3G mobile-phone woes The introduction of third-generation faces technical and financial difficulties. M2M System Telematics Consultants
Pass the painkillers DO MOBILE phones cause headaches? In the case of third-generation (3G) telephones, the answer is undoubtedly yes—even though nobody is yet using them. Instead, they are causing technical and financial pain for all the companies around the world that are trying to build 3G networks. The idea behind 3G was to offer subscribers exciting new features, such as video clips and high-speed Internet access, for which they would be prepared to pay far more than they now do. Operators have spent vast sums—around $125 billion in Europe alone—buying licences to enable them to offer such services (see chart), and have run up huge debts in the process. Building the networks will cost about the same again. It is a huge gamble—and one that is looking riskier by the minute. This has serious financial repercussions. Given the expense of the 3G licences and infrastructure, the operators want to launch their services and start generating revenue as quickly as possible. But the uncertainty has hit their share prices; and the debt burden has led to cuts in their credit ratings that have made it harder for them to raise money. Britain’s BT, for instance, was forced to sell prized Japanese and Spanish assets to Vodafone this week, to reduce the massive debts it incurred when buying 3G licences. BT, whose long-serving chairman, Sir Iain Vallance, stood down last week, now plans a huge rights issue that may further upset its long-suffering shareholders. Worse even than these cash travails, the initial projections of how much operators could expect to charge for 3G services now look highly optimistic. It has become clear that 3G will take far longer than expected to become profitable, so operators will sink deeper into debt along the way. Amid all this uncertainty, it is clear that it will be several painful years, rather than months, before 3G becomes widely available. Even if the operators can meet their debt burdens and build the networks, it is not at all certain that they will be able to make much money from them. Today’s headaches might then seem mild compared with those that are to come.
What the future might hold • No market growth • SOW (Share of wallet) not increasing • All playes offer same • Mobile communication becomes a comodity • Mobile com just another utility • Customers wants more for less • Technology migration require heavy investments • ARPU likely to decrease M2M System Telematics Consultants

recognising the opportunity • within the next ten years, telemetry in its various guises will reach into all areas of industry i.e. food, retail, leisure engineering and transport • invasive as mobile voice currently is today • Eventually everything will be connected M2M System Telematics Consultants
a glimpse into the future • telecom will pervade all aspects of life • human to human • human to machine • machine to machine • machine to human communication interaction transaction control building the connected world M2M System Telematics Consultants
What is Telematics • The fourth phase of the IT revolution • All devices communicate • Geography becomes irrelevant • Enables ”Business in real time” • A Productivity driver • Drives re-engineering and new business models A new tool for mankind M2M System Telematics Consultants
Wireless End to End Wireless Telemetry solutions Computing Internet Source Ericsson
Three phases of wireless Step one (in progress) Extending existing systems and processes to the field. Nissan saves 40% on sales costs by giving wireless access to pricing and inventory. HBOC (drugs) reduced incorrect shipments by 80% through wireless in their warehouses Step 2 (in development) Re-engineering business. NTT DoCoMo increased vending operator’s profits 70% by introducing Cashless Payment . Teclion saved 50% of service visits by remote monitoring. Step three (tomorrow) Creation of new business models that would not have been possible without wireless
Sounds great, but how do we get to making money • Understanding the market • End customers • Intermediary • Competitors • Environment • Economics • Understanding the application • Value chains • Players • Change drivers • Enablers • Technical requirements M2M System Telematics Consultants
understanding who has to be involved • It's like a team • the different players and the interaction between them is referred to as "the value chain" M2M System Telematics Consultants
the value chain supplier systems integrator service supplier network operator end user M2M System Telematics Consultants
the value chain • it's very complex • many interested parties • a lack of standards • specialists and ways of working are specific to particular vertical markets • however overall framework is similar in all markets M2M System Telematics Consultants
