4. Research focused on delineating experiences of two distinct
customer segments: MSPs and Enterprise IoT Adopters
IoT segment Definition Example IoT deployment
âManaged Service Providerâ
(MSP) Segment
The âMSPâ segment consists of
organizations deploying IoT
technologies as a part of a product or
service they provide to end customers
or partners
Fortune 500 manufacturer of industrial
automation equipment uses remote
monitoring to track system health and
manage maintenance proactively
âEnterpriseâ Segment
The âEnterpriseâ segment consists of
organizations adopting IoT technologies
for uses internal to their business
A consumer packaged goods
manufacturer installs sensors in their
distribution facilities to optimize their
supply chain processes and reduce
latency

8. Manufacturing
Moving from action to insights
Reduced development time and cost by 80%
by gathering and analyzing data more
efficiently and increasing automation across
the company.
Building efficiency with IoT
Connected chillers are back online 9x faster
than unconnected equipment, avoiding more
than $300,000 in hourly downtime costs.
Filtering the signal from
the noise
Used analytics to discover actionable insights
around fuel usage, predictive maintenance
and stop unscheduled delays.
9. Retail
Data transforms beverage business
Increased the actionable insight pulled from company data across all
areas of the company by deploying Microsoft Azure Machine
Learning.
Connecting the unconnected
Gathered data from sensors and systems to create valuable business
intelligence and shift from reactive to proactive maintenance.
10. Banking
A growing bank's new approach
Leveraged company wide data to predict how likely customers are to
go to other financial institution and drive better product features.
Fast, friendly, and reliable banking
Developed a complete business intelligence suite to track company
data in under a week in order to drive up engagement and accounts
holder satisfaction.
11. Government
How Glasgow is reinventing itself
Developed apps to help citizens use services and business find
growth opportunities using data from IoT sensors across the city.
The Internet of (Farm) Things
Deployed IoT sensors in different farms to optimize use of
Marylandâs 93,000 acres of the farmland and maximize production.
12. Health
Creating proactive,
personalized healthcare
Using data from blood-pressure cuffs, pulse
oximeters, and other devices, staff know to
respond before the patient knows something
is wrong.
Transforming healthcare with
faster access
By capturing and analyzing data recorded in
medical charts, staff were able to improve
treatment techniques by tracking return visits.
Building a connected hospital
Reduce medication delivery times and
inventory costs by connecting dispensary
devices with electronic medical records.
