关于客户
Haltian is a leading Internet of Things (IoT) and product development company. Haltian’s IoT services include the Empathic Building digital twin for smart offices. The company’s Thingsee IoT devices and platform facilitate large-scale deployments and are used for applications such as occupancy detection, indoor air quality monitoring, and predictive maintenance. Haltian also provides manufacturers with world-class new product development services—from initial concept and prototype design to launch and mass production. Haltian IoT customers include many global operators, such as Lindström and W.L. Gore. Haltian is also behind many global signature products, such as the Oura health ring.
挑战
Due to the complexity of their IoT devices, Haltian must ensure seamless interoperability between the devices’ sensors, software, and electrical components. Previously, Haltian relied on multiple disconnected systems to store and manage their product data. Bills of materials (BOMs) were maintained in Excel spreadsheets, making it difficult for teams to keep track of the latest product designs and ensure data integrity. As the company continued to expand globally and extend their product portfolio, it became nearly impossible to effectively manage product information using this manual, siloed approach. In addition, Haltian’s transition to a remote work model because of the COVID-19 pandemic created communication gaps and other inefficiencies as teams scattered to different locations. Ultimately, the company needed a single, centralized solution that would bring more structure to their product data and keep their dispersed teams on the same page.
解决方案
Arena provides Haltian a structured approach to manage the entire product record. Liimatta set out to find a product lifecycle management (PLM) solution that could scale with the company and meet Haltian’s evolving product development needs. By combining components, files, drawings, and other elements of the BOM into a centralized cloud-based system, Haltian always has access to the most current and accurate product information. Arena PLM enables Haltian’s teams to easily create, share, and approve product designs and gain greater visibility into any changes that impact production with revision controls and automated engineering change processes applied to parts, BOMs, and documents. Since deploying Arena PLM, Haltian’s dispersed teams can access the system anytime and anywhere and provide real-time input around drawings, specifications, assemblies, and other product information. This keeps teams aligned and helps them address interoperability of the total design to accelerate new product development. With Haltian’s multiple product configurations, a robust part numbering system is essential to ensure full traceability and control of the various designs. Haltian assigns Arena item numbers and other attributes to components so that they are properly coded and tracked in their BOMs. Because engineering teams and subcontractors are accessing the same BOMs and working off of the same part numbers and revisions, it eliminates confusion and errors during the production phase. For added clarity, they can easily compare redlines of the BOMs to see the history of changes between revisions. Where Used capabilities also provide visibility into where a particular component is used across all product assemblies.

Case Study
Premium Appliance Producer Innovates with Internet of Everything
Sub-Zero faced the largest product launch in the company’s history:It wanted to launch 60 new products as scheduled while simultaneously opening a new “greenfield” production facility, yet still adhering to stringent quality requirements and manage issues from new supply-chain partners. A the same time, it wanted to increase staff productivity time and collaboration while reducing travel and costs.

Aerospace & Defense Case Study Airbus
For the development of its new wide-body aircraft, Airbus needed to ensure quality and consistency across all internal and external stakeholders. Airbus had many challenges including a very aggressive development schedule and the need to ramp up production quickly to satisfy their delivery commitments. The lack of communication extended design time and introduced errors that drove up costs.

Porsche Announces Augmented Reality at Scale, Powered by Atheer
The usual practice for car repairs at a Porsche car dealership is to have a factory representative or regional engineer visit to help diagnose the problem, and sometimes a faulty assembly is shipped back to company HQ for damage analysis. All that costs time and money for customers and dealers alike.

Covisint Improves Mitsubishi's Collaboration With Its Supply Chain
Mitsubishi sought to improve supplier relationships on a global basis and to offer an easy-to-use solution to interact with them. In August 2004, Mitsubishi selected Covisint’s platform to help improve sharing of information and collaborative business processes with its global suppliers. Covisint enabled Mitsubishi to provide its suppliers with immediate access to information and applications to obtain more collaborative working relationships

Beer Distributor Improves Security, Shipping Capacity, and Service
Enjoy a beer on the upper Texas Gulf Coast, and you can probably thank Del Papa Distributing Company. Founded more than a century ago, the company today distributes 10 million cases of beer annually, from 30 suppliers. More than 375 employees work at headquarters in Texas City and two other distribution centers. The family-owned company has a simple aim: to be a great beer distribution company. So when Del Papa set out to build a new 27-acre headquarters, company leaders thought about how technology could contribute to its greatness. “We wanted the new distribution center to have a single, secure network we could use for physical security, communications, collaboration, and even monitoring the temperature of our inventory,” says Steve Holtsclaw, Manager of Information Systems for Del Papa. The old building, in contrast, had separate networks for voice, data, video, and physical security. Separate networks were expensive and got in the way of business. For example, personnel could only monitor video surveillance cameras from certain workstations. And Wi-Fi performance in the warehouse area wasn’t reliable enough for the voice-activated order-picking system.

Aruba Cuts the Core with Microsoft Lync
Aruba's IT team purchased a telephony system which is going end-of-life and this would become a bottleneck to growth. While they began investigating modern PBX systems, they were also considering put their own Wi-Fi infrastructure to work by adopting a Unified Communications and Collaboration solution.
