Smart Locker Systems for City-Managed School IT
by Project Management
ILLTECx developed a connected smart locker system to support digital learning in a city-wide school network. With centralized network access, role-based compartments and CI integration, each classroom now operates as a secure, ready-to-use IT hub.


01 The Challenge.
Digitizing Classrooms with Centralized Infrastructure
A municipal education authority sought to unify IT usage across all schools in the region. The mission: build a standardized, serviceable infrastructure that could support both collaborative and individualized digital learning – across different school buildings and departments.
Key Goals:
✅ Local classroom device availability
✅ Central IT support integration
✅ Defined access for students, teachers, and admins
✅ Smart spatial integration
✅ Long-term durability and serviceability
