Senet and Radio Bridge partner so people cant purchase Senet LoRaWAN™ network connectivity directly through Radio Bridge’s device management console which provides automatic provisioning, monitoring and configuration of low-cost wireless sensors. The Radio Bridge device management console can be used to provision, monitor, and configure sensors and build the final end-user application through a simple RESTful API interface for uplink sensor messages and downlink configuration.

Istanbul Airport implement asset tracking with LoRa geolocation.
Skysens deploy an end-to-end solution with thousands of LoRa sensors, a LoRaWAN network and applications using LoRa-based geolocation (no GPS) to monitor the location of vehicles, personnel and luggage indoor and outdoor. It aims to drive down operational costs with: predictive maintenance, asset monitoring, reduced energy consumption.

Management of IoT Projects
In built environment engineering (bridge, building, etc.) - Work is a function of Scope. Further the "functions" are relatively well understood based on known materials, methods and calibrated based on well recorded past examples (e.g. underpinning QS). So the project management is focused on the cost, effort, time, materials etc. needed to undertake the work.
W=f(S)
Cost = f1(W, Materials Cost, Labour Cost)
Time = f2(W, Material availability, Labour availability, Dependencies)
Risk = f3(W)
S=f(W)
Which is why the traditional methods of understanding cost, time and risk fail.
Further many of the traditional things done with advanced project planning e.g. critical path and complex task scheduling, resource levelling, etc.) just don't make sense when the function for converting Work to Time isn't well enough calibrated and the dependencies between tasks (and the components produced by them) are not fully understood.
What is needed mostly is a more sophisticated way of understanding Scope. And changes to Scope as it emerges (i.e. either through elaboration of discovery of omissions).
This understand must be shared and most criticality must understood by key stakeholders such as the funder(s), the user(s), etc. NOT just the builders.
