2013 World Machinery

Cloud computing has become indispensable. However, what seems simple is not always so for large organizations with an enterprise architecture. These organizations avoid risks and often engage major international companies such as Sogeti to manage and control their architecture. Integrating cloud solutions for large organizations with an enterprise architecture requires expertise at a very high level, as standard cloud solutions often cannot meet the specified requirements.

Case: Karlstad

The task involved delivering a Track & Trace system for 70 vehicles, including utility vehicles, trucks, lawnmowers, salt/sand spreaders, drain cleaners, and street sweepers, along with 300 passenger vehicles. It was highly desirable for the system to utilize Karlstad Kommun’s own server locations, servers, databases, map material, and the central access control system.

The system components needed to be implemented based on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), with a Service Level Agreement (SLA) established for each component. The personnel at Karlstad Kommun were to be trained, and the continuity of the hardware, software, and services provided needed to be ensured.

To address this case, Inter-Data reached out to Sogeti. Specifically for companies with an enterprise architecture, Inter-Data initiated the development of a new platform built on components with Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) as its foundation. To ensure continuity, Inter-Data became a part of Trica EEIG (European Economic Interest Group).

2013 API Application Programming Interface

Frequently, the question arises whether Inter-Data can be integrated with other software packages. To provide a comprehensive answer to this question, the Inter-Data system has had an API (Application Programming Interface) since 2010. Utilizing this API allows any desired program to communicate seamlessly with the Inter-Data system.

Case: Productivity Management

In 2011, the software company 2G from Uddel, specialized in web-based custom solutions, presented the following case:

A mutual client aimed to integrate the hours and mileage accountability of Inter-Data to enhance project control and optimize project administration. Additionally, consultants wanted rapid insight into the correlation between relationships, projects, and objects during client interactions.

By leveraging the Inter-Data API, 2G could automatically transfer the required information to the 2G project administration package. This facilitated the company in straightforwardly registering costs and hours per project. The application continues to provide valuable information for project management and relationship management, easily accessible from any desired location. Due to the entire package being a cloud solution, the establishment of a branch for the company was swiftly realized.

2008 Secret Packages

In 2006, IInter-Data initiated the development and research of “Secret Products.” The demand for small systems without power supply, featuring a long standby time and high-quality satellite reception, was on the rise.

Case: Secret packages that can be easily shipped with regular package shipments in the existing distribution structure

Execution: In the period 2007-2008, this case was carried out in collaboration with UPS EMEA Security Technology Group in Venlo. Through the application of power management technology, fine-tuning of hardware components, and special filtering techniques in the software, Inter-Data achieved results that exceeded expectations. Due to confidentiality obligations, more detailed information about this project cannot be disclosed.

2006 Projectmanagement

In 2006, Inter-Data  introduced a new solution: the Inter-Dataterminal, a programmable unit with a display and keyboard.

Case: Automatically recording completed projects: location, time, project number, items consumed, explanation and executor, intended for all service employees

The goal was to automatically capture executed projects, including location, time, project number, consumed items, notes, and the executor, for all service personnel. The system needed to be integrated with the existing trip registration system. The statuses and locations of all service vehicles had to be centrally displayed on a large screen for planning purposes. The system had to work both centrally and decentrally, independent of the workplace. Overviews needed to be easily imported into the existing project management administration. Any adjustments to the menu structure of the Inter-Dataterminal had to be made without the vehicle being taken to a service workshop or a service technician being on-site.

Implemented Solution:
By using the Inter-Dataterminal and combining it with the trip registration system, much information could be automatically generated. For the remaining details like project number, consumed items, notes, and executor, a customer-specific menu structure was created and installed on the data terminal. Adjustments to the menu structure of the Inter-Dataterminal could be performed through Over the Air (OTA) integration with the trip registration system, eliminating the need for a technician to be on-site for these changes. To facilitate the proper import of the collected data into the existing project management administration of the housing association, a customer-specific CSV file was compiled.

2004 Traffic Information System

In 2004, Inter-Data commenced operations as an OEM supplier for the Quickgroup, consisting of Silca Traffic Systems Europe (manufacturer of mobile traffic information systems), Allmand Europe (specialist in mobile lighting equipment), and Quickstra (a specialized service organization for all aspects of portable forklifts).

Case: Private label

The customer’s request was whether Inter-Data could develop a track & trace system for them under a private label.

They wanted the ability to determine the location of work equipment, monitor battery voltage, record operating hours, display charging and discharging graphs of the batteries, remotely start and stop generators, report malfunctions, report sabotage, use the GSM GPRS modem as an M2M data modem, and communicate via the GSM network with the internal computers of the message signs.

Execution:
By combining expertise and experience in track & trace, M2M solutions, and GSM data communication, Quicktrace was developed in a short period. This new development was presented by Silca to its customers, such as Rijkswaterstaat, Provinces, Waterschappen, and infrastructure companies, during Intertraffic, the trade fair for the traffic, transport, and infrastructure industry, in 2005. This development provided valuable insights into the application of solar panels, wind generators, and battery management. Significant cost savings were achieved through online monitoring and control. Many trips to work equipment for service, maintenance, and text adjustments became unnecessary with Quicktrace. The lifespan of the battery was significantly increased, and the reliability and continuity of Silca’s traffic information systems could be ensured with Quicktrace.

2003 PDA with Navigation

In the early 2000s, with the introduction of the Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) to the market, Inter-Data, then operating under the name HEBRE Projecten, embarked on developing its own software integrated with existing software components. The initial application crafted by Inter-Data was named “Knop”, enabling the PDA to be used as a navigation system in vehicles.

Case: Reverse Camera on PDA Screen

The entire fleet, comprising 25 trucks with trailers, was equipped with a camera system linked to the PDA, integrated with navigation and an address book.

Beyond navigation and the address book, Inter-Data developed a cradle for this application, installed in the vehicle, where the PDA could be placed, directly connecting to Orlaco’s analog cameras.

This innovative solution positioned the toy retail giant Bart Smit well ahead of its time, combining navigation and a camera system and reducing costs by more than 50%.
