BlueMetal, an Insight Enterprises (NASDAQ:NSIT) company, announced
it has won the 2016 Microsoft Internet of Things (IoT) Worldwide
Partner of the Year Award. BlueMetal was honored, among a global
field of top Microsoft partners, for demonstrating excellence in
innovation and implementation of client solutions based on
Microsoft technology.
BlueMetal was engaged by Weka Health Solutions,

distribution in the U.S. and countries in the developing world.
“There is a pressing global demand for
modernized vaccine distribution around the world in a way that
keeps vaccines fresh, secure and accounted for,” said Alan
Lowenstein, Weka Health Solutions COO. “BlueMetal was instrumental
in helping us IoT-enable our product to include real-time
reporting, analytics and alerts to mobile devices, aiding in the
enhancement of patient safety and overall improvements to supply
chain workflow.”
BlueMetal also developed a comprehensive
dashboard application for the Vaccine Smart-Fridge, providing data
visualization of every unit in real time at multiple locations,
using over 40 sensors in each unit that continuously communicate
telemetry data from each Vaccine Smart-Fridge.
“We’re extremely proud of the work we’ve done
helping our client, Weka Health Solutions, create intelligent
refrigeration technology that will get much-needed vaccines to
developing countries around the world,” said Scott Jamison, VP
services, BlueMetal an Insight Company. “This is a perfect example
of how the Internet of Things can transform lives, and we are
grateful for being able to work with Microsoft in creating and
building this innovative solution.”

with winners chosen from a set of more than 2,500 entrants from 119
countries worldwide. BlueMetal was recognized for providing
outstanding solutions and services in the IoT category.
