+ What are the critical required network performance characteristics for your IoT application?

+ How critical is early market entry to your strategy?

+ Is network reach/coverage a key success factor in 2016-18?

+ How dependent are you on network service providers or other ecosystem players for market entry?

+ How much of an economic driver is connectivity in your business model?

+ How can connectivity selection be best mitigated prior to IoT launch?

+ What are the most appropriate KPIs with which to measure success?

+ What are your operational challenges throughout the IoT lifecycle and how can they best be offset?

+ How sensitive is your implementation plan to standards or certification delay?

+ Can interference be mitigated in your LPWAN or other IOT deployment(s) ?

+ How fully have you taken advantage of SDx, cloud, and Agile technologies and business processes?

+ Are Network as a Service (NaaS) and Managed Services viable options fro your IoT business system?

+ How sensitive is your connectivity selection on your ROI?

+ How would a delay in market entry to synch with future network capabilities impact your IoT business case?

+ Is your IoT participation diversified across multiple products/markets or focused on key verticals or products?

+ What share of total addressable market must your IoT offering hit to be viable; can you achieve “economic reach”?

The IoT

Connec t i v i t y Ten

Commandments

I. Frame IoT connectivity selection as a foundational element of your

strategy

II. Integrate connectivity evaluation into LOB and strategic objectives

planning

III. Aggressively monitor standards and service provider pilots and roadmaps

IV. Employ Agile development and staged market launch best practices

V. Apply a structured IoT Analysis of Alternative (AoA) evaluation approach

prior to IoT option commitment

VI. Define Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) early to measure IoT success

VII. Establish an IoT multifunctional “Center of Excellence” ASAP

VIII. Beware of interoperability constraints that limit IoT business scaling and

extensibility

IX. Take full advantage of Modeling and Simulation tools and scenario

evaluation

X. Exploit the intersection of software defined technologies as they

coalesce across the IT and Telco landscape 15
