The document outlines 4 key considerations for successful M2M projects: 1) flexibility through support of different technologies, 2) investment protection through a platform strategy and value-added tools, 3) a modular concept enabling worldwide deployments through a cost-effective alternative to in-house development, and 4) installing, deploying and updating software over-the-air. It provides examples of M2M references and proof of concepts in industries like industrial asset management, transportation/logistics, and environmental monitoring.
