关于客户
180 Innovations is a private-label manufacturer offering a full range of health and beauty products. The company specializes in thermometry and produces oral, skin and hair care products. Supplying retailers such as Marshalls, Rite-Aid, and CVS, 180 Innovations distributes across North America. The company is known for its innovative approach to technology and was looking for a solution to move their freight management process from paper to one optimized for the digital age.
挑战
In 2016, 180 Innovations began experiencing a rapid period of growth, which necessitated a shift from small parcel shipments via the postal service to LTL shipping. With these increased freight needs, the company realized the need to optimize their processes rather than scaling an old system. The company was looking for a solution that could handle their increasing business, without needing to scale their previously manual process. The challenge was to find a system that could rate, book and track shipments with ease as well as automatically create BOLs.
解决方案
To address their challenges, 180 Innovations adopted Kuebix TMS as their transportation management system. This system allowed them to easily rate, book and track shipments, as well as automatically create BOLs. The TMS also provided the flexibility to modify shipments, which helped to keep product flowing and customers happy. The implementation of Kuebix TMS made 180 Innovations’ transportation operations faster and more efficient.

Case Study
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.

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.
