Description of assignment

At Vanderlande, we are transforming the way we manage service operations by integrating data-driven insights into our service operations. The ongoing “Service Insights” project aims to proactively detect anomalies and predict anomalies in material handling process using machine learning and real-time data analysis. While we’ve built a series of Splunk-based dashboards and data models, we’re now seeking an intern to dive deeper into these tools, validate their accuracy, and explore untapped opportunities for optimization and predictive maintenance. A key research question for this assignment is: How can we evolve existing analytics and machine learning models into intelligent, self-learning systems that not only detect anomalies in real time but also anticipate future failures with high confidence, enabling zero downtime operations in high-volume logistics environments?
