About The Customer
Service New South Wales (NSW) is an award-winning government initiative delivering services to citizens, including driver licences, birth certificates, Seniors Cards and Fair Trading licences through one digital service, one phone number and a network of one-stop shops. The initiative was conceived as a 'one-stop-shop' for citizens needing to interact with state government departments. By consolidating and digitizing service delivery, the New South Wales government aimed to reduce service delivery spend while improving access for citizens. Since the agency's establishment in 2013, citizen response has been positive.
The Challenge
Service NSW, a government initiative in New South Wales, Australia, was conceived as a 'one-stop-shop' for citizens needing to interact with state government departments. However, executing on the program's broad vision provided a thorny challenge for the organisation's IT team. Delivering new digital services required that manual back-end processes be automated; doing so required access to data spanning over 40 government departments and agencies. The sensitive nature of the data involved made security an imperative, complicating things further. Recognizing the need for a connectivity platform that could not only handle complex data integration, but also orchestrate, expose, and govern data access through APIs, Service NSW adopted MuleSoft's Anypoint Platform to anchor the program.
The Solution
Service NSW adopted MuleSoft's Anypoint Platform to anchor the program. Powering Service NSW required that data be exposed from legacy systems across over 40 government departments and agencies in a manner that didn't risk compromising any of these systems. In response to these challenges, Service NSW decided to adopt Salesforce as the front end for the agency, and to leverage APIs to expose data from legacy systems to Salesforce in a scalable manner. Afterward, they looked to identify a partner to help them realize this vision. Service NSW's challenges extended beyond connecting internal and external systems. Since they had no control of the systems or processes used outside their agency, they needed an architecture that would be flexible to external change. API-led connectivity provided them with a way to achieve this flexibility.

Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.

Case Study
Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.

China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.

Barcelona Case Study
Barcelona’s heavy traffic and its associated high levels of pollution were the primary factors that motivated some companies and universities to work on strategies for improving traffic in the city centre. Bitcarrier is one of the technologies involved in the In4Mo Project, whose main objective is to develop the applications that form the core of smart mobility, one of the fundamental pillars of the smart city concept.
