挑战
ProRail 的核心系统运营复杂且对荷兰极为重要，需要大量的 IT 监督。同时，ProRail 的业务不断产生新想法以提高流程效率，首先要求 IT 帮助解决这些问题，有时还会求助于第三方解决方案。这种情况很困难——增加了 ProRail 的积压工作并造成影子 IT 的扩散。
“IT 部门必须对业务流程产生更大的影响，”van der Linde 说，“我们需要使用我们的技术至上的视角来为企业希望解决的问题制定正确的解决方案。” ProRail 需要一种开发应用程序的新方法，使 Johan 的团队和整个 IT 部门能够构建在办公自动化领域快速上市、一次性成功且高度可靠的应用程序。

关于客户
ProRail是一个政府任务组织，负责维护和扩展国家铁路网络基础设施（不是地铁或有轨电车）、分配铁路容量和交通控制。 Prorail 是荷兰铁路基础设施所有者 NS Railinfratrust 的一部分。
解决方案
ProRail 考虑了许多选项来解决他们不断增长的积压和影子 IT 激增的问题。提出了现成的解决方案，解决特定的业务计划，但事实证明过于昂贵或不足。 “现成的解决方案通常意味着您最终会得到一堆您不需要或不需要使用的功能——这极大地浪费了金钱，”van der Linde 评论道。决定寻求一个应用程序平台——ProRail 开发应用程序的基础，这些应用程序经过微调来解决他们自己的特定需求。
Johan 的团队迅速开始工作，在过去五年中，在该平台上构建了 37 个应用程序，显着提高了运营效率。这些应用包括：

Case Study
System 800xA at Indian Cement Plants
Chettinad Cement recognized that further efficiencies could be achieved in its cement manufacturing process. It looked to investing in comprehensive operational and control technologies to manage and derive productivity and energy efficiency gains from the assets on Line 2, their second plant in India.

Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.
Case Study
IoT-based Fleet Intelligence Innovation
Speed to market is precious for DRVR, a rapidly growing start-up company. With a business model dependent on reliable mobile data, managers were spending their lives trying to negotiate data roaming deals with mobile network operators in different countries. And, even then, service quality was a constant concern.
Case Study
Digitize Railway with Deutsche Bahn
To reduce maintenance costs and delay-causing failures for Deutsche Bahn. They need manual measurements by a position measurement system based on custom-made MEMS sensor clusters, which allow autonomous and continuous monitoring with wireless data transmission and long battery. They were looking for data pre-processing solution in the sensor and machine learning algorithms in the cloud so as to detect critical wear.
Case Study
Cold Chain Transportation and Refrigerated Fleet Management System
1) Create a digital connected transportation solution to retrofit cold chain trailers with real-time tracking and controls. 2) Prevent multi-million dollar losses due to theft or spoilage. 3) Deliver a digital chain-of-custody solution for door to door load monitoring and security. 4) Provide a trusted multi-fleet solution in a single application with granular data and access controls.
Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.
