About The Customer
The customers are large companies based in Sri Lanka. They operate corporate shuttle buses for their employees. However, they were facing challenges in managing their transport services. The buses were often late, and drivers violated traffic rules. Additionally, passengers did not arrive on time at the bus stops, causing delays. These issues were affecting the quality of their transport services and they were in need of a solution to manage their transport services more effectively.
The Challenge
Several large companies in Sri Lanka were facing difficulties with their corporate shuttle buses. The buses were often late, drivers violated traffic rules, and passengers did not arrive on time at the bus stops, causing drivers to wait for them. These issues negatively impacted the quality of transport services. The companies needed a solution to manage their transport services and a mobile application for passengers.
The Solution
KLOUDIP, a partner from Sri Lanka, offered a comprehensive solution that included NimBus, QR codes, and the Wialon Eco Driving module. The KLOUDIP specialists trained the clients to configure routes in NimBus, assign vehicles and drivers to them, create stops, and monitor the shuttle buses’ location online. They also developed a mobile application for passengers. QR codes containing the route, stops, schedule, ETA details, and the real-time location of the vehicle were sent to the employees by e-mail or posted at the pickup points. The Wialon Eco Driving module was configured to monitor the driving behavior of each driver. If the driver had many violations, he was sent for additional training.

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
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.

3M Gains Real-Time Insight with Cloud Solution
The company has a long track record of innovative technology solutions. For example, 3M helps its customers optimize parking operations by automating fee collection and other processes. To improve support for this rapidly expanding segment, 3M needed to automate its own data collection and reporting. The company had recently purchased the assets of parking, tolling, and automatic license plate reader businesses, and required better insight into these acquisitions. Chad Reed, Global Business Manager for 3M Parking Systems, says, “With thousands of installations across the world, we couldn’t keep track of our software and hardware deployments, which made it difficult to understand our market penetration.” 3M wanted a tracking application that sales staff could use to get real-time information about the type and location of 3M products in parking lots and garages. So that it could be used on-site with potential customers, the solution would have to provide access to data anytime, anywhere, and from an array of mobile devices. Jason Fox, Mobile Application Architect at 3M, upped the ante by volunteering to deliver the new app in one weekend. For Fox and his team, these requirements meant turning to the cloud instead of an on-premises datacenter. “My first thought was to go directly to the cloud because we needed to provide access not only to our salespeople, but to resellers who didn’t have access to our internal network,” says Fox. “The cloud just seemed like a logical choice.”
