关于客户
The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) is a not-for-profit center for engineering, research, and development. It is dedicated to solving complex research, engineering, and analytical problems that present critical challenges to the United States. Located north of Washington, D.C., APL is a division of one of the world’s premier research universities, The Johns Hopkins University (JHU). The Laboratory was organized to develop a critical World War II technology in 1942. Sponsors include most of the United States’ pivotal government agencies. The Lab’s expertise includes highly qualified and technically diverse teams with hands-on operational knowledge of the military and security environments.
挑战
The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) was facing challenges with its IT remote support solutions. The existing solutions were not meeting the organization's rigorous security standards and were unreliable, leading to session-connect failures 25% of the time. This was causing frustration among users and resulting in unnecessary onsite visits. The annual downstream costs due to these failures were estimated to be $100,000, equivalent to the cost of two full-time employees. The ITSD team at the lab decided to improve their IT services in terms of security, reliability, and cost.
解决方案
The ITSD team at APL performed an analysis on several remote support solutions, testing them for reliability, security, and functionality. They chose Bomgar because it met their rigorous security standards, retained all support session data onsite, required session permission from the user, and enabled the Lab to maintain a complete audit trail through session recording. Bomgar also provided a remote support solution for the various platforms required. The analysis revealed that Bomgar prevented tickets from passing to the onsite repair team, connected 20 to 30% faster compared to competitors, and successfully connected 99% of the time.

Data Capture for Afghanistan Forces
Electronic equipments on the field of Afghanistan provided information on the status of the vehicle and to identify potential threats surrounding it to the British Force. The monitoring and interpretation of this data requires robust and sophisticated digitization for data capture and communication.

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

Major Aerospace Company Automates Asset Management
The O&M division of an aerospace and global security company was using spreadsheets to manually track more than 3,000 assets assigned to students and staff. Maintaining audit trails for this high volume of equipment became increasingly time-consuming and challenging. The chore involved knowing precisely what equipment was on hand, what had been issued, its location and the name of the custodial owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried out by individuals with spreadsheets. Manually documenting the full lifecycle of each asset added to the burden. This included tracking maintenance requirements and records, incidents and damages, repairs, calibrations, depreciation, and end-of-life data.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.

Edinburgh Napier University streamlines long-distance learning with Cisco WebEX
• Geographically dispersed campus made in-person meetings costly and inconvenient.• Distance-learning programs in Malaysia, India, and China required dependable, user-friendly online tools to maximize interaction in collaborative workspaces.• Virtual learning environment required a separate sign-in process, resulting in a significant administrative burden for IT staff and limited adoption of collaboration technology.
