Introduction
Creating an eco-system of Partners
Due to the fragmentation of the M2M
Value Chain, development of end-toend best in class solutions implies to
work with Partners.
Industry and market dynamics limit any
one service provider’s ability to drive
significant change by “going it alone”.
Some programs and tools must be
put in place to make this process
easier in creating a rich ecosystem
of valuable partners.

What the market said
• “The seven mobile operators across the world using the same M2M platform will automatically benefit from a
degree of interoperability that makes it easier for enterprise customers to expand into new markets.”
(telecoms.com – News and Analysts)
• “The operators has big names with a vast geographic reach. It includes carriers from completely different regions
of the world” (telecoms.com – News and Analysts)
• “The Alliance opens doors to global bids. The main thing is to develop a single solution to meet the requirements
of multinationals.” (Ovum).
• “It is hoped that the alliance will stimulate the growth of M2M solutions, and lead to a reduction in operational
costs.” (Ovum).
• “Operator M2M alliance could solve fragmentation in ecosystem” (Fierce Wireless Europe – citing Analysts).
• “Along with greater collaboration between vendors and operators, such efforts would help to remove a barrier to
the wider adoption of M2M services.” (Telecom Engine – M2M )
• “Incorporation of Etisalat. Because the global M2M market is defined by partnerships and the combination of core
competencies an operator can bring to its M2M technology, being able to offer a single SIM for M2M will be
attractive to enterprises looking to deploy a single M2M application in different markets worldwide”. (telecom.com
– News and Analysts).

What the market said
"A significant advantage of this partnership, however, is addressing roaming
challenges, especially in M2M industries such as automotive and logistics applications
(e.g. regional and international logistics track & trace applications,.. The partners will
also benefit for scale arguments when negotiating M2M devices, modules, API
standardisation and M2M platform roadmap development. Moreover, these M2M telcos
will differentiate themselves from other M2M service providers. “
“The alliance will now need to work hard to use its single worldwide SIM to both
educate the enterprise market on the potential uses of M2M, as well as to use it as a
platform to differentiate from other operators’ M2M offerings”; “It will be interesting to
see how an alliance of operators with something approaching global reach – although
the key markets of the US and China are still absent from its footprint – will be able to
take market share from rivals with its single SIM approach in the growing M2M market”
“Alliance members are using the Mobile World Congress to highlight its progress so far.
The telcos are demonstrating SIM management capabilities and over-the-air
subscription updates on tablets during the show, which the alliance states are key
elements for manufacturers of mass-market connected devices.”
