关于客户
Seattle-based Darigold, Inc., has been producing fresh dairy products for people around the globe since 1918. To stay competitive, it recognized the need to find efficiencies and cost savings in its manufacturing and distribution facilities. In particular, Darigold sought to track all maintenance costs in one place, streamline the repair and upkeep process of its lift trucks and standardize its fleet to ensure the proper equipment was used in all of its applications. In search of web-based applications to address its needs, Darigold turned to Raymond Handling Concepts Corporation (RHCC) and the comprehensive line of Raymond® lift trucks.
挑战
RHCC spent a significant amount of time getting to know how Darigold operated to discover its unique challenges. Following several visits to various distribution and production centers, RHCC noted that Darigold could not definitively identify what it was spending per facility on maintenance issues and repairs. In addition, it did not have a way to track overall fleet costs from one location, and it was locally leasing equipment in an inefficient manner. By continuing to study Darigold’s business, RHCC learned that each facility produced an assortment of milk, powdered milk, cheese and butter products. As a result, its lift trucks needed to stand up to the challenge of multiple working environments, such as washdown stations and cold storage.
解决方案
With 13 plant locations, two standalone distribution sites and a production of 8 billion pounds of milk per year, service and uptime are crucial to Darigold’s business. With these facts in mind, RHCC suggested the iTRACK system, a fleet tracking system that provides actionable fleet maintenance data reports that can span from individual trucks to collective lift truck data for multiple facilities, allowing for an overall snapshot of Darigold’s maintenance and productivity. The iTRACK system also enabled Darigold to monitor and reduce its overall costs per operating hour. The iTRACK system enabled Darigold to immediately see benefits through an integrated Web portal and assess the efficiency and productivity of its fleet. Through the close observation of its fleet, Darigold also was able to decrease its dependency on leased equipment, as it can now plan and anticipate maintenance activity.

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.
