Hansel Technologies Limited

Risk management software for a roads authority

Nairobi, Kenya, is home to Hansel Technologies Limited, a software engineering company that builds systems meant to run in production rather than as prototypes. Its most developed product is a risk management platform, certified to ISO standards, that brings project risk and enterprise risk into one system. It offers severity analysis, five-by-five risk matrices, trend analysis, mitigation tracking and regional filtering. The platform is in use at a national roads authority in Kenya and is built to be adapted for other organisations.

Field sales apps that work offline

A field sales platform pairs an administration dashboard with a mobile app. Representatives use it to record sales and track stock, while managers can locate field staff. The mobile side is designed to keep working offline, so a rep in a poor-signal area can still log orders, which are synchronised when a connection returns.

AI systems, analytics and business applications

The company builds AI systems, among them a retinal screening tool for diabetes. Other work includes custom mobile and web applications for business needs, data analytics and visualisation for complex data, a fleet coordination system and print fulfilment software. Its integrations with M-Pesa, PayPal and Twilio mean that payments and messages can run inside the same system as the core business work.

Starting from a business problem

The company describes its method as starting from a business problem, such as fleet coordination, chronic care monitoring, risk aggregation or print fulfilment, and turning it into software that runs reliably in production. It says it engineers production systems rather than prototypes, and it offers to begin each project by working out where the problem sits. The company also points to its ISO-certified risk platform as evidence that its systems meet formal standards. Its work spans fleet operations, chronic care monitoring, risk management and print fulfilment, so one approach serves several sectors.
