挑战
客户需要一个可靠的合作伙伴来为这个关键业务系统提供基线支持和持续改进。
在接近客观性时，客户正在使用第三方供应商提供的定制应用程序。除了维护和支持解决方案之外，该项目的主要目标是使系统对非技术用户更加友好。
客户希望使这一过程自动化并减少解决方案的技术债务，这会减缓油漆生产。此外，现有桌面应用程序与新版微软操作系统存在兼容性问题。

关于客户
客户是一家全球涂料制造商，在几大洲拥有多个生产基地。所有这些工厂都由单一系统支持，用于混合和标记生产的油漆。
解决方案
客户使用由第三方供应商提供的用于混合和标记油漆的桌面应用程序与 Objectivity 联系。虽然该应用程序仍在使用中，但它有大量技术债务，需要改进，并且与即将推出的新 Microsoft 操作系统不兼容。
该应用程序托管在虚拟机上，无法访问其源代码，这给项目带来了重大挑战。
这种扩展合作基于 DevOps 模型，其中一个共享团队负责解决方案的支持和维护，以及进行增强和开发新功能。客观性提供积极的支持，利用对系统和客户业务的丰富知识提出改进建议。

Case Study
Metal Fabrication
As each mast section needs a total of 222 reliable welds, manufacturing them is an extremely labor intensive process.Until recently, STROS had to use highly skilled welders to make these sections. Although it has been using robots for 25 years, these machines could not manage the complex arc welds in narrow spaces needed for these particular components. Consequently, in order to produce a satisfactory number of mast sections it had to employ three welders per shift at three separate workstations to make these pieces. Apart from the obvious outlay this required in terms of manpower and space, STROS found it increasingly difficult to recruit the highly qualified welders needed for this work. That's why in 2007 the company decided to hold a tender for the complete robotization of its manufacturing process for mast sections. Of the four firms who participated, only the ABB group could fulfill all its requirements.

Digital Transformation in Insurance: A Case Study of Menora Mivtachim
Menora Mivtachim, one of Israel's largest pension fund and insurance carriers, was facing a significant challenge due to demographic trends in Israel. The growing rate of retirement planning and services was putting unprecedented pressure on the already strained insurance sector. The pension claims process was bottlenecked with complexities, bureaucracy, and errors. Menora Mivtachim's existing pension process was heavily manual and spreadsheet-based, requiring a team of 10 full-time employees to manage. The process involved gathering applicant information, conducting personal surveys, compiling bank information, and finalizing agreements. To leverage the growing opportunity in the retirement sector and position themselves as innovative insurtech leaders, Menora Mivtachim needed to digitalize their process, streamline the claims experience, and reduce quote times through automated processes.

Automation in Mining: Unleashing Productivity and Efficiency with 5G
The mining industry, a significant contributor to global economic activity with revenues exceeding USD 500 billion, is facing a challenge of improving efficiency and profitability. The industry is gradually shifting its focus towards automation as the next area of opportunity. Boliden, one of the world's most successful mining companies, operates the Aitik mine, the largest open pit in Europe. The Aitik mine is expanding, and with the increase in production from 36 million metric tons of ore to 45 million metric tons, the amount of rock removed will also increase significantly. However, increasing the number of machines required for rock removal in a busy mine is not a straightforward task. Additionally, every blast creates toxic gases that need to dissipate before humans can enter the area and begin excavation. The challenge lies in improving efficiency, managing the increased production, and ensuring safety in the harsh mining environment.

ANZ Bank's Digital Transformation with Nintex Advanced Workflow
ANZ Bank, one of the top 50 banks in the world and the fastest-growing bank in Indonesia, was facing a challenge with its rapidly increasing transaction volume. The bank's existing business processes and workflow were becoming overwhelmed. Like most banks in Indonesia, ANZ was manually handling document submission and verification. Customers filled out paper loan applications and supporting documents, then delivered them to bank branches by mail or courier. Branch officers traveled to the bank’s headquarters or used postal mail, email, and phone calls to submit loan documents for verification. Lost or inaccurate documents created more emails and phone calls. Additionally, ANZ had to adhere to strict verification and financial regulations, including the Foreign Accounts Compliance Act. This act requires that all banks outside the United States provide key information about U.S. clients, including citizenship validation, to the Internal Revenue Service–a complex yet crucial process.
