The science centre—with its modern technology landscape and close relationship with its long-term IT provider—is a fantastic opportunity for Bechtle to position itself as a strong IT partner in a future-oriented project. Experimenta’s concept and aims match with two focus points in Bechtle’s sponsoring strategy—children and education—and also play into Bechtle’s desire to further strengthen its roots in the region. The fact that Bechtle is a key contributor to the science centre’s information technology is another highlight of the partnership.
Smart connections from on-the-ground data to the cloud
Bechtle’s assignment centres on Experimenta’s network and security throughout its digitalisation campaign, as well as connecting all relevant systems, end devices and interactive elements. In addition, Bechtle has developed a scalable cloud solution that enables the “digital backpack” designed by Experimenta and its multimedia partners. This allows visitors to collect digital souvenirs as they walk through the exhibitions. With a special wrist band, they can plan and trace their individual science journey and track their personal results along the way. The photos, videos and other content that visitors collect are all stored in their own, secure account in the cloud so they can relive the experience at home over the internet.
A modern workplace concept realised
Bechtle has also implemented a bespoke Modern Workplace concept for Experimenta that encompasses virtual desktops, Microsoft Office 365, IP telephony, and conferencing, as well as the deployment of the required end devices, displays and printers. The data centre, exhibition area and laboratories have also been furnished with hardware and software by the IT systems integrator in neighbouring Neckarsulm. Bechtle further supplied the server and storage solutions for the science centre’s in-house rendering farm, as well as the workstations used to produce films and animations that are screened in the science dome. In terms of software, Bechtle has delivered all the business applications required for resource planning and document management.
