This report provides Transforma Insights’ view on the use of IoT in Vehicle Rental, Leasing & Sharing Management. This segment comprises two sub-applications: Vehicle Rental, Leasing & Sharing Management Head Unit and Vehicle Rental, Leasing & Sharing Management Aftermarket. This report focuses on the remote monitoring of vehicles lent to businesses and private individuals by a third party. Third party vehicle owners include rental car companies, vehicle finance providers, or share car schemes. Some of the principal drivers behind the use of remote monitoring solutions are to track vehicle location, enable better estimation of maintenance requirements, and automate logging of vehicle usage. Although historically a market dominated by aftermarket solutions, many automotive OEMs have begun to become a part of the rental, leasing, and sharing ecosystem by offering specialised telematics services to rental and leasing companies. Even so, aftermarket devices are still preferred by rental and leasing companies with a varied fleet of vehicles that are difficult to monitor and manage with a single embedded solution. Vehicle hire companies such as Avis Budget Group, Hertz, and Europcar use integrated aftermarket devices to streamline operations and reduce costs. The report provides a detailed definition of the sector, analysis of market development and profiles of the key vendors in the space. It also provides a summary of the current status of adoption and Transforma Insights’ ten-year forecasts for the market. The forecasts include analysis of the number of IoT connections by geography, the technologies used (including splits by 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, LPWA, short range, satellite and others), as well as the revenue split between module, value-added connectivity and services. A full set of forecast data, including country-level forecasts, sector break-downs and public/private network splits, is available through the IoT Forecast tool.

This report provides Transforma Insights’ view on the IoT market for Loss Prevention, predominantly in retail. This segment comprises two applications: Boundary Control and Goods Location Monitoring. Essentially, Boundary Control solutions include hard tags, ceiling-mounted and pedestal systems, detachers, deactivators, and labels. Goods Location Control include the use of GPS trackers generally hidden inside high-value goods. Brick-and-mortar businesses are facing a challenge to deter theft and protect them from financial losses. In 2021, US retailers witnessed USD95 billion worth of financial losses due to retail theft. Retailers are increasingly adopting multiple technologies and security solutions to protect their goods from internal and external theft. The use of Boundary Control and Goods Location Monitoring is essentially employed as a part of retail loss prevention strategies. Businesses implement tags, labels, and GPS trackers to mitigate theft. Also, businesses gain better inventory visibility throughout their supply chains. This can help in identifying out-of-stock goods in retail outlets, which can impact stores’ revenue. The report provides a detailed definition of the sector, analysis of market development and profiles of the key vendors in the space. It also provides a summary of the current status of adoption and Transforma Insights’ ten-year forecasts for the market. The forecasts include analysis of the number of IoT connections by geography, the technologies used (including splits by 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, LPWA, short range, satellite and others), as well as the revenue split between module, value-added connectivity and services.

For decades, satellites have been used to support a relatively limited set of use cases in IoT, specifically the monitoring of high value and highly remote assets. That satellite IoT market is set for a shot-in-the-arm in the coming decade as a result of two recent developments: the proliferation of LEO satellites and the arrival of cellular connectivity using ‘Non-Terrestrial Networks’. Companies are lining up to launch fleets of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites. The most eye-catching – and biggest – of these is SpaceX’s Starlink which has plans for over 40,000 satellites by 2027. But it is not alone. There are also smaller fleets focused on IoT, typically involving a few dozen satellites deployed by other newcomers. With a little over 3,000 active satellites currently in orbit, these massive deployments promise a vast increase in satellite capacity. In some cases, these LEO deployments are making use of standards-based cellular technology developed as part of the recent 3GPP Release 17. So too are some geostationary (GEO) satellites. The arrival of this Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) capability allows devices using some cellular technologies to connect directly to satellites without incorporating any other technology. They are also increasingly being integrated into combined offering of terrestrial and non-terrestrial cellular offerings. This creates an opportunity for Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) and IoT MVNOs to further stitch satellite into their proposition. Many already do, through multi-mode cellular/satellite devices. The new technology developments, with a common set of hardware and comparatively simple switch-over between terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks, allow for a simpler and cheaper proposition. This comes at a time when MNOs are looking for differentiators for their IoT offerings, and additional value-added services to layer onto cellular connectivity. Satellite offers an opportunity to do that. Specifically in the form of hybrid cellular/satellite propositions. In this report we examine the opportunities associated with specifically hybrid cellular/satellite offerings using 3GPP NTN.

How effective are IoT Marketplaces as a channel to market for IoT vendors?
- Internet of Things
- IoT
- marketplaces
Over the years there have been quite a few attempts at building ‘IoT marketplaces’, often using the (largely inappropriate) analogy of an app store. The aim has been to create an environment where potential buyers can pick from a portfolio – ranging from highly curated to very broad – of vendor offerings from individual components all the way to end-to-end managed services. These attempts have been mostly not particularly successful. The IoT marketplace has certainly not come to be recognised as the main mechanism through which enterprise customers procure IoT. However, IoT marketplaces persist and new versions are being deployed. In this scenario we think it is worth revisiting this part of IoT to see if there is really an opportunity for IoT vendors to reach new customers. In this report we explore examples of IoT marketplaces that are available today from hyperscalers, ERP/CRM vendors, systems integrators, resellers, distributors, MNOs/MVNOs and others. Based on this analysis, and examining other analogous elements of IoT, the report provides some conclusions about the dynamics of this part of the IoT space and what seems to be working (and not working). It goes on to consider what characteristics might be required of an IoT marketplace to make it a success. For IoT hardware the ‘marketplace’ in the form of distributors is a key part of the landscape. For solutions (and even other IoT elements such as connectivity and platforms) much less so. Partly this is because of the transactional nature of the hardware domain, partly because of the completeness of the offering, and partly because of the personas involved in making the different purchases. Connectivity could be ripe for presentation in a marketplace, but providers seem reticent to do so. Solutions are best presented in the context of a wider IT marketplace sitting alongside other tools equally applicable to the requirements of the vertical to which they’re targeted.
