Tour:AIoT Executive Summary
Part 1: Introduction
The AIoT Framework
The AIoT Framework provides good practices and a common language for teams implementing AIoT-enabled products and solutions. The "Why", "What", "Who" and "How" perspectives provide business and technology leaders with a 360 perspective on how to successfully implement AIoT.
AIoT - Why
The "Why" perspective must answer why a company is embarking on the AIoT journey. What is the purpose? And what are the expected AIoT-enabled business outcomes?
AIoT - Why
For AIoT-enabled products, the KPIs are usually related to product revenue and useability. For AIoT-enabled solutions, the KPIs are usually focusing on efficiency and optimization.
AIoT - Why
For AIoT-enabled products, the expected KPI-improvements along the product value chain have to be carefully evaluated and prioritized. Keep in mind that AIoT has the potential to fundamentally change the value chain in the first place, resulting in completely new KPIs as well.
AIoT - What
The "What" perspective must answer what kind of new products, solutions or new features should be realized utilizing AIoT.
AIoT - What
The "What"-perspective must differentiate between highly standardized products and ad-hoc solutions. Both will have very different requirements from the execution and delivery perspective.
AIoT - What
Finally, it is important to understand exactly what kind of AI-enabled features can be added to the physical assets. While the details of the specific AI algorithm will be determined later in the project, the expectations on the AI should be validated as early as possible.
AIoT - Who
Understanding and managing the different stakeholders effectively is an important success factor for any project, this is not different in AIoT.
AIoT - Who
The AIoT Framework is providing tools and advise for product managers, project and program managers, development and engineering managers, architects, security and safety specialists, and procurement managers. It also helps to manage internal and external stakeholders.
AIoT - How
The AIoT implementation perspective must look at all the different aspects you will find in any kind of IT project, and combine them with the AI and IoT-specific aspects.
AIoT - How
The "How"-perspective must address the AI and IoT-specific aspects of the business model, leadership and AIoT organization, sourcing, co-innovation, many functional and technical aspects (architecture, data strategy, AIoT DevOps, etc.), and finally legal and compliance.
Case Studies
The AIoT Framework team is currently working on a number of different case studies to validate the framework, and provide reference points.
