SDH ADVISOR

A technical decision.
Before development
and procurement.

For owners and leaders of industrial companies: we review a contractor's proposal, architecture and economics before you commit a budget. You receive an assessment, requirements and a pilot plan.

Problem Brief
02

Gather evidence

Separate verified data from assumptions and unknowns.

Evidence Register
03

Assess the economics

Estimate implementation, operating costs and sensitivity to assumptions.

Economic Model
04

Design the system

Compare options and connect hardware, software, data and people.

System Architecture
05

Plan the pilot

Define metrics, timelines, budget and stopping criteria.

90-day Pilot Plan
What we know. What remains unknown. Which action will reduce uncertainty.
05PROJECTS AND COMPLETED MILESTONES

The experience
behind our decisions.

The founder's own AgTech and industrial developments. For each project, we present the challenge, architecture and milestone reached.

AGTECH / AI / REMOTE SENSING

HSS GDT

Our own AgTech development

Technologies for early detection of oil palm diseases

A hardware and software system with an AI core designed for early detection of Ganoderma boninense. The project combines remote sensing, field data and plant health analysis.

Satellite dataUAVs and hyperspectral imagingIoT sensorsAI analytics
COMPLETED MILESTONE

The system's multimodal concept has been developed and demonstration materials prepared.

How this experience helps clients +

Aligning equipment, data sources and analytics around a single industry challenge. This experience helps define the pilot scope and the requirements for validating results.

GDT is the founder's own project. It is presented as development experience, not as a completed SDH Advisor client engagement.

COMPLETED MILESTONE

According to the project team, the system has passed factory and field tests. This milestone is documented in the project materials from July 2026.

How this experience helps clients +

Working with physical equipment, reliability requirements and test scenarios. Engineering decisions are assessed in the context of a real industrial process.

Testing and industrial operation are separate stages. This description does not claim that commissioning has been completed.

07WHY CLIENTS TRUST US WITH THEIR PROJECTS

Trust is built
on a clear process.

Experience matters when it translates into clear requirements, an honest assessment of risks and a concrete solution for the client.

01

Firsthand development experience

GDT and ICS BOP provide practical context for working with equipment, data, integrations and technical hypothesis testing.

02

Personal accountability

Each project has a lead consultant. The specialist expertise required and the people responsible for validating conclusions are identified before work begins.

03

Verifiable conclusions

Every critical decision has a basis: data, a source or an experiment. Assumptions and unknowns are recorded separately.

04

A transparent scope of work

We agree on the deliverables, scope, timeline and cost before starting. New requirements are not introduced without the client's knowledge.

05

Respect for your ideas

The client retains their source materials. Publishing a case study and reusing a concept require separate agreement; confidentiality terms are established before restricted data is shared.

06

Independent recommendations

We compare the available options, including existing solutions. If there is insufficient evidence for a pilot, we recommend further validation. Any interests involving recommended contractors are disclosed.

Facts, assumptions and the next validation steps remain visible at every stage of the project.

How our approach works
PROJECT CONFIDENTIALITY

Your idea. Your rights. Our responsibility.

Before sharing confidential materials, we agree an NDA covering the purpose, participants and exchange channels. The client retains original rights; publishing a case requires separate written consent.

Clients see their own requests; project managers and experts see assigned projects. Administrative access is limited by each role's permissions.

FIRST CONVERSATION

Discuss the decision before committing a budget.

In 20 minutes we discuss the challenge, the main uncertainty and the next step. Leave your email without registering; we agree on a time by email.

Monday–Friday, 08:00–22:00 Bali time · Asia/Makassar · UTC+8.

The meeting is confirmed after a time is agreed. Confidential materials are discussed after an NDA.

EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS

What a Concept Pack looks like.

Two fictional cases: industrial visual inspection and AgTech IoT. They illustrate questions, assumptions, architecture and a validation plan.

Short educational examples of 10 pages each. They do not claim actual client project results.

CHECK YOUR ASSUMPTIONS

How much is your unvalidated pilot?

Three numbers show the budget that depends on unvalidated assumptions. No project details or contact information are needed.

1. What is your pilot budget in USD?
2. What share of the budget will be spent before the first measurable result?
3. What monetary share of those early costs depends on unvalidated assumptions?

Budget dependent on unvalidated assumptions

Enter a pilot budget and valid shares from 0 to 100%. No monetary result is calculated without a budget.

A scenario estimate of budget tied to assumptions, rather than a loss forecast. Calculations run in your browser.

HOW TO START
01

Discuss the challenge

Leave your email for an introductory conversation. You can complete the detailed brief after we meet.

02

Agree on the work

We clarify inputs, scope, timelines and format. Terms are established before work begins.

03

Receive your deliverables

Working sessions, expert review and a presentation of the agreed deliverables.

08QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Before
we begin.

What happens after I submit a request?+

Your request is saved in your account with an ID and status. A consultant reviews the information and agrees on the next step using the contact details you provided. Scope, cost and timelines are established before work begins.

Can I come with just an idea?+

Yes. Describe the problem and your desired outcome. If information is limited, we will start with clarification or a validation plan. Innovation Sprint helps develop one specific scenario.

Do you develop the product?+

These packages cover engineering planning: concept, architecture, requirements and a pilot plan. Programming, equipment manufacturing, site visits and laboratory tests are quoted separately.

What if the idea is not validated?+

A well-supported recommendation for further testing, revision or stopping is a valid result. We document the basis for the decision and the conditions under which it should be reconsidered.

How firm are the prices and timelines?+

The website shows starting estimates from the service catalogue. The final scope and price are determined after an initial assessment. Business days are counted from receipt of the agreed materials and payment.

How are project materials used?+

The data is needed to review the request and carry out the agreed work. Publishing a case study, reusing a concept and training AI require separate grounds and consent. Confidential materials are shared after a secure channel is agreed.

Can we work without Telegram?+

Yes. The brief and request status are available on the website. You can provide an email address for communication. Telegram is not required.
