挑战
Bega Cheese, one of the largest dairy producers in Australia, wanted to make its suppliers’ milk journeys faster and safer. The company saw that it was missing new opportunities in its supply chain and wanted to make it faster, more efficient, more cost effective – and, at the same time, to reduce food waste. Bega’s Head of Supply Chain, Adel Salman, knew that the IoT could be an excellent solution. He could see the potential of using real-time data in the company’s supply chain – both inbound and outbound. But he needed a partner – one with deep expertise in using IoT for agriculture and industry. One with excellent government connections and industry contacts. He formed a committee that went around various universities in Australia to look for the ideal partner. And he found Swinburne University’s Professor Dimitrios Georgakopoulos, Director of Swinburne’s Internet of Things Lab.
关于客户
Swinburne University of Technology is a world-ranked university, creating social and economic impact through science and innovation. It was founded in 1908 to serve those without access to further education in Melbourne's eastern suburbs. With three campuses in the Melbourne metropolitan area, as well as one in Sarawak, Malaysia, Swinburne has an international reputation for quality research. The university sought a technology partnership to support the educational and research programs of the university’s Manufacturing Futures Research Institute and Internet of Things (IoT) lab, as well as for expanding industry research impact in agricultural IoT and supply chain optimization. Swinburne also looked to partner with a software company with an agile and scalable IoT platform to support and integrate directly with research customers.
解决方案
Swinburne University partnered with Software AG to implement its Cumulocity IoT platform. The project, in collaboration with Bega, Swinburne, Software AG, Optus and 100 Australian milk suppliers, began late in 2019. Optus was chosen as partner to provide the narrowband data carriage for approximately 1000 sensor and related IoT devices that have been developed by Swinburne. They are currently being deployed in dairy farms and in trucks across Victoria. Then, what the project needed was an IoT platform for collecting this sensor data so it can be analyzed by the dynamic "pick-scheduling" and highly accurate milk-production forecasting applications developed by Swinburne. Together they provide the ability to start small and then scale to include Bega’s hundreds of farmers and suppliers. That is where Software AG came in; to scale up the 2.5 year project with the use of its Cumulocity IoT platform.

Case Study
The Kellogg Company
Kellogg keeps a close eye on its trade spend, analyzing large volumes of data and running complex simulations to predict which promotional activities will be the most effective. Kellogg needed to decrease the trade spend but its traditional relational database on premises could not keep up with the pace of demand.

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.

Energy Management System at Sugar Industry
The company wanted to use the information from the system to claim under the renewable energy certificate scheme. The benefit to the company under the renewable energy certificates is Rs 75 million a year. To enable the above, an end-to-end solution for load monitoring, consumption monitoring, online data monitoring, automatic meter data acquisition which can be exported to SAP and other applications is required.

Coca Cola Swaziland Conco Case Study
Coco Cola Swaziland, South Africa would like to find a solution that would enable the following results: - Reduce energy consumption by 20% in one year. - Formulate a series of strategic initiatives that would enlist the commitment of corporate management and create employee awareness while helping meet departmental targets and investing in tools that assist with energy management. - Formulate a series of tactical initiatives that would optimize energy usage on the shop floor. These would include charging forklifts and running cold rooms only during off-peak periods, running the dust extractors only during working hours and basing lights and air-conditioning on someone’s presence. - Increase visibility into the factory and other processes. - Enable limited, non-intrusive control functions for certain processes.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.

Coca-Cola Refreshments, U.S.
Coca-Cola Refreshments owns and manages Coca-Cola branded refrigerators in retail establishments. Legacy systems were used to locate equipment information by logging onto multiple servers which took up to 8 hours to update information on 30-40 units. The company had no overall visibility into equipment status or maintenance history.
