挑战
The Louisiana Department of Health was faced with the challenge of creating a data strategy that identifies and links all data elements associated with each citizen/recipient, healthcare provider, and location. The department wanted to improve data integrity, analysis, and reporting by creating standard processes for data storage, movement, cleansing, enrichment, and access. The department depends on an array of applications – legacy, custom, off-the-shelf, on-premises, and remotely hosted. Each application operates as a standalone system with its own set of business rules and data. Data sharing and reporting across systems is complex and difficult. System fragmentation drives up the cost of conducting business by reducing productivity and increasing technical maintenance efforts and activities.
关于客户
The Louisiana Department of Health is a state agency that protects and promotes health and ensures access to medical, preventive, and rehabilitative services for all citizens of the State of Louisiana. The department is responsible for delivering critical services in a cohesive way, which involves uniting a diverse base of people, processes, systems, and agencies to maintain consistent citizen records, and to ensure that all information systems share accurate data. The department depends on an array of applications – legacy, custom, off-the-shelf, on-premises, and remotely hosted. Each application operates as a standalone system with its own set of business rules and data.
解决方案
The Louisiana Department of Health leveraged Information Builders’ Omni-Gen MDM technology to create an enterprise architecture that allows for the development of a universal repository of mastered data that all systems across all state agencies can share. The department selected Omni-Gen after an exacting request for proposal (RFP) process. They wanted an operational/transactional MDM system to support the following domains and entities: People/Clients/Recipients (more than three million records), Health Providers/Facilities/Partners/Vendors (more than 100,000 records), and Location/Facilities/Addresses. The MDM system had to be sufficiently scalable to support a dozen information systems, and comprehensive enough to address data modeling and metadata, hierarchy management, data quality management, data maintenance; and data stewardship. Furthermore, the department wanted to simplify data loading, integration and synchronization, business services and workflow; system architecture, security, and administration.

Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.

Smart Street Light Network (Copenhagen)
Key stakeholders are taking a comprehensive approach to rethinking smart city innovation. City leaders have collaborated through partnerships involving government, research institutions and solution providers. The Copenhagen Solutions Lab is one of the leading organizations at the forefront of this movement. By bringing together manufacturers with municipal buyers, the Copenhagen Solutions Lab has catalyzed the development and deployment of next-generation smart city innovations. Copenhagen is leveraging this unique approach to accelerate the implementation of smart city solutions. One of the primary focus areas is LED street lighting.

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.

China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.
