Siemens Energy or Deutsche Telekom aren't short on engineers, but they still bring in outside partners for key pieces of their IoT platforms.

Why that happens, even to companies with plenty of resources, is what we dig into in our latest article. You'll find:

🔹 What gets outsourced in an IoT project, and what usually stays in-house
🔹 Where IoT projects most often break down, and why
🔹 How to tell a vendor who can ship a pilot from one who can run a fleet for years

Jaŭhien Dziemjačenka, our Head of Product Delivery, and Dmitry Fostiy, Head of IoT and Hardware Engineering, also shared their own take.

Telecom operators keep saying these days, but there is a twist – the same companies that build engineering muscle in-house still sign massive outsourcing contracts (think Vodafone UK or T-Mobile). They insource product strategy and core architecture, then hand legacy systems, BSS/OSS builds, and specialized work to outside partners.

Our new article breaks down the vendor evaluation criteria for oursourcing. We look at: domain expertise, delivery maturity, security posture, and the contract terms that protect your IP and data. We also include project-based insights from our Head of Delivery, Yauheni Dzemyachenka.

Where's the digital gap in your energy operations – field data, legacy systems, or getting an IoT pilot into production?

On August 25, Bamboo Agile will be at ONS in Stavanger 🇳🇴 to talk through exactly that.

If you're there too, let's connect! Reach out to Vladislav Herchykau to exchange perspectives on your technology projects.

Cellular IoT connections sit around 4.5 billion today and will approach 8 billion by 2031, per Ericsson. The growth means that operators no longer care how many SIMs they sell – but how far up the value chain they climb.

Our latest article maps four rungs for the climb: raw connectivity, connectivity management platforms, industry vertical solutions, and data as a product in its own right.

Along the way, we share the best industry cases for IoT in telecom, such as:

→ AT&T's nationwide 5G RedCap rollout that now covers 200+ million points of presence
→ Telefónica's Kite platform, past 51 million active connections across 190+ countries
→ Vodafone UK's coal-tracking project spanning 200 South African mines
→ A pharma cold-chain case that dropped spoilage from around 35% to under 1%.

We also break down six steps operators follow to move up that ladder – from scoring use cases against implementation effort to picking a billing model that matches how devices actually behave.

Over 40% of agentic AI projects will be canceled by the end of 2027, Gartner predicts.

Turns out, many use cases labeled ‘agentic’ today never needed to be. Current models often lack the maturity to reliably follow complex, nuanced instructions on their own, so teams end up paying for autonomy they don't actually use.

The quick check below won't give you a final answer, but it's a decent first pass. These five questions might help you get a rough sense of where your use case actually is ⬇️

Is it still not obvious, or do you know your box but aren't sure what to do next? Share your use case – we'll help you figure it out: https://bambooagile.eu/ourservices/ai-integration-services

In , the main issue stems from too much data arriving too late, from systems that do not talk to each other.

Our latest article breaks down real-world IoT deployments across the sector – from Duke Energy Corporation's self-healing grid to ENGIE's predictive maintenance platforms that saves €800,000 annually.

We cover:
- What IoT in energy means and how big its market is
- How energy IoT delivers outcomes that were not possible before
- Decisions and constraints operators face
- What to consider before implementation.

Also, our Embedded System IoT expert Egor Fostsiy shares why connected products will replace the term 'IoT' itself.

Your MVP may go one of two directions: it can beсome either a focused experiment that answers a critical product question, or just a smaller version of something you're not even sure people need. And that line is often defined by the consultant you bring in.

Some will challenge your assumptions and push back on what not to build. Others will help you ship faster but not necessarily learn anything meaningful.

Here's how to tell these types apart early: https://bambooagile.eu/insights/how-to-hire-mvp-development-consultant

When a software project fails, you rarely hear a crash. Rather, you hear 'Almost done' or 'Just a few small fixes'.

Then one day, you realize the project went off course months ago.

So, how do you pull a project back from disaster? 🤔

We asked Alexey Shinkarev, Engineering Manager at Bamboo Agile. He has led cross‑functional teams and knows how to save even the hardest of projects.

From Alexey: "Watch out for any team that immediately wants to throw out the old code and rebuild everything from scratch, especially if they start by trashing the previous developers. A good rescue team acts differently."
