Abstract
The paper presents the development of a pricing strategy for a company that develops a sensor monitoring app leveraging IoT and AI technologies to enhance operational efficiency and connectivity. In alignment with the company's client objectives of predicting failures and improving operational engagement, the app's development followed a structured process. This process encompassed a Customer Value Proposition Workshop, Scenario and Affordance Analyses, Client Validation, Features Analysis, and Pricing Strategy. Through these steps, critical customer needs were identified and integrated into the app's features, supported by iterative feedback from the company's engineering department. Affordance theory was adopted as the theoretical lens and was proven instrumental in identifying how IoT can achieve operational goals by guiding the app's feature development. The pricing strategy employed value-based bundling and psychological pricing to enhance market appeal. This research highlights the transformative potential of IoT and AI in engineering consultancy, driving tailored solutions and operational excellence.
