挑战
The Louisiana Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) was facing challenges in increasing the efficiency of fraud detection, foster care, disaster recovery, and other reporting initiatives within the state’s social services department. The department was struggling with disparate IT systems that were developed with different standards and data structures, making the administration of programs and provision of benefits difficult, slow, and resource-intensive. Additionally, the department was grappling with fraud in its Supplemental Nutrition Assistance program (SNAP) and Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP), which was costing the state significant amounts of money. The department also needed a more efficient way to place children in foster homes that met their needs and were close to their schools and families.
关于客户
The Louisiana Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) is a state agency that includes more than 4,500 staff members, supporting approximately one million constituents. The department is responsible for a variety of social services initiatives, including the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance program (SNAP), the Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP), and foster care services. The department also plays a crucial role in disaster recovery planning and implementation, ensuring that those who rely on SNAP receive emergency services and supplies during power outages. The department has been recognized for its innovative use of technology in these areas, with other states expressing interest in mimicking its systems.
解决方案
The department partnered with Information Builders to create a web-based analytical tool that could access transactional data and display results in a variety of formats, including map-based displays. They also devised master data records to minimize the time and effort required to provide benefits. The solution included WebFOCUS, iWay DataMigrator, Service Manager, Data Quality Center, ReportCaster, and Professional Services. The department also launched the Common Access Front End (CAFÉ) program, which created a master record for each case and service provider, enforcing consistency and minimizing time and effort. The department also used WebFOCUS and GIS technology from Esri to help reduce illegal activity in its SNAP and CCAP programs. The system allowed managers, supervisors, and fraud investigators to analyze trends among millions of transactions and display the information on digital maps.

Case Study
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.

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.

Barcelona Case Study
Barcelona’s heavy traffic and its associated high levels of pollution were the primary factors that motivated some companies and universities to work on strategies for improving traffic in the city centre. Bitcarrier is one of the technologies involved in the In4Mo Project, whose main objective is to develop the applications that form the core of smart mobility, one of the fundamental pillars of the smart city concept.
