挑战
英国浴室电子商务品牌 Victoria Plum 在 Covid-19 大流行造成的全球混乱中,在管理其多元化的大型供应链方面面临着重大挑战。该公司的运营涉及多个制造商,每个制造商都面临着独特的供应链挑战,这使得确保同时制造、运输和向客户交付一系列浴室用品的过程变得相当复杂。目标是通过一次订单和一次交货为客户提供无缝体验,无论货物来自多个工厂和地点。然而,随着 2020 年初全球海洋容量下降,确保设备可用且放置在正确的位置成为了 Victoria Plum 面临的挑战。该公司在满足运输时间、避免库存短缺和确保订单准确性方面还面临困难。
解决方案
Victoria Plum 与物流技术提供商 Flexport 合作,改进其供应链管理和交付流程。 Flexport 的平台在管理集装箱和运输途中的货物方面发挥了重要作用。在使用 Flexport 之前,Victoria Plum 必须就各个集装箱逐一联系不同的托运人,以了解货物的状态,由于时区差异,这可能需要几天的时间。借助 Flexport,所有对话都在平台上进行,从而实现了更定期的供应商沟通并改善了关系。 Flexport 的订单管理解决方案还通过自动化采购订单 (PO) 报告帮助 Victoria Plum 的供应链团队为业务创造更多价值。这每天为团队节省了两个多小时,使他们能够快速识别任何需要预订的货物,并将新获得的空闲时间用于为业务创造更大的价值。

Case Study
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.

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.

Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.

Case Study
3M Gains Real-Time Insight with Cloud Solution
The company has a long track record of innovative technology solutions. For example, 3M helps its customers optimize parking operations by automating fee collection and other processes. To improve support for this rapidly expanding segment, 3M needed to automate its own data collection and reporting. The company had recently purchased the assets of parking, tolling, and automatic license plate reader businesses, and required better insight into these acquisitions. Chad Reed, Global Business Manager for 3M Parking Systems, says, “With thousands of installations across the world, we couldn’t keep track of our software and hardware deployments, which made it difficult to understand our market penetration.” 3M wanted a tracking application that sales staff could use to get real-time information about the type and location of 3M products in parking lots and garages. So that it could be used on-site with potential customers, the solution would have to provide access to data anytime, anywhere, and from an array of mobile devices. Jason Fox, Mobile Application Architect at 3M, upped the ante by volunteering to deliver the new app in one weekend. For Fox and his team, these requirements meant turning to the cloud instead of an on-premises datacenter. “My first thought was to go directly to the cloud because we needed to provide access not only to our salespeople, but to resellers who didn’t have access to our internal network,” says Fox. “The cloud just seemed like a logical choice.”
