IoTM is an iterative methodology designed to navigate the complexities of Internet of Things (IoT) projects through co-creation, architectural implementation, and iterative feedback across diverse stakeholder groups. It emphasizes understanding each organization's unique competencies and aligning them with appropriate IoT solutions while fostering collaboration among various participants. The framework includes tools and templates for project management, design, and technical development, aiming to cultivate new IoT opportunities and enhance existing products and services.
IoT Methodology - Welcome slides for #iotday IoT Ghent Meetup 090418
- 2. ❖ What is IOTM? ❖ Solutions + “project routes” we’re working on ❖ Past projects ❖ Give some new perspectives ❖ Get some feedback Hello
- 3. IoT is not “business as usual” Scope is bigger, much bigger More personalities need to collaborate Even more unknown unknowns for the traditional business THE IOT DILEMMA
- 4. Reaction from organisations Unclear definition = no strategy No direction “Business as usual” habits THE IOT DILEMMA Current IoT solutions Micro/macro phenomena Understanding sector needs For ‘Industry/tech leaders’ it’s business as usual Why is this occurring? IoT competence domains are unknown A one size fits all approach is impossible So where do we start?
- 5. IOTM is a three phase iterative method to brainstorm, build and tune sensor, smart device and data driven challenges. It maps out new projects, helps with existing initiatives or generating ideas from scratch. WELCOME TO IOTM
- 6. The lifecycle journey takes nine steps: ● Co-creation, ideation and validation ● Architecture, implementation and deployment ● Identify, classify and act IOTM LIFECYCLE Diversity at each step ensures the correct feedback from end users, analysts, designers, developer and marketers, getting everyone on the same page.
- 7. The challenge for any generic, ‘horizontal’, swiss-army-knife like solution is to match the right tools, with the right people at the right time. We use a company ‘competence’ assessment to identify the strengths, weaknesses, experiences and resources a company might already have at hand. IOT COMPETENCE MODEL
- 8. Successful IoT initiatives align with similar traits, driven by strengths, weaknesses and the partnerships an organisation builds, it can make all the difference in delivering change successfully. TECHNICAL DOMAIN EXAMPLE

- 10. IOTM METHOD TO PROGRESS Effective digital company and product ranges IoT Methodology IoT Competence Model IOTM Toolbox
- 11. Blueprint initiatives to solve common challenges getting started or progressing further with IoT • Project analysis workshop • Real-time data dashboards • Remote Sensor Pilot projects • Creating new products - business contracts • Hands-on IoT hardware • UX for developing IoT user interfaces PROJECT ROUTES
- 12. TELECOM IOT WORKSHOP Tools used: ● Context maps ● System maps ● Pitch deck ● Public voting system brainstorm build tune Through public hackathons, internal workshops and various projects - a number of ‘co-creation’ tools were used to explore new ideas and inspire new strategy. Problem(s): There’s no next step, or convincing buy-in from operations.
- 13. BARCODE STOCK CONTROL INTEGRATION Tools used: ● Business case assessment ● Shop floor - System maps ● Network diagrams ● Test plans for accountability handover ● Documentation brainstorm build tune A metal pressing firm required a more effective way to manage stock. Using a handheld barcode scanner we improved accountability for both goods in/out. Problem(s): Pushing this into quality control was too ambitious
- 14. PLEQ - Industrial Vibration Sensors PLEQ provides vibration analysis solution for manufacturers and maintenance firms. Using a ‘plug and play’ sensor for early alerting and real-time monitoring. Problem(s): Mountains of data, endless alarms and constantly data modelling efforts Tools used: ● System maps ● Test case ● App feedback reports ● Root-cause analysis brainstorm build tune
- 15. DEFINING PROJECT ROUTES Design focus Co-creation workshop & internal concept design Business focus New IoT market strategy for existing solution Technical focus Validation, architecture and development project Delivered as workshop Delivered as analysis reports Delivered as consultancy service and report Context map Interest cards UI mockups Concept card Presentation Assessment System maps Topological Diagrams Licensing review Schedule of work Proposal Market scan Evaluation Assessment Presentation
- 16. IOTM is essentially a scaffold for existing businesses, to explore and discover IoT opportunities enhancing, extending and supporting products and services. IOTM is built by C4IOT who provides Consultancy for the Internet of Things in software development, hardware deployment and overall management of a variety of IoT projects. APPROACH USING IOTM The steps and solutions offered by IOTM are seeds to grow initiatives that companies and even ecosystems lead.
- 17. Ideation Management and Voting system for Hackathon event PAST PROJECTS Independent evaluator Coach/Judge at IoT Roadshow showcasing Intel technologie Supported Telco IoT workshops and managed developers community Developed IoT Ideation web app for nationwide IoT competition
- 18. C4IOT is looking for project sponsors and commercial/research partners to explore the methodology with a larger sample of projects aligned under one initiative. Our next hypothesis concerns the value and alignment of goals across a single enterprise or towards multiple companies in an ecosystem using IOTM. SUPPORTING IOTM
