NEW YORK, June 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Deloitte today announced new, joint Internet of Things offerings with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE), including:

Turnkey IoT solution for manufacturing;
Smart Retail solution to boost in-store conversion rates and improve consumers' shopping experiences;
Smart Workplace solution to digitally connect co-workers around the world; and
Smart Venue solution for stadiums to enhance the fan experience.

Deloitte will provide the consulting services relating to these offerings, including IoT and cybersecurity, drawing upon its experience in leading business transformations, developing technology strategy and implementing managed services.

In order to help industrial customers monitor their machine assets, this turnkey solution — using technology and services from HPE, National Instruments, PTC and Deloitte — computes and analyzes conditions and performance data right on the factory floor. The solution can then produce predictive maintenance analytics and help identify machine failures. Businesses can improve productivity, reduce unplanned downtime and lower costs as a result.

Deloitte and HPE are also leveraging the power of IoT to improve the customer experience and increase in-store conversation rates for retail locations. Using targeted intelligence including wayfinding, real-time offers, automated checkouts and digital signage, stores can become smarter about their customers and monetize their data. Retailers using IoT can free up in-store resources, enhance the in-store customer experience and improve overall operational efficiency.

Smart Workplace enables organizations to create their own digitally-connected offices, linking employees to both their work and their colleagues no matter where they are physically located in the world. The solution blurs individual and team space, which can contribute to more unified work experiences and greater collaboration.

Smart Venue helps bring stadiums and conference centers to life with location-aware technology. The technology serves targeted advertisements to attendees based on user profiles, designed to enhance the overall experience and increase revenue for venue owners and stakeholders.

"Deloitte is working with HPE to bring leading IoT services and offerings to market, which we will showcase at HPE Discover 2017 in Las Vegas," said Todd Paris, managing director, Deloitte Consulting LLP, and technology and digital experience practice lead, Deloitte Digital. "Deloitte's depth in technology consulting, combined with HPE's intelligent edge infrastructure, have the potential to revolutionize the IoT space — helping our clients to increase revenues and lower the risk of lost productivity."

"By working with Deloitte, and utilizing our Edgeline Converged Edge Systems, we can simplify the process of analysis, storage and connectivity, generating insights in real time — right at the edge. Customers can get the data they need, when they need it, to take action faster than ever before," said Olivier Suinat, senior vice president, global sales, HPE.
