World of IoT is a maze of proprietary solutions that are usually designed to address a problem in silos – you can have an alarm system application that reads the sensors and notifies the user in case of an issue while another standalone application is focused on the heating system only.
Accenture will demonstrate how standardizing sensor signals onto one unified flow of data through Azure IoT Hub, eventually Google or AWS, and connecting these onto Salesforce Field Service can streamline the work with a customer, including a technician dispatch in case of some defined unexpected situation at client or own site.
This data unification and process standardization is paramount for large corporations that are looking for one global solution for both sensor reading and field service. Come and see how Accenture has addressed these topics that may apply to you as well.

1. Accenture Salesforce IoT Accelerator
Using Google, MS Azure and AWS IoT Platforms to tame the maze of sensors & their output data into unified data
stream that connects to Salesforce, creating one-stop shop (field) service application for customer & their clients.

What if devices could help
provide a better customer
service? We would like to
show you that they can – even
automatic sometimes. What if
Accenture could build and re-
use the same components for
similar clients and reduce
delivery times by 20-30%

From complexity and multitude of proprietary applications designed for sensor signal reading and notifications in siloed point topics to a standardized
platform that unifies the data streams for all possible scenarios on one user interface across all communication channels and devices.
IoT-driven Customer Service
Challenge
• Diverse world of IoT and its siloed proprietary applications.
• Scalability, security and standards compliance is usually an afterthought.
• Disparate notifications, usually through limited communication channels and automation options.
Solution
• Unify the data streams and communication from diferent sensors on key IoT Platforms.
• Connect to Salesforce.com and automate the processes.
• Adapt to a different client maturity.
Benefits
• Accenture to be client‘s OneStopShop from device performace to customer service E2E process.
• Built on globally recognized standards for security, scalability and compliance.
• Faster Time-to-Market for the client and better build time for Accenture.

IoT devices send the data to unified

Pre-deployed rules evaluates various
telemetric inputs (temperature, pressure,
humidity..) and forwards relevant data
via native CRM connector.
CRM enriches with the customer
data and applies specific
evaluation rules (e.g. temperature
over threshold for over certain
period of time) and creates event

Where is the Accelerator Innovation?
Set of integrated re-usable assets and rules deployed among client agnostic environments.
Automates all from sensor onboarding to
process creation and implementation in
field service & communities (using
components and process flows)
Reuses & Recycles already built product
(SF managed package) as accelerator for
similar clients within the same industry –
better build time = faster time-to-market for
customer
Creates and maintains Component &
