This solution, based on IBM\u2019s cloud-based Internet of Things technologies and Sigfox\u2019 international \u201c0G\u201d network allows Groupe PSA to optimize container rotation between the various PSA\u2019supplier sites and factories. With \u201cTrack&amp;Trace\u201d and thanks to IBM Watson IoT\u2019 solution, Groupe PSA tracks its sensor-equipped containers in real time through Sigfox\u2019 network. The solution, easy to deploy, \u00a0offers simple and efficient services to reduce production line breakdowns and eliminate packaging waste in order to prevent incidents. It is currently being deployed at several sites of the group. \u201cWe are constantly looking for technological solutions to meet with the needs of our factories and to be as efficient as possible. This \u201cTrack&amp;Trace\u201d system allows us to know, individually and in detail, where our containers are located. This technological advance must allow to optimize our rotation loops and to prevent incidents. It is a real disruption and a new step in the digitalization of the Supply Chain,\u201d says\u00a0<strong>Yann Vincent, EVP Manufacturing &amp; Supply Chain Groupe PSA<\/strong>. At the end of supplier consultation phase leading to the choice of IBM, the business solution was co-created and developed during a design thinking session at IBM Studio with Groupe PSA\u2019s logistic experts. It was then industrialized within IBM France\u2019s ScaleZone, a structure federating open ecosystems to develop multi-stakeholder projects. This co-construction approach has been possible thanks to the close collaboration between IBM, Groupe PSA, and Sigfox, which aimed at bringing this solution to an industrial scale. \u201cI am proud that IBM is Groupe PSA\u2019s trusted partner for its efficient logistics. With this innovative project, we are demonstrating the value of working in a conjoined ecosystem and in particular with a partner such as Sigfox, to develop new digital usages in a co-innovating process with Groupe PSA\u201d, said\u00a0<strong>Nicolas Sekkaki, President IBM France<\/strong>. Based on the latest technological innovation on the Internet of Things field, the solution was developed by IBM services to be integrated into the industrial environment, from the sensor\u2019s adaptation (size, fixing, constraints\u2026) to the deployment of an \u201cAs A Service\u201d container solution. Already integrating IBM\u2019s analytical services, it will be able to develop and evolve in line with business needs and new logistic uses, through Artificial Intelligence and technology sharing within Blockchain ecosystems. \u201cAsset management and tracking is constantly growing for the companies. This is the most important demand on the IoT market. We are delighted to combine Watson IoT\u2019s power with our seamless international network to enable Groupe PSA to improve its Supply Chain,\u201d\u00a0said\u00a0<strong>Ludovic Le Moan, CEO and co-founder of Sigfox<\/strong>. IBM, Sigfox and Groupe PSA plan to offer this platform to other European manufacturers from 2019. <strong>About Watson IoT<\/strong> IBM is an established leader in the Internet of Things with more than 6,000 client engagements in 170 countries, a growing ecosystem of over 1,400 partners and more 750 IoT patents which together help to draw actionable insight from billions of connected devices, sensors and systems around the world. Building on the company&#8217;s USD 3 billion commitment to bring Watson cognitive computing to IoT, in December 2015 IBM announced a USD 200 million global headquarters for its new Watson IoT unit in Munich Germany, bringing together 1,000 IBM developers, consultants, researchers and designers to drive deeper engagement with clients and partners.
