SOLUTION DESCRIPTION



Problem :

Transportation safety is a major global issue. Every year more than one million people die on the

roads, making road traffic incidents one of the top 10 causes of death around the world. According to

the World Health Organization, traffic injuries are also the leading cause of death among young

people aged between 15 and 29 years, and cost governments approximately 3% of GDP. Safe and

efficient transportation is the backbone of our society and the global economy. Ensuring roads and

highways are accident-free serves the best interests of a sustainable world.


#InnovationStory




Solution :

Although road traffic injuries have been a leading cause of mortality for many years, a substantial

portion of the crashes are both predictable and preventable. NTT and SAP collaborated to develop an

IoT solution - Connected Transportation Safety, aiming to provide more accurate and real-time

information about vehicles’ and drivers’ conditions. In Connected Transportation Safety, we integrate

SAP Cloud Platform with NTT Internet of Things analytics platform and NTT’s hitoe®, which is a smart

shirt capable of measuring biomedical signals. Based on the collected data, which includes GPS

location, driver’s posture and driver’s biological data, we can provide a comprehensive safety analysis

and detect safety threats in real time. By reducing the accidents caused by driver fatigue and

abnormal driving behavior, this solution can provide benefits for all parties.


#InnovationStory




Customer Story :

Keifuku Bus Company is located in Fukui, Japan and has approximately 300 employees and 200

buses. The company aims to speed up its digital transformation, and hopes to monitor the status of

all drivers and buses to ensure transportation safety. It began to pilot Connected Transportation

Safety system since October 2016. During the pilot, over a dozen of drivers took on the shirt and

drove more than 50 shifts. The data are collected and analyzed by CTS system in real time, and fleet

manager could monitor the health condition of each driver. The pilot turned out to be a great success

as it demonstrated how SAP system and cutting-edge IoT technology can be combined to reduce

traffic injuries and fatalities.

QUOTE FROM STAKEHOLDER

STAKEHOLDER QUOTE

Sachihiro Amaya, president of Keifuku Bus Company, “This project makes it possible to monitor a

driver’s conditions continuously in real time. Thanks to making good use of this data, we can catch

the drivers’ unusual movements when he is driving and an abnormality occurs. We expect that this

will help us make the vehicle stop safely.”

Jun Sawada, senior EVP, CFO/CIO/CCO, NTT Group CEO, NTT Security, *“NTT wants to contribute

to business transformation for its enterprise customers by providing quality, value-added services

with partners. A global partnership with SAP is a significant step to strengthen our competitive edge.

This partnership will help NTT enhance capabilities to support our global clients, and can accelerate

digital transformation of industries.”

STAKEHOLDER QUOTE

Robert Enslin, president of Global Customer Operations and member of the Executive Board of SAP

SE, SAP, “We are honored to partner with NTT Group, which runs the world’s biggest data centers.

This partnership gives SAP a significant ability to broaden customers’ choices for facilitating digital

transformation. The integration of NTT’s cutting-edge technologies and SAP’s revolutionary solutions

will generate momentum to elevate the overall market to the next level.” *

*September 15th ,2016 Press Release http://news.sap.com/sap-and-ntt-enhance-global-partnership/

Wen-syan Li, head of IoT SCM and Strategic Projects, SAP APJ and Greater China, “This is a great

innovation story about SAP and NTT using IoT technology to save lives. These two companies are

working together to make the transportation industry safer so that events like the tragedy of the bus

accident don’t have to happen again. This is not just about revenue, it’s about people.”

BUSINESS CHALLENGES

BUSINESS CHALLENGES


In a report from U.S. Department of Transportation, we find that human error comprises 94 percent

of the vehicle crashes at the national level in the year of 2015. According to the Saudi traffic police

report (Ministry of Interior, 2013), 91% of all accidents involved human factors, 7% accounted for

vehicle factors, and 2% were associated with road environments. It is obvious that if we can

strengthen the least reliable part of the system, the driver, we can make significant improvement in

transportation safety.

In order to provide a comprehensive and real time monitoring on driver’s status. We need to capture

the precise bio signals from the heart and muscles of the driver without disturbing his delivery work.

No delay should occur during data transmission. Furthermore, specialized and accurate algorithms

are required to handle the multidimensional data efficiently.

HUMAN EMPOWERMENT

HUMAN EMPOWERMENT

Connected Transportation Safety, serving as a perfect monitoring tool for the manager level, can provide

comprehensive safety analysis for fleet manager and detect safety threats before accidents occur.

A safer and efficient transportation system can improve the quality of people’s lives and lower

household expenses resulted from traffic injuries and fatalities.

As a strong support for drivers, Connected Transportation Safety combines the predictive capabilities

of SAP Cloud Platform with NTT’s IoT analytics for hitoe, to detect driver fatigue, stress level and

abnormal driving behavior in real time. Once threats occur, the system will radio the drivers and alert

them on mobile device.

BUSINESS / SOCIAL VALUE

BUSINESS AND SOCIAL VALUE

Social Value:

Traffic accidents impose intangible and financial costs to society. These costs include reduced quality

of life, reduced productivity, medical and other resource costs. According to a report from New

Zealand Government, “social cost of road crashes and injuries 2015 update”, in per-crash terms, the

updated average social cost is estimated at $4,709,000 per fatal crash, $900,000 per reported

serious crash and $ 95,000 per reported minor crash. By improving transportation safety, we hope to

save people’s lives and lower social cost of road injuries.



#InnovationStory




NTT View

Open the door to various clients(public transportation, logistics, insurance and so on). Expecting further utilization of related SAP solutions.

Only 2 months field trial proved the concept that this system can estimate mental fatigue of drivers with hitoe®. Real-time warning supports operating managers to prevent accidents before they happen.


#InnovationStory



Business Partnership Value:

For the business value, as Robert Enslin said, who is the president of Global Customer Operations

and member of the Executive Board of SAP SE, SAP, “We are honored to partner with NTT Group,

which runs the world’s biggest data centers. This partnership gives SAP a significant ability to

broaden customers’ choices for facilitating digital transformation. The integration of NTT’s cutting-

edge technologies and SAP’s revolutionary solutions will generate momentum to elevate the overall

market to the next level.”

Project Reputation:

Connected Transportation Safety showcase has been demonstrated to many global leaders and

enterprises in a lot of high-profile events in 2016 such as Guiyang Big Data Expo, SAP IoT Summit in

Beijing and Tokyo, World Internet Conference in Wuzhen, Huawei HCC, and was reported on various

newspapers, televisions and web portals. The demo was also showed to Chancellor of Germany

Angela Merkel during her visit in Shenyang, China on June 14th, 2016. For the coming 2017, as a

candidate showcase, CTS will be introduced to more people in the Mobile World Congress in

Barcelona and CeBIT in Hannover. Furthermore, the government of Abu Dhabi is also considering

piloting CTS to ensure school bus safety. These events not only exhibit the companies’ strong

technology foundation and social responsibility, but also demonstrate how the cutting-edge IoT

technology can be utilized to save people’s lives.
