连接性为斯堪尼亚创造可持续性业绩
去年12月,斯卡尼亚供应第100,000辆备有激 活连接的卡车,也就是说,车主和斯堪尼亚修 车厂将定期取得有关卡车的性能跟进报告。如 今,在许多欧洲和亚洲及非洲主要市场里的斯卡尼亚卡车 都已经将该特点列为标准配套。第100,000辆卡车自2011 年开始就交付给Emil Eggers AG,一家从此服务中获利不 少的运输公司。
“该发展已能正常运作。”斯堪尼亚连接性服务及解决方 案主管伦德霍尔姆(Mattias Lundholm) 表示 。“这些服 务已登陆市场好几年了,而我们已经达到了能够让我们运 用该研发的关键性数量 。目前,95% 的客户接受我们激活 连接性的提议,因此我们要达到百分之百客户都采用连接 性服务的目标,绝对触手可及。”
通过一个基本且免费的配套,所有发生问题的斯堪尼亚客 户,能将车子与他们的办事处,还有斯堪尼亚修车厂产生 连接。遥控诊断和司机辅助是迄今最常用的服务。在客户 要求下,斯卡尼亚的修车厂能够进入和读取卡车的情况, 以及一些与正常运作和营运经济有关的重要参数。这使该 运输公司能够改善其使用率和财务状况。
“司机辅助是建基于可持续原则的重要工具。在改善公路 安全外,它也改善了客户的利润。”他强调说。“积极地 辅助司机和监督他们在平日工作中如何处理车子及油耗, 能够取得不少好处。这将显现在客户的盈亏和降低资源使 用方面。”
除了基本的配套,斯卡尼亚也提供了一些完全或部分建基 于连接性的服务。比如说,运输公司的电脑上可显示频繁 更新的信息 。另一个例子是自动管理行车记录数据。
“通过连接性服务,我们对斯堪尼亚为我们提供的机会有 了美好提体验。”Emil Egger AG公司的埃格尔(Michael Egger)表示。“它们是我们其他运输营运支援系统极有价 值的附加物,积极地协助我们增加正常营运时间和减低成 本。连接性的车子比较有效。对拥有相当数量的长途运输 卡车,并在瑞士各地拥有业务的我们来说,忽略这样的机 会是相当不可思议的。”
国际业界动态
In December Scania supplied its 100,000th truck with activated connectivity, which means that the owner as well as Scania’s workshops receive regular updates on the trucks’ performance. This feature is included as stan- dard in many European markets and in a number of major markets in Asia and Africa. The 100,000th vehicle since it all started in 2011 was delivered to Emil Eggers AG, a haulier that has long been drawing the full benefit of these services.
“This development has now taken off properly,” says a pleased Mattias Lundholm, head of Scania Connected Services and Solutions. “These services have been avail- able in the market for a few years now, and we have reached the critical mass needed to leverage the develop- ment. Currently 95 percent of our customers accept the offer to activate connectivity; our target of 100 percent is definitely within reach.”
All Scania customers in the markets in question are able to connect their vehicles to their own offices and to Sca- nia’s workshops, through a basic package that is free of charge. Remote Diagnostics and Driver Coaching are by far the most-used services. When customers request it, Scania’s workshops can access and read a truck’s status with regard to a number of parameters that are impor- tant for uptime and operational economy. This allows the haulier company to improve both its utilisation rate and its financial situation.
“Driver Coaching is another important tool based on sus- tainability principles. It improves our customers’ profits while improving road safety,” emphasises Mattias Lund- holm. “By actively coaching drivers and monitoring their consumption and how they handle the vehicle in their daily work, a number of benefits are experienced. These show up on our customers’ bottom lines, and also in the form of reduced resource utilisation.”
In addition to the basic package, Scania offers a number of services that are wholly or partly based on connectivity. For example, positioning information with frequent updates can be displayed on the haulier’s computers; another ex- ample is automatic management of tachographic data.
“We have excellent experience of the opportunities offered by Scania via connectivity,” says Michael Egger, Emil Eg- ger AG. “They are a valuable addition to our haulage op- eration’s other support systems and actively contribute to increased uptime and reduced operating costs. Connected vehicles are more efficient. With operations all over Swit- zerland with a considerable amount of long haulage, it would be inconceivable for us to ignore these opportuni- ties.”
