About The Customer
Skullcandy is a worldwide consumer electronics company specializing in audio products. With hundreds of SKUs and over 500 distributors and retailers globally, the company needed a versatile and efficient system to manage and share digital assets and product information to all stakeholders. The company has over 300 employees and was previously using internal systems like Dropbox and email for content management, which proved to be inefficient and unreliable.
The Challenge
Skullcandy, a global consumer electronics company, was facing a significant challenge in managing and sharing product content and digital assets with its hundreds of SKUs and over 500 distributors and retailers worldwide. The company was using internal systems like Dropbox and email for content management, which proved to be inefficient, unreliable, and time-consuming. The process of sharing, storing, and managing content was cumbersome and wasteful of valuable resources. Moreover, the idea of creating an in-house solution was deemed more problematic and maintenance-heavy than beneficial.
The Solution
Skullcandy adopted Amplifi's all-in-one Product Information Management (PIM) and Digital Asset Management (DAM) solution to streamline product content sharing for its internal teams and external retailers worldwide. This single-source system is designed for safe, accurate, and efficient product content management and sharing. Key features of the solution include product categorization and drilldown for marketing and creative teams, AI search functionality, easy kit exports for sales presentations and pitches, version control to keep outdated info and assets out of circulation, speedy digital import and file conversion tools, easy access and onboarding process, and a responsive customer support team. The solution has been fully adopted company-wide and has eliminated the need for tedious, repetitive, and time-consuming work.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
