What is Asset Tracking
Asset Tracking is one of the essentials of Industry 4.0. It’s what helps industries keep a real-time digital watch on their machines using sensors, data, and smart analytics.
Our Expertise
Our experience in this area has been building software solutions to enhance current System Engineering capabilities for Distributed Control Systems (DCS) using Asset Attributes and run-time Condition Monitoring to monitor, detect, and report asset health in near real-time.
Our Solution
The Solutions that we have helped to develop have also provided the capability to monitor OPC (Open Platform Communications) protocol data sources for various conditions and report those detected to the Maintenance Response Center (MRC) and various SCADA systems (HMIs).
Case Study
Plant Performance Console for Smart Factory
Customer: Schneider • Domain: OPC DA • PLC Conditions • SCADA• Team: 3 • Timeline: 24 months
Project Managers at Schneider Electric were struggling with delivery of a strategically important product. The current partnerships were not able to make things happen. Milestones were slipping away and quality was not upto the mark. Functionality was piled up and showed no signs of being under control. If some drastic steps would not have been taken, it would have been a lost cause. The product would not have seen the light of the day and it would have been a lost opportunity.
Customer Challenge
- Rescue of a failing product delivery
- Strategic Schneider Electric initiative was at risk due to missed milestones, poor quality, and uncontrolled scope.
What We Did
- WonderBiz deployed a focused expert team
- A 3-member crack team rebuilt core capabilities, automated bulk workflows, and delivered the second-generation product.

Testimonial
“For the last three years, I have been working, very closely with the WonderBiz team, on one of our Product Development Programs and have thoroughly enjoyed working with them. We have been working on some very complex projects and integrations that demand, a high level of technical ability, quick turn-around time and quality of the highest levels. I have found the WonderBiz team to be enthusiastic, responsive & professional to take ownership of the work they do. They understand the work domain quickly and not only deliver projects on time & with highest levels of quality, but their overall engagement during the project execution is just amazing. As a example, in one of our projects, where the application performance NFRs (Non-Functional Requirements) were crucial, the WonderBiz team had come up with many different alternative solutions. They went ahead and prototyped all of these, to demonstrate the approaches, pointing out their pros and cons. This enabled the Product Management team to take informed decisions and invest appropriately. Instances like these continue to keep me amazed at the commitment that the WonderBiz team demonstrates in their pursuit of Customer Delight."
Because of WonderBiz, we could launch not one, but several applications to our end users! These applications have now set a new benchmark in providing greater business value." ”
