关于客户
Lawler Foods Ltd. is a family-owned and operated manufacturer of gourmet cheesecakes, cakes, and pies that are served in restaurants, hotels, and other fine foodservice establishments around the world. The company was previously utilizing an ERP software system they struggled with for almost a decade. The system was not a proper fit for their business operations, leading to manual scheduling for three plants, which cost them nearly two days worth of labor. The scanning aspect of their previous software was a third party add-on that they didn’t receive any support when issues arose. Accounting was also operated via a third party add-on and didn’t function as “true” accounting software, therefore decreasing productivity with the accounting staff and leaving them again stranded without product support to navigate any issues.
挑战
Lawler Foods Ltd., a family-owned and operated manufacturer of gourmet cheesecakes, cakes, and pies, was previously utilizing an ERP software system they struggled with for almost a decade. The first of three main issues was the inability to use the Material Requirements Planning (MRP) functionality within the system; an improper fit left their business with individually scheduling for three plants manually which cost them nearly two days worth of labor. Secondly, the scanning aspect of their previous software was a third party add-on that they didn’t receive any support when issues arose. Finally, accounting was also operated via a third party add-on and didn’t function as “true” accounting software, therefore decreasing productivity with the accounting staff and leaving them again stranded without product support to navigate any issues.
解决方案
While evaluating their previous ERP system, Lawler decided to implement ProcessPro’s ERP solution, a fully integrated and industry-specific ERP software that strongly matched their company’s business operations and objectives. The software add-on applications included Warehouse Management Solution (WMS), Dock Scheduling, and Research and Development (R&D). Lawler implemented ProcessPro in October 2011. Their previous experience implementing other ERP systems were difficult; they had numerous contacts for each component of the software which often halted progress and was an ongoing frustration. Implementing with ProcessPro went really smooth and had the flexibility to go at the pace that was most comfortable for them.

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.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.
