What Anscom does
Anscom Limited is a Sri Lanka-headquartered systems integrator specializing in Extra Low Voltage (ELV) integration, security, and automation solutions, founded in 2011 and operating with a regional office in Dubai to serve the UAE and broader Middle East. The company consolidates surveillance, access control, biometrics, networking, conference/AV, and smart home/building automation into unified building management deployments, functioning as an authorized dealer and licensed agent for more than 30 international brands including Dahua, Hikvision, Axis, Bosch, Anviz, SALTO, Ultraloq, Ubiquiti (UniFi), Konftel, LifeSmart, Sonos, Barco, Logitech, Schneider Electric, Milestone, Nedap, and Apple HomeKit/Amazon Alexa/Google Home ecosystems. Its core service stack spans ELV Solutions, Security & Automation Consultancy, Bespoke Integrations (customized software per client), Virtual Security Guard (24/7 remote video monitoring), and 24x7 Onsite Support with a Command Centre monitoring field technicians via mobile app.
The product portfolio is organized across 15+ solution categories including Video Camera Surveillance Systems (AI-powered ANPR, facial recognition, perimeter protection), Thermal Cameras, Access Control Room Systems (biometric, RFID, mobile credentials), Time & Attendance Systems (CrossChex Cloud), WiFi Systems (UniFi-based mesh networks), Smart Locks and Hotel Door Locks (SALTO KS, Ultraloq, Danalock), Smart Home Systems (LifeSmart with Apple HomeKit), Alarm Systems, Gate Motors, Video Doorbells, Meeting Room Booking Systems, Conference Room Systems (Konftel, Barco), Whiteboard Interactive Screens, and Public Address Systems. Notable technology components include AI-enabled cameras with deep learning analytics (Dahua WizSense/WizMind), cloud-based management platforms (CrossChex Cloud, SALTO KS, Dahua COS), and multiprotocol IoT connectivity (Zigbee, Sub-GHz, Bluetooth) via Silicon Labs silicon through LifeSmart.
The business model is a hybrid of hardware resale (one-time product sales as authorized dealer), professional services (design, supply, installation, configuration via project-based quoting), managed services (24x7 onsite support under SLAs), and emerging recurring revenue streams (Virtual Security Guard monitoring subscription, CrossChex Cloud at $500 entry, SALTO KS cloud access control). Pricing is quote-based and project-specific rather than publicly disclosed, reflecting a consultative enterprise sales motion rather than e-commerce. Anscom targets five primary verticals — Hospitality, Enterprises/Corporates, Financial Institutes, Residences, and Logistics & Supply Chain — with a 50+ named client base including Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts, Shangri-La Hambantota, John Keells Group, Expolanka Holdings, CEB (Ceylon Electricity Board), and One Galle Face. The company is privately held with no disclosed venture capital, private equity, or institutional investor involvement, operating organically under ISO 9001, SOC 1, SOC 2 Type 1/2, and CCPA compliance certifications.
