Harnessing ‘sales intelligence’ is a critical tool for technology vendors to better understand complex markets
- Artificial intelligence (AI)
- Internet of Things (IoT)
- complexity
- digital transformation
- sales intelligence
- marketing
Technology markets, like AI or IoT, and those involving digital transformation initiatives, are complex and constantly evolving. Maintaining a deep understanding of those markets via ongoing customer feedback is critical to organizations, yet increasingly challenging to do. Customers, which would have been able to provide the ultimate insider information, often aren’t interested in offering rich market insights. Third-party sources pulling data from customers and markets are helpful, but such data is static; its value is diminishing as contexts rapidly change. The capacity of data to offer robust insights into customers’ changing ultimately requires ‘boots on the ground’ i.e., human analysis and interpretation. An alternative rich – and often untapped – source of market intelligence exists in the form of an organization’s salespeople. Technical marketing teams seeking to gather ongoing feedback from markets should convert tacit sales ‘story’ data into organizational knowledge. This report describes the central importance of using this knowledge-to-value creation process to extract valuable insights from a company’s internal sales force in order to make sense (‘sensemaking’) of complex markets. It also offers the practical steps and tools for doing so.

This report provides Transforma Insights’ view on the IoT market for Disposable Devices. This segment comprises the tracking of items with single-use connected devices. Typically, this is conducted by manufacturers tracking items through third parties’ supply chains or vendors tracking parcels through postal or courier services. Manufacturers often look to monitor and track their high-value and theft-prone goods during transport. This becomes important for indicating when goods are damaged, tampered with, lost, or stolen during transit leading to loss and product rejection. As a result of rejected shipments, businesses will not only owe financial compensation to their customers but also face a negative impact on their business reputation. The use of low-cost disposable trackers can help in overcoming these challenges and businesses can limit their dependency on logistics partners for real-time monitoring of their shipments. The report provides a detailed definition of the sector, an 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 use of video monitoring solutions has unlocked significant improvements, from round-the-clock surveillance for security purposes to object detection, gesture detection, facial recognition, and motion tracking across industries to gain real-time business insights and prescriptive analysis. Using video analytics, businesses can unlock greater value by analysing spatial and temporal information, provide instant alerts in the event of anomaly detection, and take actions when rules are flouted. Business opportunities, deployment challenges, and stakeholder complexities vary across each application. The demand for video analysis is primarily driven by the benefits that it can bring like better operational efficiency, enhanced public safety, and decreased manual work. There is a wide range of applications that can make use of some or all of these business benefits to gain a competitive advantage and provide a quality service or product to the end-user. There are 23 applications, around 7% of the total applications found in our IoT forecast database, for which video analysis can potentially substitute for IoT devices. Livestock Monitoring, Traffic Monitoring, Parking Space Monitoring, Fire and Security Alarms, Patient Tracking, and Trigger devices are some of the key IoT applications which can be substituted with video analysis. As per our analysis, Security Alarms, Stock Level Monitoring, In-Vehicle Road Pricing Devices, and Fire Alarms are the top applications in terms of connected devices that can potentially be replaced by video analysis. The number of IoT devices for the above-mentioned applications is expected to grow from around 0.9 billion in 2022 to around 2.4 billion by 2032. Even though the share of IoT devices that can be replaced by video analytics is expected to be less than 10% during the forecast period, we cannot neglect the potential of video analysis due to its business benefits and varied use cases across applications. Additionally, in cases where video analytics can substitute for LPWA connections, this substitution may represent an upsell opportunity for mobile network operators and an opportunity to deploy a higher bandwidth connection.

Ambient IoT: An emerging technology and an alternative to RFID with potential to enable tens of billions of connections
- Ambient Computing
- Ambient IoT
- Backscatter communication
- Energy Harvesting
- IoT Pixels
- Passive Backscatter communication
- Zero Energy devices
Over the last 5 years, several communications standards bodies, starting with 3GPP and extending to IEEE and the Bluetooth SIG, have started to develop standards for ‘Ambient IoT’. The aim of the technology is to create ultra-low power, and in many cases battery-free, devices, using energy harvesting and forms of communication that piggyback on other RF sources through a technique known as backscattering. Backscattering is a communication technology that reflects ambient radiowaves to communicate with a receiver, thereby reducing the power required to communicate. Using this technology, Ambient IoT is likely to serve as an alternative for RFID and is significantly useful across multiple industry verticals such as agriculture, consumer, manufacturing, retail, utilities, transportation, and others. The resulting IoT devices are free from the monetary burden of batteries and also aid in environmental sustainability with reduce requirements for battery disposal. Ambient IoT technologies is still in a nascent stage. In this report we provide an overview of the concept, the enabling technologies, the standardisation activities that are currently under way and some of the key use cases where it will likely be useful. It also reviews some existing deployments and trials from Wiliot, HaiLa and Huawei.
