Switzerland: Case Studies
- DHL Network Global
- Equipped with aging and non-integrated technologies, the daily management and tracking of hundreds of flight and truck movements worldwide had become costly and inefficient for DHL. EDS upgraded the infrastructure and implemented a new, fully integrated solution based on a number of best-in-class air and road transportation applications.
- International Materials Data System (IMDS)
- With environmental concerns a priority, many countries require automobile manufacturers to keep close track of all materials used in production. Lack of a standard, however, made information exchange difficult. EDS stepped up to the plate, creating a materials management system accessible across the supply chain – and across the globe.
- Komatsu Europe International
- A new claims and warranty system relying on .NET architecture helped one of the world’s leading construction equipment companies complete its transition from an outdated mainframe infrastructure to a next-generation enterprise environment.
- Leading European Car Manufacturer
- To cut costs and ensure a consistent response to vehicle problems, this manufacturer turned to EDS for help implementing a single continentwide customer-service operation.
- Mövenpick
- Mövenpick, a Switzerland-based multinational holding company, wanted to ensure ironclad protection of its important operational data stored locally on mobile computing devices. So it turned to IT partner EDS.
- STMicroelectronics
- With 43,000 employees in 31 countries around the world, STMicroelectronics (ST) frequently moves employees among Europe, Asia and North America. Since 1996, the company has relied on EDS to manage relocations – easing the burden on ST employees while minimizing costs.
