5. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing
devices, mechanical & digital machines, objects, animals or people that
are provided with unique identifiers & the ability to transfer data over a
network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer
interaction.

24. CHALLENGES…..
Political & Civil commitment: A strong will from the government & public to
overcome efforts to block progress.
Deployment of IPv6: The world ran out of IPv4 addresses in February 2010.
While no real impact has been seen by the general public, this situation has
the potential to slow IoT’s progress since the potentially billions of new
sensors will require unique IP addresses.
Standards & Regulations: While some progress has been made, more is
needed, especially in the areas of security, privacy, architecture, and
communications.IoT has the potential to change the world as we know it today—for the better. How quickly we get
there is up to us...

Disconnection: Separate IT and OT Silos: Technology Misalignment ; Ownership and Governance; Cultural Aspects
Foundation of competitive advantage is Operational Effectiveness & developing a distinctive strategic positioning!
If a company is not continuously OE, it will fall behind rivals in cost & quality. Yet this alone is not sustainable as rivals will adopt best practices themselves & catch-up.
To move beyond OE a company must define a dist. Strat. Positioning. Doing things well + doing them differently!
To achieve success in implementation of IOT –
Design – Achieve hardware standardization through software based customization. Harmonization of the hardware & software development/updation cycle.
Marketing – Analyse data to understand how to create value for customers. Mare tailored marketing strategies.
HR – Recruit new skill sets – Most manufacturing don’t have software developers, big data analytics, relationship managers.
Security – Protecting data is now a serious issue. Data flowing from products to the cloud needs to be protected from hackers and unauthorized access.
After Sales – Predictive maintenance. Early warning of impending failures.
The path to competitive advantage ultimately rests on strategy.
So most industries face 10 strategic choices. Each decision involves a trade-off & hence must reflect the company’s unique circumstances. Together they form a coherent strategy for the success of IOT.
Capabilities & Features – what will add value to the customers? What market segment it wants to serve? Reinforce competitive positioning?
Functionality in product vs cloud – Whether the enabling tech. for each feature should be embedded in the product (raising cost) vs delivered through cloud or use both?
Closed o open? – Closed: Aims to have customers purchase the entire IOT products system from a single manufacturer. Open: enables the end users to assemble the parts of solution from different companies.
In-house or outsource? Most successful is a combina tion of both.
Which data? Collecting data requires sensors adding to cost. Also more sensitive data needs more securtity.
Ownership – Maintain transparency in collection of data and establish a joint ownership. NDAs, right to share / sell etc. needs to be established.
Middlemen – both pros & cons.
Business Model: From product to product as a service. Instead of selling spare parts, companies like whirlpool can retain ownership of the product and charge only for usage. Middle path a better option.
Selling data to 3rd party – Firm could hide individual data and sell combined or bundled data.
Scope expansion: going from product to a whole set of solutions across the value chain. Carrier as intelligent HVAC systems. But is has not moved into smart building or home automation space. Why? Capabilities required a different and also the cost.
