挑战
Santa Cruz Bicycles 是一家总部位于加利福尼亚州的高端山地自行车制造商,在管理采购时间表以使其与制造计划保持一致方面面临着重大挑战。该公司从全球 100 多家供应商处采购零部件,并且很难及时收到运输途中零部件状态的更新信息。由于缺乏可见性,他们的团队很难保持一致并满足发布时间表。 Angela Jensen 和她的采购同事是 Santa Cruz Bicycles 采购团队的一员,负责从 150 家全球供应商那里采购零部件,以支持其在加州工厂的自行车组装。除了采购之外,他们的大部分时间还花在确保圣克鲁斯供应链的许多移动部件及时到达上。
解决方案
Santa Cruz Bicycles 借助 Flexport 来了解其供应链中每个移动部分的位置。 Flexport 的平台允许圣克鲁斯采购、接收和财务团队的不同成员访问他们所需的信息,确保通过轻松协作及时生产每辆自行车。在成功试用 Flexport 后,Santa Cruz 决定将 100% 以上的业务转移到该平台。 Flexport 提供的实时跟踪和货运数据为团队节省了大量时间。该平台还促进了圣克鲁斯供应商、其仓库接收和应付账款团队之间的协作。 Flexport 的报告和分析功能使 Santa Cruz 能够提取历史数据,例如每个 SKU 的到岸成本和集装箱利用率,以做出更具战略性的决策。

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.”
