DSI Group

What DSI Group does

DSI Group is a French private IT solutions and services firm founded in 2007 and headquartered in Massy, with registered offices in Paris and additional presence in Metz, Luxembourg, and Tunisia. The company operates across multiple service lines: a core proprietary product called Where It, which is a SaaS-based real-time geolocation and inventory management platform for medical equipment combining BLE, RFID, and proprietary localization algorithms with miniature IoT sensors (up to 15-year battery life) and an open API for hospital information systems; a Digital Factory nearshore R&D service with teams in France and Tunisia developing prototypes and internal products; AI consulting and custom automation services; IT and Telecom engineering services (including FTTH, mobile, and VOIP/TOIP); and a catalog of professional training programs covering Scrum, Product Owner, Text Mining, and eco-design of digital services.

The business model blends recurring SaaS subscriptions (Where It, AI solutions) with professional services revenue (Digital Factory R&D, Telecom engineering, training). Healthcare — specifically hospitals and clinics managing shared medical equipment across multi-building facilities — is the primary vertical, with BTP (construction) and industrial sectors as secondary targets. Sales are predominantly direct and enterprise-led, supported by business development representatives, account managers, and active participation in healthcare and telecom trade events such as SantExpo 2025 and ITBE Miami. Marketing combines content (company blog, YouTube testimonials), social channels (LinkedIn, X), and event presence.

The firm is structured as a SARL unipersonnelle with €300,000 registered capital and operates without disclosed institutional or venture backing, suggesting growth is funded organically. Recent strategic activity includes geographic expansion (Tunisia nearshore scaling in mid-2024, new Metz office in May 2024), product recognition (SantExpo 2025 finalist among 125 dossiers; ITBE Miami 2023 innovation prize), and organizational modernization including a November 2025 internal generative AI training initiative. Partnership with the Smart Buildings Alliance since 2019 positions the firm within the French Smart Hospital ecosystem.
