About The Customer
CAB Consortium was established in 1983, uniting four businesses belonging to the four Bortolato brothers. The company grew rapidly and expanded its core business in 1990 to better meet market needs, dealing in warehousing and storage. Five years later, it also ventured into distribution and logistics through the newly-created company, CABLOG. Today, CABLOG meets all of the needs for integrated logistics and is a reliable partner for transportation and outsourcing projects. The experience gained over the years has allowed the company to establish itself as a leader in the area of logistics and distribution, and is considered a benchmark for other businesses. CABLOG’s state-of-the-art machinery and highly qualified, experienced personnel enable the company to manage the entire distribution process, while ensuring experience and professionalism from the moment the goods arrive right through to their delivery.
The Challenge
CABLOG, a leading distributor offering warehousing, storage, outsourcing, and distribution logistics services, was seeking technological innovations to improve corporate performance and the quality of its customer service. The management expressed the need to be able to quickly make and verify in-depth analyses of summary performance and detailed indicators in various corporate areas. The delivery management in the logistics, goods transportation, and distribution sectors is complex and requires considerable space where the entire logistics-distribution process can be organized and assembled. CABLOG has large indoor and outdoor areas and 15 regional transit points located throughout Italy, so the location of the shipments can be constantly monitored.
The Solution
CABLOG's search for a technological partner ended with the selection of Levera, a QlikView OEM partner. Levera developed a suite of products called Nuvola, based on QlikView technology. Nuvola includes packaged functional modules which drastically reduced project-development times. The main analysis models were developed in just a few weeks, and less than two months were required for functional coverage, complete with an analysis of service levels, the profit and loss account by branch, a stock analysis in the various warehouses and an estimate and analysis of transportation. QlikView’s innovative technology, broad scalability, ease of use, speed in implementing and organizing the various reporting tools, incredible speed in analyzing data and affordable cost proved to be instrumental.

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.”
