Case Study: Schnellecke Logistics achieves a standardized, secure, IoT‑ready global network for streamlined just‑in‑time logistics with HPE Aruba Networking

Unified SD-Branch network architecture underpins digital innovation to streamline just-in-time logistics for global giant

Schnellecke Logistics, a global logistics provider supporting major automotive manufacturers across 71 sites and 13 countries, needed to standardize wired and wireless infrastructure to improve network reliability, centralize high‑performance Wi‑Fi management, strengthen security, and enable IoT and mobility innovations critical to just‑in‑time production.

Deploying an Aruba SD‑Branch architecture—Aruba CX core and access switches, Wi‑Fi 6 access points, Aruba Gateways, Aruba Central cloud management, ClearPass and Dynamic Segmentation—Schnellecke implemented cloud‑native, zero‑touch deployments and templated site profiles. The rollout standardized the global network, cut provisioning from days to hours, delivered single‑pane visibility and stronger security, and created a scalable platform to onboard IoT, autonomous systems and future growth while improving reliability and business continuity.
