Custom Builds
The right specification for the job — not the closest thing on a shelf.
Off-the-shelf products cover most requirements, but not all. Where a standard configuration falls short — whether that is a screen size that does not exist in the catalogue, a processing requirement that sits between two standard tiers, a specific certification needed for a regulated environment, or a need to combine hardware and software into a single managed solution — a custom build is the answer.
Bosh Group works directly with manufacturers and supply chain partners across all of our product categories to source, specify, and deliver hardware built to your exact requirements. From a single bespoke unit to a large fleet deployment, the process is the same: understand the environment and the workload, define the specification, validate it, and deliver hardware that does exactly what it needs to do without paying for capability you do not need.
Custom builds are available across the full product range — rugged tablets, ATEX devices, mini PCs, servers, all-in-one PCs, and digital signage — and can encompass hardware specification, software pre-loading, branding, configuration, and ongoing supply as a managed procurement service.
What We Can Configure
Rugged Tablets and ATEX Devices
- Screen size, resolution, and brightness to application requirement
- Processor, memory, and storage to workload requirement
- Integrated add-ons — RFID, barcode scanning, NFC, 5G, thermal imaging
- Custom firmware and Android build with pre-loaded applications
- ATEX zone certification to match site classification
- Branded enclosures and custom labelling
Mini PCs
- Processor, memory, and storage tiers matched to workload
- Fanless or low-noise thermal configurations for silent environments
- Pre-installed and pre-activated operating system and software
- Custom I/O configurations for specific peripheral requirements
- Embedded and industrial variants for non-standard installations
Servers
- Single and dual-socket processor configurations
- Memory and storage scaled to virtualisation, database, or application workload
- RAID, networking, and redundancy specification
- Pre-configured hypervisor and operating system builds
- Rack integration and cabling as part of the supply
- Burn-in testing and pre-delivery validation
All-in-One PCs
- Display size, resolution, and touch specification
- Processor and memory matched to application workload
- Pre-loaded software and OS configuration
- Custom branding and enclosure options for kiosk and point-of-sale deployments
- VESA and mounting hardware included as part of the supply
Digital Signage
- Display size, orientation, brightness, and touch specification
- Outdoor, high-brightness, and video wall configurations
- Pre-configured content management software with custom templates
- Turnkey supply including mounts, cabling, and installation coordination
- Managed content and monitoring services available on request
Why Custom?
- Exact fit — hardware specified to the workload, not adapted from the nearest standard option
- Reduced waste — no paying for performance tiers or features the application does not need
- Consistent fleet — every unit in a deployment is identical, simplifying support and replacement
- Pre-configured — devices arrive ready to deploy, reducing on-site time and IT resource
- Long-term supply — agreed specifications held for the duration of a programme, ensuring continuity for phased rollouts and replacements
- Single point of contact — one supplier across hardware, configuration, and ongoing procurement
How It Works
- Requirement scoping — we discuss the environment, workload, user needs, and any constraints such as certifications, temperature ranges, or integration requirements
- Specification proposal — we produce a detailed hardware specification with options and recommendations
- Sample and validation — where required, sample units are provided for testing and sign-off before volume production
- Production and configuration — units are built, configured, and tested to the agreed specification
- Delivery and support — staged or bulk delivery to your schedule, with ongoing supply available for fleet expansion and replacement
