Flagship engagement · Annual retainer
Managed Connectivity
Evolution.
The standing problem in IoT connectivity is not any one technology transition. It is the rate at which transitions arrive, and the gap between what an internal team can absorb and what the frontier demands. Managed Connectivity Evolution closes that gap, continuously.
Why this engagement exists
One-off projects leave you behind by the time they end.
Every IoT company eventually hires a consultant. Selection happens, an RFP is run, a migration is scoped, the work gets done. Two years later the landscape has shifted, the consultant is gone, and the architecture that was modern at signing is now constraining the next product.
We built Managed Connectivity Evolution around a different premise: the connectivity layer of an IoT business is too strategically important to be outsourced episodically. It needs continuous expert attention. Most teams cannot justify that headcount internally, and most consultancies cannot deliver it economically. ENODA is built to fill exactly that gap.
The four phases
A loop, not a line.
Diagnose
Establish ground truth. Where the architecture sits, where the frontier is, what the gap costs.
- Architecture audit across SIM technology, eUICC posture, carrier topology, certification footprint, and device lifecycle.
- Commercial review of carrier contracts, MVNO arrangements, platform agreements, and unit economics.
- Frontier mapping: an explicit register of in-flight standards and vendor moves that will affect you in the next 24 to 36 months.
- A written diagnosis the engineering and finance functions can both work from.
Sequence
A staged migration plan paced to product cycles, contract windows, and organisational capacity.
- Move ordering: which transitions go first, which can be deferred, which need to happen in parallel.
- Decision gates tied to your existing planning cadence, not imposed on top of it.
- Cost modelling across the sequence, with sensitivity analysis on the variables that actually move the answer.
- Contract sequencing so commercial windows align with technical execution.
Execute
We sit on your side of the table for the work that requires deep expertise and direct vendor engagement.
- Carrier negotiation and rate plan design across single, multi, and orchestrated topologies.
- eUICC and SGP.32 integration, including in-factory profile provisioning where it shortens time to revenue.
- Certification streamlining across FCC, IC, PTCRB, and operator certification programs.
- Vendor management and integration oversight for EIM, SM-DP+, and connectivity management platforms.
Watch
The phase that distinguishes a one-off project from continuous evolution.
- Standing surveillance of GSMA standards work, vendor roadmaps, and commercial terms in your relevant geographies.
- Quarterly written briefings on what changed, what it means for you, and what to do about it.
- An always-current next-move register, so when something breaks or accelerates, the response is already designed.
- Direct access for ad-hoc questions, market intelligence, and second opinions on internal proposals.
What's included
Annual retainer, calibrated to scope.
Strategic governance
- Quarterly strategic review with leadership
- Annual evolution roadmap update
- Standing access for executive consultation
Operational depth
- Technical architecture office hours, monthly
- Vendor and carrier management support
- Direct involvement in major commercial negotiations
Intelligence layer
- Quarterly frontier brief, written
- Real-time alerts on material standards or vendor moves
- Benchmarking against peer architectures and pricing
Execution support
- Implementation oversight on any project we recommend
- Optional hands-on integration work, scoped separately
- Vendor introductions across our carrier and platform network
Commercial structure: annual retainer with quarterly review and exit. Pricing is calibrated to the size of the connected fleet, the complexity of the commercial structure, and the geographic footprint. Talk to us about your situation and we'll come back with a structured proposal.
Who this is for
Not for everyone, by design.
This engagement fits:
- Companies operating between roughly 50,000 and 5 million connected devices, across one or more product lines.
- Leaders who recognise connectivity as a strategic concern, not a procurement task.
- Teams without a dedicated head of connectivity, or with one who needs senior peer review.
- Boards or investors who want independent oversight on a major technical line item.
It does not fit:
- Pre-product startups still validating the use case.
- Companies looking for a one-time RFP run; that's our Advisory tier.
- Buyers who want a connectivity reseller relationship without strategic involvement; that's our Multi-Carrier tier.
