关于客户
Established in 2009, eStore Logistics provides third party logistics services (3PL) including warehousing, order fulfilment, distribution, inventory management, reverse logistics and logistics consulting services to both online and traditional bricks and mortar businesses. The company has experienced significant growth, driven by the increasing importance of online and omni-channel retail. eStore Logistics operates a distribution center in Laverton North, Victoria, Australia, and has been focusing on enhancing its logistics operations to better serve its expanding customer base. The company aims to support its customers in driving margin enhancement and improving service levels through more streamlined logistics operations.
挑战
Following a period of accelerated growth, eStore Logistics realized the need to review its existing Warehouse Management System (WMS) which had been developed in-house and had been designed to serve a relatively small number of customers. As online growth and omni-channel continues to drive innovation and new options for consumers, retailers are placing greater importance on the fulfilment side of their operations and the role it plays in improving customer satisfaction. A few years ago, retailers directed more attention to web design, store layout, merchandising and front end systems but today their commerce strategies are increasingly focused around seamless order execution and the supporting fulfilment processes. Understanding the changing retail landscape and the subsequent needs of its customers, eStore Logistics looked to implement a WMS that could accommodate its growing customer base and their changing needs. They needed a solution that would help drive margin enhancement for their customers by enabling a more efficient logistics operation. They also wanted to help their customers accelerate growth in revenue and profitability through the delivery of higher service levels to the end consumer, which could not be done with their existing system.
解决方案
Manhattan SCALE was selected for its scalability, its ability to be easily integrated with other business and client systems, and because it offered the breadth and depth of functionality needed to meet customers’ evolving needs. Since the deployment of Manhattan SCALE, eStore Logistics has experienced a number of key benefits across its operations. These include improved inventory management and control, increased visibility of available space in the warehouse, and more complex wave flows providing more efficient outbound handling processes specific to different client/stock/order profiles. The solution also enabled eStore Logistics to integrate with new clients faster and run multiple sites, while decreasing IT and administration personnel costs despite servicing increased inbound and outbound volumes. Additionally, the product’s unique 3D cubing functionality has contributed to cost-effective order fulfilment by recommending the smallest possible packaging to minimize shipping costs. eStore Logistics is also looking to implement additional modules from Manhattan’s portfolio of solutions, including Yard Management and Labour Management, to further enhance their logistics capabilities.

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.
Case Study
Ensures Cold Milk in Your Supermarket
As of 2014, AK-Centralen has over 1,500 Danish supermarkets equipped, and utilizes 16 operators, and is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. AK-Centralen needed the ability to monitor the cooling alarms from around the country, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each and every time the door to a milk cooler or a freezer does not close properly, an alarm goes off on a computer screen in a control building in southwestern Odense. This type of alarm will go off approximately 140,000 times per year, equating to roughly 400 alarms in a 24-hour period. Should an alarm go off, then there is only a limited amount of time to act before dairy products or frozen pizza must be disposed of, and this type of waste can quickly start to cost a supermarket a great deal of money.
Case Study
Supermarket Energy Savings
The client had previously deployed a one-meter-per-store monitoring program. Given the manner in which energy consumption changes with external temperature, hour of the day, day of week and month of year, a single meter solution lacked the ability to detect the difference between a true problem and a changing store environment. Most importantly, a single meter solution could never identify root cause of energy consumption changes. This approach never reduced the number of truck-rolls or man-hours required to find and resolve issues.
