The IEEE, or the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, announced formal collaboration with the Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC) toward development of a comprehensive architecture for an interoperable Internet of Things (IoT). The Industrial Internet Consortium and the IEEE P2413 Architectural Framework for the Internet of Things (IoT) Working Group plan to share stakeholders' expertise on requirements for the industrial IoT and gaps in interoperability standards .

The Industrial Internet Consortium) is an open membership organization formed to accelerate the development, adoption and widespread use of interconnected machines and devices, intelligent analytics and people at work. Under terms of the liaison agreement with the IEEE P2413 working group, the Industrial Internet Consortium is to supply IoT requirements from the industrial perspective.

The IEEE P2413 working group, to provide the Industrial Internet Consortium with draft specifications for the standard that it is developing, as well as a gap analysis relative to current IoT standards. IEEE P2413 is envisioned as an architectural framework for IoT, proposing common definitions and a reference model that defines secure relationships among various IoT verticals (transportation, healthcare, etc.) and common architecture elements.
