About The Customer
Yeti Cycles, a high-end mountain bike manufacturer, was founded in 1985. In 2001, two Yeti employees bought the company and have since patented several leading-edge technologies, including a suspension design called Switch Infinity. The quality of Yeti’s designs is a direct reflection of their commitment to racing. The company is known for its innovative and high-quality mountain bikes, catering to both competitive and leisure-time bike riders. Yeti Cycles is based in Golden, Colorado, and has a diverse workforce passionate about biking and innovation. The company has grown significantly over the years, expanding its market reach internationally.
The Challenge
Yeti Cycles experienced extremely rapid growth that could not be supported by its prior technology solutions, including QuickBooks, in-house, and other third-party systems. The previous solution lacked the scalability required for such rapid growth, leading to inefficiencies and limitations in handling the increasing volume of operations and data. The company needed a more robust and scalable ERP solution to manage its expanding business operations effectively.
The Solution
In 2004, Yeti Cycles implemented a SYSPRO ERP solution to address its need for a scalable and flexible technology platform. The SYSPRO ERP system includes a broad suite of modules covering front-end sales orders, back-office accounting, requirements planning, and more. This comprehensive solution aligns with Yeti's cultural values of speed, efficiency, and simplicity. The ERP system's scalability allows Yeti to manage its rapid growth without adding additional IT staff. SYSPRO's integration capabilities enable seamless operations across various functions, including CRM and web platforms, supporting Yeti's international expansion and diverse order management needs.

Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.

Revolutionizing Rodent Control
From pet- and child-safe traps, to touch-free and live-catch rodent control solutions, Victor continues to stay committed to producing superior products that meet the varying needs of today’s pest control professionals. And, with a long standing history supporting customers in the food processing, service, and retail settings, Victor knew that strict regulations were costing organizations thousands of dollars in excess overhead trying to manage their rodent-control solutions. Trap inspections in these environments are often difficult and time consuming, requiring personnel to manually check a trap’s status multiple times per day, amounting to over six hours of manual labor. Victor is looking for an innovative way to increase operational efficiencies with the use of technology.
