Providing Real-Time Intelligence To Zambia's Economic Driver
Agriculture
Agriculture sits at the heart of national food security and export growth, and TCI Networks provides the real-time intelligence required to modernise the entire value chain. Our platform integrates soil, crop, livestock, aquaculture, water and climate monitoring into one unified ecosystem — giving farmers, cooperatives, and agribusinesses the visibility they need to operate efficiently and sustainably.
We support Zambia’s major national programmes, including the $1bn beef-export target, ZATP aquaculture expansion, and climate-smart agricultural initiatives. Through IoT-enabled sensors, weather stations, livestock trackers, pond monitors, and irrigation automation, TCI empowers farmers to reduce losses, improve yields, plan better, and respond faster to environmental changes.
From detecting water-quality shifts in fish ponds to monitoring herd movement in real time, we help the agriculture sector shift from reactive decisions to proactive, data-driven management — unlocking productivity across every hectare, herd, and harvest.
Telecommunications
Telecom networks form the backbone of digital economies — but they are often challenged by remote locations, harsh environments, vandalism, power instability, and unpredictable failures. TCI Networks delivers round-the-clock visibility into tower performance, power systems, environmental conditions, and site security, enabling operators to manage their networks with precision and confidence.
Our solutions monitor batteries, generators, rectifiers, temperatures, fuel levels, cabinet access, VSAT links, mains supply quality, and environmental hazards. Real-time alerts allow operators to prevent failures before they occur, reduce truck rolls, cut downtime, and optimise operating costs.
In a landscape where uptime is everything, our platform acts as an early-warning system for the nation’s connectivity. Whether a site loses grid power, experiences battery stress, or shows signs of tampering, TCI ensures that operators know instantly — keeping customers connected and strengthening national digital resilience.
Energy and Utilities
Zambia’s energy landscape is undergoing rapid transformation — from persistent power shortages and rising diesel reliance to the increasing need for greater transparency, accountability, and asset protection across the entire energy value chain. TCI Networks delivers the real-time intelligence required to strengthen national oversight, protect critical infrastructure, and support operational excellence across electricity and fuel systems.
Our platform provides full visibility from tanker to tank, empowering ERB, OMCs, and retailers with precise fuel-level monitoring, movement tracking, anomaly detection, and route integrity verification. Whether it’s preventing pilferage, detecting underground tank leaks, or confirming delivery volumes, TCI ensures that every litre is accounted for.
For the electricity sector, we support utilities with continuous monitoring of transformers, substations, lines, generators, and remote power systems, enabling early detection of failures, overloads, voltage issues, and security breaches. With vandalism, theft, and environmental stress increasingly impacting power assets, real-time data becomes a critical layer of protection for national grid stability.
Our IoT-enabled systems help utilities reduce downtime, extend asset life, optimise maintenance cycles, and respond instantly to disturbances — from powerline temperature spikes to transformer oil-level changes. In an environment where every hour of uptime affects businesses, clinics, homes, and national productivity, TCI delivers the real-time clarity required to keep Zambia powered.
Through smart monitoring and actionable insights, TCI strengthens regulatory compliance, enhances operational safety, and supports long-term energy resilience. From fuel to electricity, from depots to substations, we help the sector operate with transparency, accountability, and intelligence — every second of the day.
Transport and Logistics
Zambia’s position as a regional trade hub is rapidly evolving, and new corridors such as TAZARA and the Lobito Corridor are reshaping cross-border movement. TCI provides the real-time visibility required to keep goods moving safely, predictably, and efficiently across rail, road, and cold-chain systems.
Our solutions monitor cargo conditions, fuel usage, route deviations, temperature integrity, equipment health, and asset locations in real time. Whether it’s safeguarding fish on ice, pharmaceuticals, mining exports, agricultural produce, or fuel in motion, TCI delivers an unbroken chain of intelligence from origin to destination.
By combining IoT sensors, telematics, environmental monitoring, and actionable analytics, TCI helps logistics operators, government agencies, and development partners strengthen supply-chain reliability, reduce losses, improve accountability, and meet international compliance standards.
From rail wagons and tankers to warehouses and cross-border checkpoints, TCI provides the visibility that keeps regional commerce flowing — and positions Zambia as a competitive logistics gateway for Africa.
