Creating Value Through Real Time Business Intelligence

Eric Bownes Global Defence Strategy

Global Defence – Military Advisor

Barrie Thomson



Smart Systems and the IoT are driven by combining …


Sensors & Actuators

We are giving our world a digital nervous system. Location data using GPS sensors. Eyes and ears using cameras and microphones, along with sensory organs that can measure everything from temperature to pressure changes.

1


Connectivity 2

These inputs are digitized and placed onto networks.


People & Processes 3

These networked inputs can then be combined into bi-directional systems that integrate data, people, processes and systems for better decision making.



So why does this matter to you …?

Positives

Opportunities:

• Do Business better

• More efficient Enterprise

More Revenues for:

• Managed Services

• Network Services

Negatives

Big Data challenge

Getting to the information that adds value to your business … it’s getting harder

Product costs coming down (Manufacturers view)


Revenue Expectations for IoT in 2014


Revenue Projections for IoT in 2020


And in the meantime …


Data, Data, everywhere ...


But also the ‘Data into Information’ challenge

NFI, operated by the Ministry of Justice, is a leading forensic institute conducting technical and scientific analyses to help solve crimes.

Business Challenges: Processing and keeping track of thousands of items of evidence. ~ 100,000 items to be tagged and tracked each year. Maintaining full control of chain of custody.

iMotion-based Solution: Employees with RFID badges move tagged items through the building by

trolley or manually on trays. Specifically placed readers and software track all movement within

facility. About 800,000 events a year stored for on-line access and viewing.

50 doors in building installed with RFID readers and complex devices managed by iMotion.

Alerts and audible alarms generated when exceptions detected or rules violated.

Business Benefits: Full coverage of item movement without manual labor. Enforcement of rules to prevent cross contamination or illegal movement. Compliance with government mandate.

GlobeRanger’s iMotion Platform Architecture


Daisy Brand: Warehouse Operations Optimization Realized Operational Improvements While Meeting Wal-Mart Mandates

Largest sour cream manufacturer in US

Used iMotion to RFID-enable finished goods handling from manufacture through cold storage and shipping

Achieved multifaceted operational improvements

Increased inventory turns through improved physical inventory management

Improved operational efficiency through optimization of shipment operations • Improved shipment accuracy via immediate notification of errors

• truck loading time reduced from 60 minutes to 20 minutes

2/3 reduction in RFID tag costs though integration of data from fixed and forklift-mounted RFID readers

Met Wal-Mart RFID tagging requirement years before mandate
