About The Customer
ROB is designed for users who frequently use green transportation for their commute. It caters to individuals who bike, use Lime scooters, or simply prefer to walk around town. The app rewards users for every kilometer traveled using eco-friendly modes of transport, encouraging them to continue using green transportation. Users can redeem their rewards for discounts on future trips, sustainable gift cards, or donate to associations fighting against global warming. The app also allows users to discover new and green ways to move around and outside their city.
The Challenge
ROB, a flyer program for green transportation in France, was founded by two engineers, David and Thibaut. They had a vision to encourage green transportation by rewarding users for every kilometer traveled using eco-friendly modes of transport. However, they faced the challenge of building an app that could seamlessly integrate with various mobility services, track users' travels, and reward them accordingly. They also needed to ensure that the app could securely connect with users' credit cards for reward redemption. The challenge was not just to build the app, but to do it quickly and efficiently to test the product and launch it in the market.
The Solution
David and Thibaut chose Bubble, a no-code platform, to build their app. Bubble's powerful tools enabled them to create a fully customizable web application that could integrate with various mobility services and banking systems. Users could connect their credit cards to the app, earn rewards for every travel made using green transportation, and redeem those rewards for discounts on future trips or sustainable gift cards. The app also allowed users to donate their rewards to associations fighting against global warming. The no-code platform allowed the co-founders to test their product faster and launch it on May 31st, 2021. They also implemented a banking aggregator on Bubble, a technology certified by BANQUE DE FRANCE (French Banking authorities).

Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.

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).
