Introduction

TeDaC and JTF Wireless share a longstanding partnership grounded in technical expertise, regulatory understanding, and a commitment to supporting the UK’s most temperature-sensitive industries.


The relationship began in the late 2000s, when Chris (Director at TeDaC) first worked with Jake (Founder of JTF) while Jake was supporting fixed monitoring installations across the Southwest. When Jake launched JTF Wireless in 2012, the collaboration continued naturally, and has since evolved into a comprehensive, seamless ecosystem that combines TeDaC’s temperature mapping capabilities with JTF’s installation, monitoring, and calibration services.

Today, the two organisations work closely across food, pharmaceutical, and logistics environments, delivering robust cold chain compliance through a complete monitoring infrastructure.

Regulatory Compliance and Accreditation

Pharmaceutical and high-risk food operations operate under stringent regulatory frameworks. JTF Wireless provides the equipment, documentation, and assurance needed to meet these standards with confidence.

Our ISO 17025-accredited calibration services ensure every sensor and device can be trusted for precision and audit-grade reporting. This accreditation is central to pharmaceutical quality systems, where accuracy, traceability, and reproducibility are essential.

Beyond calibration, JTF’s monitoring systems support:

  • Good Distribution Practice (GDP)
  • Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)
  • MHRA expectations for data integrity
  • Comprehensive audit trails
  • Incident management and deviation handling

In practice, this means regulated sites have everything needed to demonstrate control, maintain robust records, and satisfy auditors without operational disruption.

A Complete End-to-End Monitoring Ecosystem

JTF Wireless goes far beyond supplying sensors. We offer a full monitoring architecture including gateways, wireless sensors, GPS trackers, BLE accessories, telemetry, vehicle monitoring, and cloud-based analytics.

The Sematics Platform

At the centre of this ecosystem is Sematics, JTF’s modern analytics and monitoring backend. It transforms raw environmental data into:

  • Real-time alerts
  • Multi-site dashboards
  • Data visualisations
  • Full reporting suites
  • Temperature excursion logs

This reduces manual effort, strengthens compliance, and helps organisations detect and resolve temperature risks before they become costly incidents.

Temperature Mapping and Tailored System Design

A compliant monitoring solution starts with placing sensors in the right locations, and this is where TeDaC and JTF’s partnership excels.

TeDaC conducts temperature mapping studies across cold rooms, freezers, and ambient storage to identify hot and cold spots, airflow patterns, and areas of risk. They then recommend optimised sensor placement based on real environmental behaviour.

JTF Wireless follows by:

  • Installing the fixed monitoring system
  • Configuring the hardware to the mapped design
  • Supporting IQ/OQ qualification
  • Ensuring the system aligns with pharmaceutical quality standards

This creates a cohesive, validated monitoring setup tailored to the site’s real conditions (not guesswork).

Real-Time Monitoring and Instant Alerting

When it comes to frozen and refrigerated pharmaceuticals, response time can determine whether stock is salvageable. JTF’s systems provide:

  • Continuous 24/7 monitoring
  • Temperature and humidity sensing
  • Door status monitoring
  • Automated alerts for deviations
  • Full incident reporting

Real-time notifications via SMS, email, or the Sematics dashboard help teams act quickly, protect inventory, and maintain compliance with documented corrective actions.

Support, Maintenance, and Ongoing Calibration

Long-term compliance depends on consistent accuracy, not just initial installation. JTF supports clients with:

  • Annual UKAS/ISO 17025 recalibration
  • Routine maintenance
  • Firmware and configuration updates
  • User training
  • Troubleshooting and technical support
  • Quarterly business reviews (QBRs)

This ensures systems stay reliable, calibrated, and audit-ready all year round.

Scalability and Flexibility for Growing Operations

JTF’s monitoring solutions are designed to scale effortlessly as organisations expand, whether adding new cold rooms, increasing fleet size, or rolling out monitoring across multiple sites.

Their wireless devices offer:

  • Long battery life
  • Rugged construction for cold environments
  • Flexible gateway configurations
  • Compatibility with both fixed and mobile environments

This makes the system suitable for small facilities through to nationwide cold chain networks.

A Partnership Built for Long-Term Assurance

The JTF and TeDaC collaboration provides organisations with a complete cold chain assurance solution- from mapping and sensor placement to installation, analytics, calibration, validation, and long-term support. It’s a proven partnership designed for industries where compliance, accuracy, and reliability are non-negotiable.
