Installation and Maintenance fee are not neglictable  ROI to be targeted between 2 to 4 years  Success stories in Europe, USA, Australia. Projects on-going in China, India, Thailand. Cost / Investment  Minimize Looses (efficiency & theft)  Billing Improvement (Prepayement, variable fares)  Customer Profiling & New Services Saving / Return Global Trend

8. WAVECOM©2005. All rights reserved 8 Total Cost of Ownership Cost Structure depending on Technology  Total cost of ownership depends on 3 factors – Type of technology used – Density – How much you want to interact with meter (Meter management)  Cellular technologies (GSM/GPRS, CDMA) is usually the winner −Win on field maintenance (Carrier QOS) −Win on Installation and Project Management against RF and PLC. −Easy and cost effective integration of data (TCP/IP) −Real AMM (open to new services, IP device, HTTP)

9. WAVECOM©2005. All rights reserved 9 Total Cost of Ownership What are the main cost driver?  Ask yourself the following simple questions before selecting a Wireless AMR/AMM solution vendor: – How long will my application be operating in the field? (1 year, 5 years, 15 years) – What is the probability that my own application software will never need to be upgraded? – How much does it cost me to upgrade an application? Deinstallation – Shipping – Upgrade – Shipping – Reinstallation $50, $100, $250, $500, $1000? – What is the best way to protect my business against the risk that my application may suddenly stop working, for whatever reason?
