The Internet of Things (IoT) encompasses an enormous number of connected devices that collect and share data. The associated business potential is huge. But the successful design and development of products can be complex and the risk of failure is high.

IoT enables business transformation
IoT equips objects with sensors, processors, embedded software, and other technologies. These devices connect and exchange data with other devices and systems over the Internet or other communications networks.
Industries and companies are seeking more value from their own collected data. Others are developing new business models and services based on IoT data analysis.
From applications like predictive industrial maintenance, to just-in-time product restocking, connecting ‘product on the shelf ‘to inventory and delivery – the successful adoption of technology will give you a competitive advantage.
IoT development challenges
The Internet of Things does not prescribe which devices are connected, how they communicate, or even their purpose. It can enable revolutionary new ways of implementing intelligent systems but does not define the ‘one best way’ to do so. There will be challenges along the way…
There is a bewildering array of components and products employed for IoT applications, ranging from edge devices to cloud computing. Are you making the right component and vendor selections for your project to ensure long term success?
All IoT projects should follow a multi-disciplined methodology to ensure successful development, that delivers real business value. Do you have the internal resources and expertise to plan and execute?
Security is one of the most significant factors holding back the deployment and adoption of IoT. To successfully develop and launch secure devices to market, you’ll need to weave security into your requirements, design and operation. Get it wrong, and you can undermine trust in your brand for years to come.
