About Smartcom News and Insights
Smartcom news brings together our press releases, customer stories and practical guides on team communication in Singapore. Each article explains how businesses use push-to-talk solutions, walkie talkies and rugged devices to work faster and safer.
For example, our press releases cover island-wide push-to-talk projects with Park Regis Singapore, ION Orchard, CWT Logistics, Yeap Transport and NSL OilChem. We also share how our teams kept event crews connected at the F1 Singapore Grand Prix, Special Olympics Singapore events and Chingay 2026. These stories show what reliable group calls look like in practice: hotel staff coordinating guests, drivers reporting their location and supervisors reaching every site at once. They also explain why customers chose 4G LTE push-to-talk over traditional radios, such as nationwide coverage without repeaters, GPS tracking and the option to keep existing devices through our bring your own device service. If your organisation is planning a similar rollout, these case studies are a useful starting point for deciding on devices, talk groups and dispatch features.
Beyond company updates, the blog also answers common questions from buyers. You will find guides on IMDA licensing, licence-free walkie talkies, walkie talkie rental costs, intrinsically safe devices for hazardous zones and the PSG grant. In addition, industry articles show how hotels, hospitals, transport operators and security teams set up their radios.
Smartcom is a licensed Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) in Singapore. Since 2015, we have delivered push-to-talk services together with TASSTA and Singtel. Therefore, every story and guide here draws on real projects across the island.
