挑战
联想是一家跨国科技公司，在平衡巴西零售商的产品供需方面面临挑战。该公司的目标是预测销售量，即零售商向客户销售的产品单位数量，但受到资源的限制。该团队已开始开发 R 代码来预测销售量，目标是每周为其十大零售客户更新。然而，由于只有 2 个人每周为一位客户编写 1,500 行 R 代码，因此每周为十位客户进行预测的目标是不可能的。该团队需要投资更多数据科学家，或者找到一种可以自动执行所有建模和预测步骤的工具。
关于客户
联想是全球最大的科技公司之一，每年在全球销售的电脑、笔记本电脑和配件价值超过 450 亿美元。这家中国跨国公司将巴西视为其主要新兴市场之一，为在客户和零售商中确立南美市场领导者地位提供了绝佳机会。联想巴西技术有限公司负责该地区的销售和制造业务。该公司早就知道，准确预测销售量将改善业务的许多方面，从发现供应链中的问题到做出更好的营销投资。
解决方案
联想巴西采用了自动化机器学习平台 DataRobot，以加速并提高其销售量预测的准确性。该团队确定了 59 个可能影响零售商销售量的变量，并使用 DataRobot 自动化了模型构建过程。DataRobot 使用不同的算法快速创建了数十个模型，将它们排列在排行榜上，并快速总结它们的准确性和预测性。该工具还使团队能够轻松解释哪些变量最具预测性，并透明地将这些模型的结果传达给业务利益相关者。使用 DataRobot 显著提高了速度和效率，并显著提高了预测的准确性。

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.

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).
