挑战

4flow 是全球领先的供应链咨询、软件和第四方物流 (4PL) 服务提供商，面临着重大挑战。该公司正在应对与先前计划的运输流程的偏差迅速增加的问题。及早发现这些偏差对于避免额外成本和保持效率至关重要。然而，如果没有实时数据，实现绝对的供应链可视性是一项艰巨的任务。作为不以车队为基础的中立 4PL，4flow 无法访问实时运输数据。缺乏可见性导致效率低下，并因偏差和例外情况而增加成本，例如逾期处罚和争议管理成本。在最坏的情况下，它会导致供应链中断的时间延长。迟发现的延误意味着采取预防措施所需的时间被浪费，可能导致滞纳金和罚款。如果供应链合作伙伴之间未自动交换运输状态数据，则还需要承运商、客户和运输计划人员之间进行手动通信。

解决方案

为了应对这些挑战，4flow 与 Shippeo 合作，将实时跟踪信息纳入 4flow 综合运输管理系统 (iTMS)。 Shippeo 的实时运输可视性使 4flow 能够提高供应链透明度，并利用数据提高托运人、承运人和最终客户的效率。将实时跟踪信息集成到 4flow 的 IT 系统中，创建了更早识别偏差所需的数据层，从而降低了额外成本并释放了实时跟踪的生产力和服务优势。现在，4flow 的运输执行团队可以立即追踪单个零件，直至运输该零件的卡车。获得的信息和透明度可以随时与客户共享。这种实时数据和优化的预计到达时间 (ETA) 计算，再加上 4flow 对供应链优化的深刻理解，有助于为 4flow 和 Shippeo 的共同客户构建更有弹性、更高效的供应链。

运营影响

The partnership with Shippeo has significantly enhanced 4flow's operational efficiency. The integration of real-time tracking information into the iTMS has enabled 4flow teams monitoring customers' logistics networks to detect deviations much earlier, thus reducing additional transportation costs. This has led to a significantly more efficient exception management. Resource utilization at warehouses and loading points was also improved, reducing transportation costs by double digits. The increased supply chain visibility has also increased efficiency and full transparency for carriers, customers, and transportation planners. The accurate time of arrival calculations enable 4flow to optimally support its customers and assess impacts on processes and production faster. The real-time data and optimized ETA calculation, combined with 4flow’s deep understanding of supply chain optimization, are helping to build more resilient and efficient supply chains.

Cutting-edge Predictive Analytics for HIROTEC Group

Hirotec needed to ensure continuous operations and to minimize unplanned downtime in its manufacturing facilities. Unplanned downtime is costly and compromises Hirotec's ability to deliver its goods to customers on time.

Digitize Railway with Deutsche Bahn

To reduce maintenance costs and delay-causing failures for Deutsche Bahn. They need manual measurements by a position measurement system based on custom-made MEMS sensor clusters, which allow autonomous and continuous monitoring with wireless data transmission and long battery. They were looking for data pre-processing solution in the sensor and machine learning algorithms in the cloud so as to detect critical wear.

Cold Chain Transportation and Refrigerated Fleet Management System

1) Create a digital connected transportation solution to retrofit cold chain trailers with real-time tracking and controls. 2) Prevent multi-million dollar losses due to theft or spoilage. 3) Deliver a digital chain-of-custody solution for door to door load monitoring and security. 4) Provide a trusted multi-fleet solution in a single application with granular data and access controls.

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).

IoT-based Fleet Intelligence Innovation

Speed to market is precious for DRVR, a rapidly growing start-up company. With a business model dependent on reliable mobile data, managers were spending their lives trying to negotiate data roaming deals with mobile network operators in different countries. And, even then, service quality was a constant concern.
