Implementation
AiRISTA solutions work with virtually any customer application or sensor through open APIs and the Flow Studio integration designer.
Your dedicated project manager develops a custom program plan based on findings during discovery. Best practices encourage a customer counterpart, often the person/team that takes responsibility for maintaining the solution after implementation. We work around your schedule to roll the solution out in your facilities. Much of the work is staged in advance to minimize time on site, and rich debug tools allow us to troubleshoot in the moment to resolve issues in real time. Tests are performed at each step and boundary conditions tested.
To extract full value from the platform, we explore opportunities to integrate with existing applications that drive your processes. And we teach how to use Flow Studio, AiRISTA’s low-code design pallet where the power of integration is accessible to the layperson. Sharing location insights across the enterprise increases the value of your existing IT investments and can increase the return on your AiRISTA RTLS platform by 2x or more.
Once deployed, we provide documentation and all the tools necessary for your team to take ownership. As part of our support services, we can assist as you become familiar with the platform and any questions you have along the way.

Frequently Asked Questions
AiRISTA’s RTLS implementation services use a phased deployment approach designed to minimize operational disruption during installation and go-live. The implementation team coordinates closely with IT, facilities, and operational stakeholders to schedule work during low-traffic periods, pre-stage RTLS hardware, and streamline installation activities. Clear deployment timelines, testing procedures, and onboarding support help ensure a smooth RTLS rollout with minimal impact on daily operations.
During RTLS implementation, AiRISTA manages RF planning, RTLS hardware installation, gateway configuration, tag provisioning, Sofia software setup, integrations, and deployment project management. Internal IT teams typically assist with network access, firewall configuration, wireless infrastructure coordination, and connections to systems such as EHR, CMMS, or ERP platforms. AiRISTA provides clear implementation requirements and deployment guidance upfront to support efficient coordination throughout the project.
Deployment timelines vary based on facility size, infrastructure readiness, integration complexity, and project scope. Multi-site RTLS deployments or environments requiring additional BLE gateways, WiFi calibration, or workflo customization require longer implementation timelines. For these reasons, AiRISTA doesn’t provide “typical” implementation guidance and performs a discovery phase with interested clients.
