  2. M2M Secretariat: Recap of Korea Discussions • The M2M Secretariat was not discussed in depth during the meeting in Korea. • There was no consensus on the secretariat structure, functions, or processes reached. • A range of views were expressed: • Details onsupport and management functions were shared; • References to the 3GPP model were frequently made; and • Emphasis was made on the need for a low cost secretariat, although sources of the secretariat support varied. • ATIS submitted that the discussion of the organization, secretariat, and logistics is premature. Cannot presume “if we build it, they will come.”

  3. Secretariat for M2M Consolidation • A Secretariat is based upon a structure, mission, scope, funding model, etc. – all thresholds to be defined and agreed upon before building the secretariat, its role, and functions. • ATIS maintains that there are certain principles that need to be met – if and when it is determined that a M2M consolidated construct will launch and needs a secretariat. They are as follows: • The secretariat role and functions need to be structured consistent with the structure of the consolidation and its relevant stakeholder community. • This activity may benefit from a fresh view given the stakeholder community and its potential complexity. • It is not clear at this time that 3GPP is the secretariat model to be used. • The vertical community is not “3GPP literate.”

  4. Secretariat for M2M Consolidation • The secretariat role needs to function cost-effectively. • The secretariat role needs to function with transparency. • Decisions -- ranging from the responsibilities/functions of the secretariat, to promotion and marketing, to the financial model, must be made by all key stakeholders. • The stakeholder community for M2M consolidation community is yet to be agreed to. • The secretariat would benefit from a decision-making model which is then supported by an appropriate funding model. • The secretariat would benefit from a new “brand.”

  5. Secretariat for M2M Consolidation • Discussion of the secretariat remains premature. • The verticals need to be part of the M2M consolidation and secretariat role planning. • The secretariat model structure, process, funding , brand, etc., would benefit from a fresh approach. • Once a commitment to consolidation and a structure is manifested by the vertical stakeholder community, the secretariat role can be defined. • Interim support can be provided as it is currently being provided.
