4.5 [1] Types of M2M Consolidation Gerry Flynn, ATIS Delegation Verizon Communications, Director, Corporate Technology Meeting of Potential M2M Consolidation Partners #2 Washington, D.C. August 17-18, 2011 M2MCons02_11
Types of M2M Consolidation: Recap of Korea Discussions • Four Options were discussed in Korea as possible constructs for consolidation: • Option 1 : New Partnership Project for M2M global standards, using 3GPP/3GPP2 best practices as a starting point including the modifications needed to attract verticals • Option 2 : Consolidation into existing Partnership Project (e.g., 3GPP) [not seen as preferred option] • Option 3 : Consolidation into one existing SDO (e.g., ETSI) [not seen as preferred option] • Option 4 : New Global M2M “Initiative”
Types of M2M Consolidation • Option 1 : New Partnership Project (PP) for M2M global standards, using 3GPP/3GPP2 best practices as a starting point including the modifications needed to attract verticals. • The stakeholder community is different and more complex than that supported by the PP/PP2 organizations. • The vertical markets’ community is not “3GPP/3GPP2 literate.” • The vertical markets’ need to have input to, agree to and commit to a consolidation construct. • A consolidation construct to include the verticals would benefit from a fresh, non-telecom approach tailored to the needs of all stakeholders.
Types of M2M Consolidation • Option 2 : Consolidation into existing Partnership Project (e.g., 3GPP) • M2M standards consolidation must not disrupt the access and core network layer work taking place in 3GPP/3GPP2 • 3GPP is telecom-centric; and • Service layer work and verticals are not a good fit for 3GPP/3GPP2. • Not the preferred option for all the reasons on Option 1. • This was agreed in Korea as not being a preferred option.
Types of M2M Consolidation • Option 3 : Consolidation into one existing SDO • The complex M2M ecosystem is not fully represented in existing SDOs. • It would be difficult to devise criteria and a process to determine which SDO would be the most suitable candidate. • Current SDOs in discussions are mostly telecom-centric. • This was agreed in Korea as not being a preferred option.
Types of M2M Consolidation • Option 4 : New Global M2M “Initiative” • A new approach supports the creation of a consolidated construct that meets the needs of all stakeholders, including the unique requirements of a vast and diverse vertical marketplace. • It supports the opportunity to: • Balance regional and global needs and requirements ; • Discuss and define vertical markets’ requirements to deliver standards for a diverse set of services; and • Build the right structure, processes, logistics and practicality into the construct. • ATIS maintains that starting fresh with a new initiative enhances the opportunity to get the new construct right.
