关于客户
Meyers is a Midwest-based printing company that designs and manufactures signage, label, and card solutions for retail clients. Their clients range from some of the world’s most established brands to emerging companies. Meyers’ products are paired with the nation’s top merchandise and can be seen at virtually every retail outlet in the United States. The company produces high-value items that are visible to countless consumers across North America, making the quality and condition of their products upon arrival critical to their business.
挑战
Meyers aimed to alleviate labor-intensive processes while reducing costs across the board and maintaining a high level of quality. The company was looking for transportation efficiencies and cost savings when they became a C.H. Robinson customer in 2009. Meyers needed to ensure that their high-value items arrived at their destinations without damage, maintaining the quality that countless consumers see around North America. Efficient transportation was crucial, but quality was equally important. Meyers also valued strong customer service and a collaborative relationship with their logistics provider to drive strategic solutions and continuous improvements.
解决方案
C.H. Robinson teams worked with Meyers to develop and implement customized solutions that included advanced reporting tools and assessments to identify opportunities to save time and money. They began by moving Meyers’ products with less than truckload (LTL) and truckload service, and then expanded to include ground, express, and international small parcel services. A knowledgeable C.H. Robinson account manager guided the implementation processes, ensuring a smooth transition. The collaborative relationship between Meyers and C.H. Robinson allowed for open and honest conversations about current and future needs, driving more strategic solutions and continuous improvements. Enhanced reporting tools provided tailored reports that fit Meyers’ business needs, enabling them to make more informed business decisions.

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.
