挑战
For OSRAM’s Corporate Treasury and Accounts Department, the group’s worldwide presence means organizing a complex network of bank accounts and banking partners in various currencies. In order to take care of transparency and regulatory compliance in this regard, a system is necessary to allow the automated and unitary execution of payments processing, bank statement, and accounts management. With OSRAM’s exit from the Siemens Group in July 2013, such a system was no longer available. At the same time, they faced the problem of having to deal with the settlement and documentation of exception requests in a paper-based form instead of via a software tool. This inevitably often led to the error-prone or delayed communication of information. Because the information on accounts and payment transactions was also stored in a variety of locations, it was hard to organize data analyses and central monitoring. Central data storage for all account-related information was needed to provide maximum transparency through the central management of all information. At the same time, the internal business processes should be standardized as far as possible through automated workflows.
关于客户
OSRAM is one of the world’s most traditional brand names and is synonymous with light around the globe. OSRAM’s portfolio covers almost the entire value chain from components – including optical semiconductors such as light-emitting diodes (LED) – to lightings, lighting management systems, and illumination solutions. In the 2014 financial year, the OSRAM Group’s 33,800 employees generated revenues of €5,142 million. For OSRAM’s Corporate Treasury and Accounts Department, the group’s worldwide presence means organizing a complex network of bank accounts and banking partners in various currencies.
解决方案
OSRAM found a solution for executing such tasks in an automated fashion via a unitary platform in Bank Account Manager (BAM) from TIS. The SaaS (software as a service) platform for efficient and secure bank account management constitutes a central database for the storage and analysis of all bank account-related information. Regularly reoccurring business processes such as the opening and closing of bank accounts or the communication of attestations can be modeled as standardized workflows within this setup – and at the same time, the workflows in TIS are open enough to allow possibilities for individual adaptation. It was particularly important for OSRAM that the TIS BAM could be implemented as a fully web-based platform, without requiring the support of the internal IT function. No software had to be installed in-house to enable high-performance access by all of the company worldwide. This facilitated a fast and uncomplicated roll-out of the solution in the entire group. BAM started in March 2014, according to schedule, with the first successful CFO bank statement attestation in the live operational environment.

Remote Temperature Monitoring of Perishable Goods Saves Money
RMONI was facing temperature monitoring challenges in a cold chain business. A cold chain must be established and maintained to ensure goods have been properly refrigerated during every step of the process, making temperature monitoring a critical business function. Manual registration practice can be very costly, labor intensive and prone to mistakes.

Leveraging the IoT to Gain a Competitive Edge in International Competition
Many large manufacturers in and outside Japan are competing for larger market share in the same space, expecting a growing demand for projectors in the areas of entertainment, which requires glamor and strong visual performance as well as digital signage that can attract people’s attention. “It is becoming more and more difficult to differentiate ourselves with stand-alone hardware products,” says Kazuyuki Kitagawa, Director of Service & Support at Panasonic AVC Networks. “In order for Panasonic to grow market share and overall business, it is essential for us to develop solutions that deliver significant added value.” Panasonic believes projection failure and quality deterioration should never happen. This is what and has driven them to make their projectors IoT-enabled. More specifically, Panasonic has developed a system that collects data from projectors, visualizes detailed operational statuses, and predicts issues and address them before failure occurs. Their projectors are embedded with a variety of sensors that measure power supply, voltage, video input/ output signals, intake/exhaust air temperatures, cooling fan operations, and light bulb operating time. These sensors have been used to make the projector more intelligent, automatically suspending operation when the temperature rises excessively, and automatically switching light bulbs. Although this was a great first step, Panasonic projectors were still not equipped with any capability to send the data over a network.
