关于客户
Blackhawk Network Holdings Inc. is a privately held company operating in the prepaid, gift card, and payments industries. It sells branded physical and digital gift, phone, prepaid debit, and incentive cards online and through a network of global retailers. The company processes over $150K per year, with 75% of transactions being electronic payments. The A/R team consists of 7 full-time employees managing ten business units. BlackHawk faced significant challenges in their accounts receivable operations, including high deduction aging and a lack of standardized workflows.
挑战
The BlackHawk A/R team faced significant challenges due to the lack of a standardized workflow. They had critically high deduction aging with over 2000+ line items that were more than two years old, and over 100+ line items per deduction. The team also faced slow cash application for prepayments, difficulties with payments received with non-invoice reference numbers, and payments with incomplete or missing remittances. Additionally, the deductions team struggled with high volume per deduction, no workflow for deductions management, and lack of visibility into performance.
解决方案
HighRadius provided BlackHawk with AI-powered Cash Application Cloud and Deductions Cloud solutions. The Cash Application Cloud enabled straight-through cash posting, automated invoice matching, and auto-identification and submission of remittance in no remittance scenarios. This automation helped BlackHawk apply cash faster, improve customer experience, and save time lost in manual efforts. The Deductions Cloud offered automatic data aggregation, automatic trade deduction settlement, and automated correspondence with internal stakeholders. This provided a structured workflow, streamlined inter-department communication, and greater visibility into the deductions process.

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.
Case Study
Improving Production Line Efficiency with Ethernet Micro RTU Controller
Moxa was asked to provide a connectivity solution for one of the world's leading cosmetics companies. This multinational corporation, with retail presence in 130 countries, 23 global braches, and over 66,000 employees, sought to improve the efficiency of their production process by migrating from manual monitoring to an automatic productivity monitoring system. The production line was being monitored by ABB Real-TPI, a factory information system that offers data collection and analysis to improve plant efficiency. Due to software limitations, the customer needed an OPC server and a corresponding I/O solution to collect data from additional sensor devices for the Real-TPI system. The goal is to enable the factory information system to more thoroughly collect data from every corner of the production line. This will improve its ability to measure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and translate into increased production efficiencies. System Requirements • Instant status updates while still consuming minimal bandwidth to relieve strain on limited factory networks • Interoperable with ABB Real-TPI • Small form factor appropriate for deployment where space is scarce • Remote software management and configuration to simplify operations

How Sirqul’s IoT Platform is Crafting Carrefour’s New In-Store Experiences
Carrefour Taiwan’s goal is to be completely digital by end of 2018. Out-dated manual methods for analysis and assumptions limited Carrefour’s ability to change the customer experience and were void of real-time decision-making capabilities. Rather than relying solely on sales data, assumptions, and disparate systems, Carrefour Taiwan’s CEO led an initiative to find a connected IoT solution that could give the team the ability to make real-time changes and more informed decisions. Prior to implementing, Carrefour struggled to address their conversion rates and did not have the proper insights into the customer decision-making process nor how to make an immediate impact without losing customer confidence.

Digital Retail Security Solutions
Sennco wanted to help its retail customers increase sales and profits by developing an innovative alarm system as opposed to conventional connected alarms that are permanently tethered to display products. These traditional security systems were cumbersome and intrusive to the customer shopping experience. Additionally, they provided no useful data or analytics.
