关于客户
Danone is a leading global food and beverage corporation headquartered in Paris. The company is dedicated to bringing health through food to as many people as possible and operates in four main business areas: Essential Dairy and Plant-Based Products, Waters, Early Life Nutrition, and Medical Nutrition. Danone serves a diverse customer base, including over 1000 food distributors ranging from small 'mom & pop' stores to large retailers like Wal-Mart. With a global presence and geographically distributed operations, Danone's Accounts Receivable (A/R) processes were managed through shared services across multiple business units worldwide.
挑战
Danone faced significant challenges in its Accounts Receivable (A/R) processes due to a decentralized system and a diverse customer base. The company had to manage multiple payments and remittance formats manually, leading to increased process complexity and a high number of short pays. The A/R team spent a considerable amount of time processing electronic and check payments, which delayed dispute identification and resolution. Additionally, the manual deductions management process caused delays in dispute management, increasing the Days Deductions Outstanding (DDO) to over 45 days. The lack of automation in the collections process further affected cash flow and working capital, and the inability to identify the right customers for collections hindered customer-client relationships.
解决方案
Danone partnered with HighRadius to automate its A/R processes and improve the collections process. HighRadius implemented out-of-the-box engines for parsing remittance from multiple formats, achieving over 90% cash application automation within 90 days. Features like Email Remittance Capture, Checks AI-OCR Capture, and Web Portal Remittance Capture enabled the automatic processing of various remittance formats, significantly increasing the cash posting rate. The HighRadius Cash App Cloud solution automated the identification, matching, and coding of deductions, speeding up deduction resolution and recovery. The Deductions Cloud aggregated data from various sources, such as retailer websites and financial systems, and matched them directly to the customer, automating the entire deductions process. This increased visibility into the deductions process and allowed for timely follow-up with sales, distribution, or customers for resolution.

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.

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.
