About Spotcom
Specialists in Operational Technology Radio Communications
Spotcom Ltd is a UK-based specialist in radio communications used within operational technology (OT) environments. We work with organisations that rely on radio links to monitor, control, and protect critical infrastructure — where availability, integrity, and long-term reliability matter.
For over two decades, Spotcom has designed, deployed, and supported industrial radio systems across a wide range of sectors, including water, energy, transport, manufacturing, and safety-critical environments. Our work spans both modern OT deployments and long-standing legacy systems that continue to play a vital operational role.
An OT-first approach
Radio communications are often treated as peripheral infrastructure. In reality, they are frequently a core part of the OT control loop — carrying commands and telemetry that directly influence physical processes.
Spotcom approaches radio systems as operational dependencies, not just wireless links. This perspective underpins how we design, assess, and support radio communications throughout their lifecycle, from initial architecture and deployment through to long-term operation and assurance.
Experience grounded in real-world operations
Our team brings deep practical experience across a diverse range of environments, from high-profile and highly regulated sites to remote and unmanned locations. Past projects have supported applications including:
-
Water and wastewater treatment and distribution
-
Energy generation and distribution
-
Rail and transport infrastructure
-
Industrial automation and manufacturing
-
Safety and emergency systems
-
Secure and restricted operational sites
-
This breadth of experience allows us to understand not only how radio systems work, but how they are used, maintained, and relied upon in day-to-day operations.
Independent by design
Spotcom is not a generalist systems integrator or a volume reseller. We work with proven industrial radio technologies and long-term partners, but our role is to provide informed, independent expertise focused on operational suitability, resilience, and risk.
This independence allows us to support asset owners, operators, and integrators with clear, evidence-based advice — particularly where legacy systems, long lifecycles, or regulatory scrutiny are involved.
Supporting assurance, not just deployment
As OT environments evolve — incorporating greater connectivity, automation, and autonomy — the role of communications assurance becomes increasingly important.
Spotcom supports organisations not only in deploying radio systems, but in understanding and documenting how those systems behave, what risks they introduce, and how they align with wider OT cybersecurity and governance frameworks. This includes the development and application of assurance approaches such as SIR Certification, focused specifically on industrial radio communications.
A long-term partner
Spotcom remains deliberately focused in scope. We believe that depth of expertise, continuity of support, and long-term relationships matter more than scale.
Whether supporting a single remote telemetry link or a complex, distributed OT radio network, our objective is the same: to help organisations operate critical systems with confidence in the communications they depend on.
