About the Partnership → Joint Value Proposition
TANDM Systems and Encardio Rite Monitoring Solutions combine precision instrumentation, structural and geotechnical monitoring, connected data and engineering expertise to give infrastructure owners greater visibility into asset condition, performance and change.
Leadership Message
A Shared Approach to Smarter Infrastructure Monitoring
Infrastructure owners are under increasing pressure to understand how critical assets are performing — not only at the point of inspection, but continuously throughout their operating life.
TANDM Systems and Encardio Rite Monitoring Solutions share a belief that better monitoring starts with better measurement, but that measurement only creates value when it can be connected, understood and acted upon.
Our complementary capabilities bring together precision instrumentation, structural and geotechnical monitoring, automated data acquisition, telemetry, digital platforms and engineering support.
This creates an integrated approach to monitoring that helps customers move from isolated measurements toward a clearer understanding of asset condition, ground behaviour, structural response and changing risk.
For us, the objective is not to install more sensors for the sake of collecting more data. It is to provide the right measurements, in the right places, connected to the right systems, so that engineering and operational teams can make better-informed decisions.

From Ground Truth to Real-Time Certainty
TANDM and Encardio Rite Monitoring Solutions provide geotechnical engineers with instrumentation and monitoring capability spanning the entire slope stability engineering lifecycle — subsurface to surface, sensor to software.
Our combined capabilities include:
Geotechnical Instrumentation & Sensing
Piezometers, inclinometers, extensometers, crack meters and prism targets for direct measurement of pore pressure, deformation, settlement and displacement across slopes, tailings facilities, dams and pits.
Structural & Dynamic Monitoring
Precision strain gauges, load cells, force and torque transducers, and industrial accelerometers monitoring the structural health of retaining structures, conveyors, plant infrastructure and haul roads adjacent to the slope.
Remote & Geodetic Monitoring
GNSS, robotic total stations, InSAR, UAV and LiDAR survey integration for wide-area surface deformation and change detection across open pits and unstable terrain.
Automated Data Acquisition & Telemetry
Dataloggers, wired and wireless (LoRaWAN, GPRS/GSM) telemetry systems delivering continuous, remote data capture from even the most inaccessible sites.
Cloud-Based Infrastructure Data Intelligence
Proqio, Encardio Rite’s integrated monitoring platform, converges sensor, survey and satellite data into a single dashboard — with AI/ML-assisted trend analysis, digital twins and automated alarm management.
Early Warning & Risk Management
TARP-aligned alert thresholds and automated notifications that give operations teams time to act before a slope failure event, not after.
Calibration, Training & Local Technical Support
South African-based calibration, commissioning, training and maintenance support — so monitoring programmes are never left waiting on offshore turnaround times.
These capabilities enable geotechnical engineers to move from isolated point-in-time readings to continuous, connected visibility of ground behaviour, structural response and changing risk — across the full life of a slope.

what we do
Discover how ERMS and TANDM are solving slope stability challenges
TANDM and ERMS deliver specialised sensing, monitoring, data integration and engineering support across mining, civil and infrastructure environments.
Subsurface Geotechnical Instrumentation
Vibrating-wire and digital piezometers, in-place and portable inclinometers, multipoint borehole extensometers and surface crack meters — measuring pore pressure, groundwater response and ground movement at the point of greatest risk.
Surface Deformation & Geodetic Survey
Automated prism monitoring, robotic total stations, GNSS receivers and mini prism targets, integrated with InSAR satellite data, UAV photogrammetry and LiDAR scanning for large-area surface displacement mapping.
Strain, Load & Structural Health Monitoring
HBK/HBM strain gauges and strain transducers, load cells, force and torque transducers, and industrial accelerometers — applied to retaining structures, tailings embankments, conveyor systems and plant infrastructure to detect structural stress before it becomes structural failure.
Vibration, Displacement & Dynamic Monitoring
Non-contact displacement, distance and position sensors, inertial sensors (tilt, pitch, roll) and LoRaWAN-based dynamic displacement and vibration monitoring — extending real-time coverage to infrastructure and assets surrounding the slope.
Environmental & Compliance Monitoring
Rain gauges, groundwater sensors and sound-level measurement supporting environmental compliance obligations alongside geotechnical risk management.
Automated Data Acquisition & Dataloggers
Digital and analogue dataloggers with GPRS/GSM and wireless transmission, calibrated and commissioned locally, feeding continuous, quality-assured data into cloud-based platforms.

ERMS and TANDM’s Insights
Why Slope Monitoring Fails Without Connected Data
Isolated point-in-time readings tell you where a slope was. They don’t tell you where it’s going.
TANDM and Encardio Rite Monitoring Solutions integrate piezometers, inclinometers, prisms and structural sensors into a single connected platform — Proqio — so geotechnical engineers see ground behaviour and structural response as one continuous picture, not scattered data points.
The result: earlier warnings, fewer surp
From Test Results to Engineering Decisions
A slope failure risk assessment that only looks at the ground misses half the picture. Conveyors, haul roads, retaining structures and tailings embankments carry their own structural risk — and often fail before the slope does.
TANDM’s precision strain, load and vibration sensing extends monitoring coverage beyond pure geotechnics, giving engineers visibility into the structural assets that sit on and around every slope.
