach to configuration, rollout, and integration into existing processes. Organisations can start quickly with ready-made, proven insights or opt for a tailored setup for unique asset situations. In both cases, VTM ensures customers are supported from the first step to full-scale operations. This approach shortens implementation time and improves data reliability for operational teams.
Examples include Dr. Oetker, where continuous monitoring of temperature, humidity and air pressure keeps air quality stable and prevents powder clumping.
At Schouten Techniek, climate data is unified to enable proactive building management across their portfolio.
And at the Rijksmuseum, VTM, together with KPN, implemented an end-to-end solution that enhances the experience of 2.7 million visitors each year using infrared sensor data.
"Selecting the right technology is essential to create a foundation for smarter work and automation. Because the Blockbax platform is open and flexible, we can deliver a reliable, data-driven base that helps our customers improve performance and scale with confidence. It integrates seamlessly with existing systems, making it easier for organisations to expand without complexity"
Across other customers - from sports facilities to smart energy environments - teams benefit from clear, actionable insights without needing to manage the underlying technology. This includes early anomaly detection, real-time monitoring and improved operational intelligence. From the first sensor to full-scale optimisation, the entire chain is supported.
