挑战
Jack Nadel International (JNI) is a marketing and promotional products agency that specializes in brand identity reinforcement and maintenance. The Los Angeles-based company serves as an extension of its clients’ sales and marketing teams, combining creative and unique merchandising solutions with cutting-edge information technology to help companies achieve their marketing goals. The company was facing challenges with its existing information distribution system which was slow and paper-based. This was causing delays in providing critical information to administrators, sales personnel, and staff. Additionally, JNI was experiencing data quality issues due to the interface between their Lawson ERP system and a Web front end built in Domino. These issues were causing errors in orders and billing, leading to significant business disruptions.
解决方案
JNI decided to integrate WebFOCUS with their order-entry system to enable self-service reporting. They created role-based dashboards that provide personnel with information. WebFOCUS was chosen due to its ease of deployment and comprehensive problem-solving capabilities. The company deployed WebFOCUS Developer Studio and built a parameter-driven reporting system integrated with JNI’s MyNadel order-processing system. This system is used by virtually everyone in the organization, including the CEO and CFO. WebFOCUS also streamlines important workflow processes. For example, instead of sending monthly packets to the sales force, reps use WebFOCUS to view sales information whenever they want. JNI uses a WebFOCUS feature – conditional styling – to alert users to specific issues that may need to be addressed.

Jaguar Land Rover Speeds Order-to-Cash Cycle
At Jaguar Land Rover, vehicles physically move around the facility for testing, configuration setting, rework and rectification, leading to a longer search time to get each vehicle to its next process facility. The main goal is to minimize the vehicles' dwell time between end of line and the delivery chain which was previously a manually intensive process. Jaguar Land Rover's goal was to build on the success of an earlier RFID project and improve the efficiency of delivering vehicles to meet dealer orders.
Case Study
Retail Uses RFID to Enable Cold Chain Monitoring
Like most grocery retailers, Hy-Vee is faced with the challenge of providing the highest quality products to its shoppers. Shoppers want the longest possible shelf life from perishable products and expect a consistent product experience each time they shop. Controlling the quality of products sold leads to shopper loyalty, which is of paramount importance to the success of Hy-Vee. Before products arrive in stores, Hy-Vee's distribution centers (DCs) handle items including dairy products, fresh meats, seafood, deli items, produce and frozen goods, all of which have different temperature needs and sensitivities. During transit from suppliers to DCs, Hy-Vee has limited visibility and temperature management abilities due to large amount of supplier managed transportation. For instance, during a week-long transit, a supplier's carrier equipment may malfunction, causing an item to thaw and then refreeze once repairs are made. Hy-Vee sought help from TempTRIP, an RFID solution provider that focuses on shipping, storage, receiving, and temperature control. TempTRIP's EPC RFID tags use Impinj chips to monitor and report temperature readings throughout the shipping and receiving process. The tags can also be re-configured and re-used, a unique feature within the current market of temperature monitoring devices.
