About The Customer
Streck Transport is a transport, logistics, and customs specialist based in Lörrach, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. The company has been in operation for over 70 years and employs about 1,160 people. Streck Transport operates 17 sites across Germany and Switzerland, managing an 88,000m3 warehouse. The company is known for its expertise in providing efficient and reliable transport and logistics services, including customs management.
The Challenge
Streck Transport faced several challenges in their transport management system. They needed to achieve higher efficiency in technical and software support by moving from an internally operated solution to a hosted version. Additionally, they required a solution to optimize the increasing print volume of customs documents. As a global transport services provider, Streck Transport sought a professional, reliable customs software solution with comprehensive IT capabilities for their daily core business.
The Solution
BluJay Solutions provided a comprehensive system to address Streck Transport’s needs. The IT infrastructure was outsourced to BluJay, saving time and resources while eliminating administrative tasks. Manual processing of customs documents was no longer necessary, thanks to a proprietary tool that automatically recognizes and forwards documents to on-site printers. The IT infrastructure was transferred to Kewill data centers in four phases, ensuring ongoing operations were not disrupted. The solution included assigning data cables, implementing hardware and software at BluJay data centers, and gradually migrating data to the new system. The final step was commissioning the solution, which provided Streck Transport with a complete externally hosted solution with a full range of functions.

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.”
