Triggering events can signal an IOT opportunity. Which two options are examples of triggering events that are caused by expansions? (Choose two).

Question

Options

• AA company purchases a new fleet.
• BA city is awarded a grantto implement new traffic management.
• CA city wants a faster bus service system.
• DA company created a new filing system.

• A
  71% (25)
• C
  9% (3)
• D
  20% (7)

Explanation

Options A and B are correct because both represent expansion-type triggering events - situations where an organization is growing or adding new assets/programs that create a natural IoT opportunity. Purchasing a new fleet (A) means new physical assets that can be monitored, tracked, and optimized through IoT sensors. Receiving a grant for traffic management (B) represents an expansion of city infrastructure funding, which opens the door for smart city IoT deployments.

Option C ("faster bus service") is a pain point, not an expansion - the city is reacting to an existing problem rather than growing. Option D ("new filing system") is an internal process change, which is a new initiative type of trigger, not growth-related expansion.

Memory tip: Think of "expansion" triggers as moments when something new is being added - new vehicles, new funding, new locations. If the scenario describes frustration with something existing, it's a pain point; if it's a brand-new internal change, it's an initiative. When you see words like purchases, awarded, opens, or acquires, that's your expansion signal.
