挑战
TransNet was utilizing an 11-year-old version of their previous software, which had been operating without any maintenance for the majority of that time frame. As upgrades were happening, functionality and reliability steadily declined. Additionally, all of TransNet’s processes were manual due to the lack of automation capabilities in their previous software.
关于客户
Suburban Transit Network, Inc. (TransNet) creates access to community resources and employment by consistently providing safe, cost-effective, reliable transportation for residents and businesses of Montgomery County and surrounding areas. Beginning as a small pilot program, and developing into a large and diverse regional transportation resource, TransNet has come a long way since its inception in 1980. TransNet is a transit option designed to provide convenient, low-cost transportation. Initially, it focused on meeting the needs of senior citizens and disabled persons, doing so through exclusive relationships with existing Montgomery County taxicab companies. Today the organization is complex and comprehensive; the direct result of decisions made in the late 1980s. TransNet serves groups of seniors and disabled persons, and contracts with school districts, colleges, and private companies to offer specialized transit services and commuter shuttles.
解决方案
Implementation of Ecolane DRT Software for reporting, data analysis, and supply and logistics. The agency needed a software solution that would increase efficiency and improve overall operations. Ecolane DRT scheduling and dispatching software (hosted by Ecolane) was implemented along with Ecolane Touch Screen MDT software for Android Tablets. Subcontractor Portals were created for the review of only specific provider details. An advanced Ecolane Reporting System along with an Ad-hoc reporting tool was also implemented. Extensive PennDOT custom reports were developed to meet specific needs. Ecolane was heavily involved in the implementation process and assisted TransNet with the change management needed to ensure a successful transition. TransNet had a number of procedural issues arise during the initial Ecolane implementation, including resistance from consumers, sub-contractors, and business partners. Ecolane’s team was available onsite throughout the implementation to address these issues.

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.

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.

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.

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.
