Business Wire
Sierra Wireless (NASDAQ:SWIR) (TSX:SW), the leading provider of
fully integrated device-to-cloud solutions for the Internet of
Things (IoT), today announced that it has entered into a joint
business relationship with PwC Canada to help enterprises around
the world develop and launch transformative IoT services and new
business models.
The IoT is creating new service-oriented opportunities, driving
organizations to modernize so they can capitalize on growing
amounts of IoT data and provide an enhanced customer experience.
According to PwC Canada’s 2017 Global Digital IQ® Survey, 73
percent of organizations are making substantial investments in the
IoT.
The implementation of IoT solutions is very complex; many
projects lack a clear definition of use case, face significant
delays, go over budget or fail to launch all together. Together,
Sierra Wireless and PWC Canada can advise enterprises on IoT
transformation best practices and technologies, from articulating
the value proposition and building the business case, through to
implementation.
“Sierra Wireless has helped thousands of companies, large and
small, to join the IoT,” said René Link, CMO & SVP Corporate
Strategy, Sierra Wireless. “IoT transformation can be a very
complex process, and the combined expertise of Sierra Wireless and
PwC Canada will ensure the right technology and business insights
drive successful IoT implementations.”
