About The Customer
Bakery on Main, founded in 2003 and based in East Hartford, Connecticut, specializes in premium, gluten-free products such as cereals, oatmeal, granola bars, and snacks. The company has grown rapidly and employs over 100 people. Their mission is to create healthy food that tastes great, and they have a strong focus on quality assurance to maintain their product standards.
The Challenge
Until early 2020, Bakery on Main captured quality data on paper, making it challenging to respond to production issues promptly. The company needed a solution to view data in real-time and prevent production issues that could drive down revenue. They sought a cloud-based, digital quality solution to improve visibility and accountability, enabling them to detect and address quality issues as they happened.
The Solution
Bakery on Main chose Enact, a cloud-based quality management solution from InfinityQS, to address their quality data challenges. Enact's simple interface allows users to view dashboards and test results instantly. The company installed large-screen TVs around the plant to display the dashboard, ensuring everyone from operators to quality executives could see the data. Enact sends real-time alert notifications when a process goes out of control, enabling quick responses. The tool's ease of use and navigation made it accessible to all team members, regardless of their technological proficiency.

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.
