关于客户
Based in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Century is the world’s largest manufacturer and distributor of individual contact sports equipment. The company sells products to support martial arts, mixed martial arts, boxing, and kickboxing around the globe through Internet, catalogue, and retail channels. Century distributes products under its own name, and also under other major brands such as TapouT, UFC, and adidas. Beginning with a 50,000 square foot facility, the company plant has expanded to a single facility with more than 550,000 square feet. It houses the sewing operation, shipping and receiving, and administrative offices.
挑战
Century Martial Arts faced numerous competitive pressures and was constantly challenged with the need to reduce costs while providing a superior customer experience. Upgrades to the existing AS400 were costly, making it difficult to keep pace with growth and technology developments.
解决方案
Century Martial Arts moved to a Microsoft-based client server platform and deployed the Manhattan SCALE warehouse management solution to comply with the new operating environment and better position the company for the future. The implementation finished eight weeks ahead of schedule and significantly under budget. More importantly, Century didn’t experience any downtime and never missed a day of order fulfillment or shipping—making the transition completely seamless in its distribution center. Century attributes the successful installation to the team of experts from within the company and from Manhattan Associates. The combination of expertise from their IT and distribution teams, blended with the expertise of the Manhattan SCALE team, was the primary reason the project was completed early and under budget.

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.
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.
