关于客户
Deutsche Bahn (DB) Netz AG is a 100 percent subsidiary of Deutsche Bahn AG, responsible for maintaining the infrastructure for rail operations. The company ensures that passenger and freight traffic on Europe’s largest railway network can be punctual and reliable. In 2010, the company, with more than 35,000 employees, posted revenues of €4.478 million. The railway network that DB Netz AG is responsible for stretches across 61,260 km. Around 70,000 switches and crossings need to be set correctly for its 380 customers from Germany and all over Europe. Additionally, DB Netz AG needs to develop schedules and carry out construction projects.
挑战
DB Netz AG, a subsidiary of Deutsche Bahn AG, is responsible for maintaining the infrastructure for rail operations. The company's IT infrastructure was complex and many applications were developed independently from one another, leading to data being managed in different databases and functionalities for realizing requirements being developed redundantly. This resulted in higher costs and longer project durations. The company sought to develop an innovative IT toolbox system as part of a service-oriented architecture that would structure and harmonize the development process for all IT applications within the company. The goal was to automate processes from technical requirements through realization and documentation.
解决方案
DB Netz AG implemented a Business Process Management (BPM) platform with Software AG. With the help of the Software AG Model-to-Execute methodology, DB Netz AG was able to shorten the duration of its projects by 40 percent and reduce development costs by 25 percent. The BPM platform was based on ARIS and webMethods to implement the Model-to-Execute methodology. With this methodology, ARIS models can be directly converted in webMethods at the execution level. CentraSite was integrated as a central service repository to re-use the created components and enable faster mapping of new business processes.

Case Study
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
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.
Case Study
Digitize Railway with Deutsche Bahn
To reduce maintenance costs and delay-causing failures for Deutsche Bahn. They need manual measurements by a position measurement system based on custom-made MEMS sensor clusters, which allow autonomous and continuous monitoring with wireless data transmission and long battery. They were looking for data pre-processing solution in the sensor and machine learning algorithms in the cloud so as to detect critical wear.
Case Study
Cold Chain Transportation and Refrigerated Fleet Management System
1) Create a digital connected transportation solution to retrofit cold chain trailers with real-time tracking and controls. 2) Prevent multi-million dollar losses due to theft or spoilage. 3) Deliver a digital chain-of-custody solution for door to door load monitoring and security. 4) Provide a trusted multi-fleet solution in a single application with granular data and access controls.
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.
Case Study
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.”
