挑战
As the company transitioned from a single market focus to becoming a digitalized global enterprise, rapidly growing data complexity became a major threat to the business. The company needed to manage complex product life cycles, control financial and human risks, and work with dozens of independent systems. Earlier attempts to solve these problems with a small data science team focusing on production had promising results. But the company quickly ran aground of business and technology liabilities, such as: human errors in manually coded models, scalability bottlenecks, burgeoning data volumes, and an inability to achieve real-time data processing goals.
关于客户
The company is a global industrial powerhouse. Born of humble origins with a focus on a single market, this leading manufacturer in advanced coatings, aerospace, automotive, electronics, and energy systems operates a vast production network across international boundaries. Its annual revenue exceeds $60 billion, with an operating income of over $7 billion. As the company transitioned from a single market focus to becoming a digitalized global enterprise, rapidly growing data complexity became a major threat to the business. The company needed to pay close attention to an increasingly demanding customer base—able to source products and services from more suppliers around the globe than ever before. But this couldn’t come at the expense of industry-leading quality controls.
解决方案
The company turned to Zementis Predictive Analytics, designed from the start to handle streaming data flows from connected, Internet of Things systems and their innumerable sensors, actuators, and other components. Its core capabilities of automated decision making and platform-agnostic interoperability enabled growth while capitalizing on predictive maintenance to cut costs and increase manufacturing precision and quality. The platform-agnostic architecture, built into Zementis Predictive Analytics by design, was the key differentiator from the competition. With foundational predictive analytics utilized across the company’s large, multi-industry product portfolio, the next step was to go real time—and then further.

Case Study
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.

Aircraft Predictive Maintenance and Workflow Optimization
First, aircraft manufacturer have trouble monitoring the health of aircraft systems with health prognostics and deliver predictive maintenance insights. Second, aircraft manufacturer wants a solution that can provide an in-context advisory and align job assignments to match technician experience and expertise.
Case Study
Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
