关于客户
Epson is a global technology leader dedicated to co-creating sustainability and enriching communities by leveraging its efficient, compact, and precision technologies and digital technologies to connect people, things, and information. The company is focused on solving societal issues through innovations in home and office printing, commercial and industrial printing, manufacturing, visual, and lifestyle. Epson will become carbon negative and eliminate the use of exhaustible underground resources such as oil and metal by 2050. Led by the Japan-based Seiko Epson Corporation, the worldwide Epson Group generates annual sales of around JPY 1 trillion. Epson Europe B.V., based in Amsterdam, is the Group’s regional headquarters for Europe, Middle-East, Russia, and Africa. With a workforce of 1,700 employees, Epson Europe’s sales for fiscal year 2015 were 1,577 million Euros.
挑战
Epson Europe required 147 InDesign files to be translated into 25+ languages for product packaging, marketing materials, and banner ads. These assets needed to be ready before the launch of their largest and highest-visibility marketing campaign of the year. Typically, a Language Service Provider (LSP) would take six to eight weeks to complete this type of job, but Epson Europe needed it done in just two weeks. With a drop-dead deadline and no option for failure, the brand asked Lionbridge to figure out how to significantly shave off production time to meet the aggressive time frame without sacrificing quality.
解决方案
Lionbridge leveraged its eight-year partnership with Epson Europe to quickly assemble a team. The project management team, language support team, and translators were all familiar with the company due to the longstanding relationship. This familiarity ensured a smooth process. Furthermore, the translators’ understanding of Epson Europe’s brand voice meant fewer revisions during review cycles and faster results. While much of the translation work followed standard process, Lionbridge devised a creative plan that enabled the project to be completed more rapidly than the industry standard. The plan involved the implementation of simultaneous reviews and comprehensive communications. Epson Europe agreed to conduct some reviews simultaneously instead of in a linear fashion. For instance, instead of having one person conduct Desktop Publishing (DTP) quality reviews for all languages, the work was split up by language; one person reviewed one or two languages. Lionbridge dedicated 15 people to the quality review process as opposed to one person. By making these types of changes, Lionbridge reduced the DTP review process time by 75%. Lionbridge also put numerous communications initiatives in place including underscoring the urgency of the project to internal teams before the work began, meeting with Epson Europe every three days instead of adhering to a typical biweekly schedule, and using a status document that enabled real-time updates.

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.
