During transportation, medicines and medical equipment need to preserve their integrity. In order to monitor key indicators in real time (e.g. temperature, pressure, vibration, humidity), J&J worked together with Capgemini to build a proof of concept solution for a smart container. The solution aggregates data from various sources (traffic patterns, weather data, GPS) and on board sensors, analyzes it in real time for exceptions and tolerance violation. It also includes email notifications for exception/rule violation and dash boarding capabilities for various devices. Using IBM technology and Capgemini pre-configurations, the solution was developed in six weeks. This validated the requirements, the technology stack and the industrialization potential.
