The Challenge
Bigmate, a company that primarily deals with the Internet of Things (IoT) or more specifically, the Internet of Assets (IoA), faced a significant challenge. The company's telematics platform provides real-time vehicle tracking, data analysis, and tools that scale vertically or horizontally. However, new and emerging telematics applications, such as vehicle engine monitoring, were driving the need for customer accessible dashboards and reporting. With data generated as frequently as once a second, delivering visualizations that bring clarity was a crucial requirement. The main objective was to find a product that would enable them to solve their customers' problems effectively.

About The Customer
Bigmate's customers are businesses that require real-time tracking and data analysis solutions. These businesses are looking to cut operating expenses or increase revenue and need a way to identify problems in these areas. They require a solution that can provide them with a holistic view of all the information being collected from their assets, and present it in a way that is meaningful and insightful. Bigmate's customers also require a scalable solution that can handle data generated as frequently as once a second and deliver clear visualizations.
The Solution
Bigmate's solution was to help customers determine their business requirements, which are usually cutting operating expenses or increasing revenue. The company then worked to identify a problem in one of these areas and to display data in a way that the customer wants to see it so they can come up with a cost-effective, IoT-driven solution. TIBCO Jaspersoft® embedded BI has enabled Bigmate to consume IoT and IoA data and blend it to deliver answers to business problems. The company presents a holistic view of all the information being collected from sensors. By implementing the Jaspersoft® system as its reporting solution, Bigmate retained customers by solving problems it previously couldn't, tripled its product offerings, and added new customers.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
