关于客户
Wye Cylinder Engineering Ltd (WCE) 是一家位于赫里福德的制造商,在设计和制造多种液压缸方面拥有 50 多年的经验。他们的产品广泛应用于农业、建筑和专用车辆等行业。 WCE 使用的是一家总部位于美国的中端市场 ERP 供应商销售的制造系统,财务和会计由 Sage 的软件执行,维护由另一个系统处理。然而,他们的现有系统面临着挑战,需要更全面、持续改进的 ERP 系统。
挑战
2015年,精密液压缸制造商Wye Cylinder Engineering Ltd (WCE)面临着重大挑战。他们现有的制造系统正在被供应商淘汰,供应商建议迁移到替代系统。然而,这个替代系统是为更大的企业设计的,缺乏大量的英国用户群体。 WCE 对他们的新系统有特定的要求,包括活跃的用户群、持续的开发和改进以及庞大的英国客户群。由于其业务性质,他们还需要高度发展的 MRP II 功能。当他们探索企业系统市场时,他们意识到需要一个能够满足他们所有要求的综合 ERP 系统。
解决方案
在探索各种系统后,WCE 在 Exel Computer Systems 的 EFACS E/8 ERP 系统中找到了解决方案。实施过程非常简单,并于 2016 年初上线。WCE 向 16 个完整的 EFACS 用户和 13 个工厂车间用户授予了 EFACS 车间数据捕获功能的许可。他们广泛使用了 EFACS E/8 的 MRP II 功能和车间数据捕获功能。 WCE 还编写了一些定制代码来提供特定的附加功能。随着时间的推移,他们开始使用 EFACS E/8 的容量规划功能并升级到更新版本以利用附加功能。最新的升级包括对 Microsoft Edge Web 浏览器的全面支持、新的银行对账功能以及银行和金融领域的多项改进。

Real-time In-vehicle Monitoring
The telematic solution provides this vital premium-adjusting information. The solution also helps detect and deter vehicle or trailer theft – as soon as a theft occurs, monitoring personnel can alert the appropriate authorities, providing an exact location.“With more and more insurance companies and major fleet operators interested in monitoring driver behaviour on the grounds of road safety, efficient logistics and costs, the market for this type of device and associated e-business services is growing rapidly within Italy and the rest of Europe,” says Franco.“The insurance companies are especially interested in the pay-per-use and pay-as-you-drive applications while other organisations employ the technology for road user charging.”“One million vehicles in Italy currently carry such devices and forecasts indicate that the European market will increase tenfold by 2014.However, for our technology to work effectively, we needed a highly reliable wireless data network to carry the information between the vehicles and monitoring stations.”

Safety First with Folksam
The competitiveness of the car insurance market is driving UBI growth as a means for insurance companies to differentiate their customer propositions as well as improving operational efficiency. An insurance model - usage-based insurance ("UBI") - offers possibilities for insurers to do more efficient market segmentation and accurate risk assessment and pricing. Insurers require an IoT solution for the purpose of data collection and performance analysis

Smooth Transition to Energy Savings
The building was equipped with four end-of-life Trane water cooled chillers, located in the basement. Johnson Controls installed four York water cooled centrifugal chillers with unit mounted variable speed drives and a total installed cooling capacity of 6,8 MW. Each chiller has a capacity of 1,6 MW (variable to 1.9MW depending upon condenser water temperatures). Johnson Controls needed to design the equipment in such way that it would fit the dimensional constraints of the existing plant area and plant access route but also the specific performance requirements of the client. Morgan Stanley required the chiller plant to match the building load profile, turn down to match the low load requirement when needed and provide an improvement in the Energy Efficiency Ratio across the entire operating range. Other requirements were a reduction in the chiller noise level to improve the working environment in the plant room and a wide operating envelope coupled with intelligent controls to allow possible variation in both flow rate and temperature. The latter was needed to leverage increased capacity from a reduced number of machines during the different installation phases and allow future enhancement to a variable primary flow system.

Automated Pallet Labeling Solution for SPR Packaging
SPR Packaging, an American supplier of packaging solutions, was in search of an automated pallet labeling solution that could meet their immediate and future needs. They aimed to equip their lines with automatic printer applicators, but also required a solution that could interface with their accounting software. The challenge was to find a system that could read a 2D code on pallets at the stretch wrapper, track the pallet, and flag any pallets with unread barcodes for inspection. The pallets could be single or double stacked, and the system needed to be able to differentiate between the two. SPR Packaging sought a system integrator with extensive experience in advanced printing and tracking solutions to provide a complete traceability system.

Transforming insurance pricing while improving driver safety
The Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing the car insurance industry on a scale not seen since the introduction of the car itself. For decades, premiums have been calculated using proxy-based risk assessment models and historical data. Today, a growing number of innovative companies such as Quebec-based Industrielle Alliance are moving to usage-based insurance (UBI) models, driven by the advancement of telematics technologies and smart tracking devices.

MasterCard Improves Customer Experience Through Self-Service Data Prep
Derek Madison, Leader of Business Financial Support at MasterCard, oversees the validation of transactions and cash between two systems, whether they’re MasterCard owned or not. He was charged with identifying new ways to increase efficiency and improve MasterCard processes. At the outset, the 13-person team had to manually reconcile system interfaces using reports that resided on the company’s mainframe. Their first order of business each day was to print 20-30 individual, multi-page reports. Using a ruler to keep their place within each report, they would then hand-key the relevant data, line by line, into Excel for validation. “We’re talking about a task that took 40-80 hours each week,” recalls Madison, “As a growing company with rapidly expanding product offerings, we had to find a better way to prepare this data for analysis.”
