Challenge	oee.ai, a product of IFP Software GmbH, needed a reliable IoT communication solution for their sensors stationed in factories. These sensors are used to analyze the productivity of well-known German and international manufacturers like Müller, Zentis, and Volkswagen. The company had previously used a B2B platform of a well-known network operator, but found it offered limited overview on SIM activity, poor network availability, and insufficient customer support. Network issues and dead spots of certain networks hindered reliable device communication, and the company wanted to be operator independent to ensure the device is always online. Read More
About Customer	oee.ai is a German start-up that provides productivity analysis software for European manufacturers. The company is a product of IFP Software GmbH located in Aachen. They develop an intelligent platform that analyses and evaluates manufacturing productivity based on the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and with the help of AI, without having to intervene in the machine system control. The identified causes of losses are subsequentially rectified to increase overall efficiency. Their clients include well-known German and international manufacturers like Müller, Zentis, and Volkswagen. Read More
Solution	oee.ai decided to use EMnify’s multi-network IoT SIM and management portal to always stay on top of device communication. The EMnify IoT SIM always chooses the best available network, allowing the oee.ai sensors to reliably send data with excellent connectivity in factories. Using the EMnify Portal, oee.ai can register, assign, and activate SIM cards easily. The dashboard provides a detailed overview of data consumption, network activity, and current costs. Furthermore, EMnify enables customers to proactively control the networks of their devices. Due to the inevitable 3G network shutdown, oee.ai uses the blacklisting feature on the portal to block certain networks at their customer locations to test the connectivity.
