OT-IT Integration for a Shipping Fleet Operator
Case Study
OT-IT Integration for a Shipping Fleet Operator
Sensor data-based insights for fleet monitoring (GPS location), fuel theft detection (level) using IBM Watson analytics stack. 20% improved operational efficiency in cargo handling – reduced waiting-loading-unloading-transit time
Executive Summary
eInfochips built a solution that enabled home ports to track routes taken by the vessels throughout the course of the journey –obtaining near real-time, remote vessel tracking, fuel monitoring, and operational control
Client
A leading conglomerate in the South Asian region with a fleet of 300 vessels that provides integrated cargo transportation & logistics services.
Challenge
There were significant inefficiencies in the shipping operations
- Manual route tracking of each vessel and asset monitoring for material handling equipment led to lower operational efficiency
- Fuel theft and adulteration led to financial losses and low fuel efficiencies
This led to inefficiency in operations, transportation, and asset performance.
