BAUR has 3 large, fully automated logistics departments at three locations in Germany, responsible for controlling warehouse receiving docks, high-rack storage machinery, conveyor belts and sorting technology. BAUR wants to improve warehouse operation.

With new and more demanding regulations for radio communication in Europe, Olsbergs saw the opportunity to improve efficiency and safety for construction companies and crane operators. Typically, smaller cranes are constructed on the backs of trucks and operated by two workers. One person controls the hydraulics in the truck and the other acts as a spotter to ensure that the crane doesn’t bump into anything. Olsbergs recognized that the job could be done more efficiently and more safely with remote controlled hydraulics. But to construct such a controller would require a radio module that met both their extremely high standards as a company, and the tough ETSI standards.

VITAS sees mobile technology as the key to better connecting patients and caregivers. “Mobile technology will allow us to communicate information and route caregivers quickly and efficiently,” says Patrick Hale, senior vice-president and CIO at VITAS. “But before attempting revolutionary work, we needed to lay down the infrastructure.”Due to fast growth, the company lacked a strong, consolidated network. By standardizing on Cisco network and communication solutions, VITAS gains the stability and visibility that it needs to introduce new applications that bring together patients, families, and top-quality healthcare services.

Rising development and maintenance costs comprise the key business challenge of testing and verification for NASA IV&V. Because of their complexity and stringent safety requirements, most NASA projects take many years to come to fruition.

Inilex is a leader in providing mobile location based services has to perform operations on thousands of SIM cards each day. There are always new customers that needs their SIMs activated and some require suspension of services, and similarly some would want to have their services resumed. Having all these operations performed at their own end was a challenge for Inilex. They had to design a complete CRM and billing system to perform all these operations. And because of increasing number of customers, it had to be scalable enough as well.

For the operation of the warehouse, including goods receipt, high rack warehouse, sorting equipment and conveyor belts, BAUR uses multiple conveyor systems and 14 stacker cranes (RBG). These are monitored and controlled by more than 60 programmable logic controllers around the clock. The messages run in the central WinCC visualization system together in the control room. Baur wanted to avoid unnecessary travel and thus increase the efficiency of staff deployment and save time.

• Planning at the client’s end is done at Excel Sheets by planners on day to day basis (Elimination of manual activities in planning) • Multisite planning required for more visibility of all companies with single company in Baan • Constraints based finite Material planning • Simulation Capability with what-if analysis is required on day to day basis for users to simulate some situations like rush orders & their Impact on existing plan • Quota Arrangement to distribute planned supply orders between different supply sources • SIC planning for material movement between warehouses • Sales Commitment to customer should be more realistic based on capacity • Relation between sales orders and planned supply was required to see the complete chain from Purchase to Sales for demands • Firm Allocations of Supply orders to demand time phased inventory planning dynamically based on upcoming demand

A youth transportation service was developed and launched for a local community car-sharing service leveraging Sirqul's platform and technology.

Construction summaryLine 3 is built with total length of 35.86km, 18 stations, 1 depot, 2 parking lots, 2 master substations and 1 control center. Line 3 is designed to be south-north like a “Y”. The main branch starts from Guangzhou East Railway Station at north, extends to the south by Zhujiang along Tiyu West Road and ends at Fanyu Square along planning Fanyu Road. The sub-branch starts from Tianhe bus station at north and combines with the main branch at Tiyu West Road to the southeast along Wushan.

With the GHS regulations (GHS - Globally Harmonized System) the United Nations wanted to minimise the risks to human health and the environment arising from production, transport and the use of hazardous substances. Standardised danger symbols and texts now have to be used for the identification of chemicals around the world. 1200 quality products not only need to be produced, they also need to be stored and shipped in a professional manner. In April 2014, a dedicated team was set up to manage the changeover to the new GHS regulations under the umbrella of the PETROFER CHEMIE ICT (Information & Communication Technology) department. It was chaired by Roland Günther and Jonas Hartmann. They subjected the existing logistics and identification processes to some rigorous tests. They analysed and conceptualised.

The world’s premier shipping companies work with the software solutions of ABB Marine & Ports to get their vessels safely and efficiently to their destinations. A loyal customer of Wibu-Systems for over a decade, ABB has been relying on CodeMeter dongles to store the license keys for their ABB AbilityTM Marine Advisory System - OCTOPUS.The current version of the system is using Wibu-Systems’ robust metal-case CmStick ME, a perfect choice for the rugged conditions at sea. As satellite communications has made fast Internet connections at sea a common reality for maritime operators, the company is looking to move from physical to software solutions to streamline its logistics processes.
