About The Customer
Y.Share is a company that was founded in 2016 with the goal of helping public and private fleet managers achieve their ecological, economic, and safety goals. They do this by providing innovative vehicle sharing and management solutions. The company is headquartered in Milan, Italy and operates in the fleet services industry. Y.Share's offerings revolve around two pillars – a telematics solution for heavy vehicles with the onboard DST Pro device and sharing service for corporate fleets using the EasY.Box IoT key locker. The company has managed over 3000 vehicles, tracked over 250 million kilometers, and analyzed over 7 million operating hours. They have helped fleet managers throughout Italy cut down on 9.5 million liters of fuel usage, equivalent to 3,500 tons of CO2 and 132,000 planted trees.
The Challenge
Y.Share, founded in 2016, aims to help public and private fleet managers achieve their ecological, economic, and safety goals with innovative vehicle sharing and management solutions. Reliable connectivity is the foundation of Y.Share’s solution to monitor fleet operations and manage vehicle access in real-time. However, even when using the strongest network signals, issues are not always ruled out. Having a versatile tool for troubleshooting and counteracting when this occurs is business-critical. For agile, high-growth companies like Y.Share, connectivity management tasks pertain to not only technical and operations teams but also other non-technical teams when the situation calls for it.
The Solution
Y.Share uses EMnify's products including the Multi-network IoT SIM and EMnify Portal. The Multi-network IoT SIM provides stable connections for real-time fleet management. The EMnify Portal allows for simple monitoring and control of SIM and device connections. The DST Pro device, connected with the vehicle Controller Area Network (CAN Bus), collects various information on the vehicle dynamics, including brakes, acceleration, fuel consumption, vehicle type, and kilometers traveled. Using Y.Share’s worldwide patented algorithms, the Y.Platform analyzes this data and generates real-time feedback on the driving style quality to drivers via an LED interface. The EasY. Box introduces a simple, modular IoT locker for key sharing and vehicle booking. From a web app, users can book the vehicle and access the key box with ease.

Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
