Your Private PTT Network,
On Your Terms
The Ashlar Group designs, deploys, and manages private Push-to-Talk over Cellular networks for two-way radio dealers and enterprise operators. Fixed-fee engagement, transparent monthly managed services, and infrastructure you own outright.
What We Do
From initial discovery through live deployment and long-term managed services, we handle every layer of your private PoC network.
We model user capacity, infrastructure requirements, and total cost of ownership before any commitment. No surprises at deployment time.
For dealers adding PoC to their portfolio: margins, pricing strategy, recurring revenue projections, and a complete business case.
Full deployment into geo-redundant US data centers. Cloud and on-premises options also available. You own the infrastructure and all vendor relationships.
Monthly per-user managed services: performance monitoring, patch and upgrade management, capacity scaling, backup and security management.
Carrier selection, multi-carrier strategy, bulk SIM provisioning, data pooling, and ongoing cost optimization so connectivity never becomes a bottleneck.
MDM platform implementation to keep deployed devices secure, compliant, and on-task from enrollment through end of life.
Direct manufacturer relationships for PoC radios and purpose-built rugged devices. OEM white labeling, packaging, and importation handled.
Hands-on training for administrators and end users: platform operation, device use, and provisioning of both devices and user accounts.
How It Works
A structured engagement with a clear handoff from deployment into long-term managed services.
Discovery & Design
- Preliminary consultation to understand your requirements
- System sizing, infrastructure design, and cost modeling
- Profitability analysis for dealers adding PoC to their portfolio
- Platform vendor introductions. Customer purchases licenses directly and owns the vendor relationship.
Deployment & Training
- Infrastructure provisioning in geo-redundant US data centers (or cloud / on-prem)
- Platform installation, configuration, testing, and validation
- Device recommendations, sourcing strategy, and optional white labeling
- Hands-on training: platform administration, device operation, and provisioning
Managed Platform Services
- Fixed monthly fee per provisioned user, billed by The Ashlar Group
- Performance monitoring and infrastructure capacity scaling
- Platform patch management and major software upgrades
- Backup management, firewall configuration, and database administration
Phase 3 is billed monthly at a fixed rate per provisioned user. It begins after go-live and continues as long as you need us.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our services, pricing, and private PoC deployments.
How does your pricing work?
Two components. A fixed upfront engagement fee covers discovery, system design, infrastructure deployment, and training. After go-live, you pay a fixed monthly fee per provisioned user for ongoing managed platform services: monitoring, upgrades, backups, scaling, and security.
What does the monthly per-user fee cover?
Our monthly managed services include performance monitoring, capacity and scaling analysis, platform patch management, major platform software upgrades as they become available, backup management, firewall configuration, and database administration. We handle the operational burden so your team does not have to.
Does the customer hold the platform license?
Yes. The customer purchases the perpetual platform license directly from the developer and holds that vendor relationship outright. The platform developer also offers an optional annual maintenance fee for continued developer support and updates. That fee is separate from our monthly managed services fee.
Where is the platform deployed?
The standard deployment uses geo-redundant US data centers for maximum uptime and US legal jurisdiction. We also support deployment in the customer's existing cloud environment or on-premises infrastructure when project requirements call for it.
Can the platform and devices be white labeled?
Yes. The platform software, dispatcher application, Android device application, physical devices, and device packaging can all be white labeled under your brand.
Are intrinsically safe PoC devices available?
Yes. We source IS-certified PoC devices for hazardous environments including oil refineries, chemical plants, and mining operations, compatible with the same private network platform.
