Brief introduction to the machine to machine (m2m) market

m2m technology establishes wireless communication between machines and the information centre of a business. Examples where this technology might be used include automated meter reading, fleet management, healthcare, industrial automation and tracking / logistics and many others.

The goal of m2m is to enable applications that allow businesses to increase productivity and competitiveness. It makes existing data available in real time, computers process the information, information becomes valuable and enables services for better planning, surveillance of processes, locating of people and things or remote control of machinery. At the heart of each m2m implementation is a communication module.

The international market for machine-to-machine (m2m) wireless communications was estimated to be worth $842m in 2010 (Beecham Research). They expect it to grow at high-teens in the period 2009 - 2014 (Beecham Research) because the clear business benefits of the technology - increased productivity and efficiency - are making it almost compulsory. Businesses that historically were not interested in m2m wireless solutions are now looking to incorporate this technology in their business to ensure that any expansion and modernisation is done as efficiently and profitably as possible.
