挑战
Kyocera Document Solutions America (KDA), a subsidiary of Kyocera, was looking for ways to streamline its shipping management processes. The company manages a complex supply chain and distribution network, and the manual shipping and booking processes were proving to be tedious and inefficient. Christian Mannino, KDA's Director of Logistics, was leading the search for a solution. He oversees five facilities, including three regional distribution hubs, a parts distribution center, and a national returns center. The company needed a Transportation Management System (TMS) that could manage the entire freight lifecycle across all five facilities. The TMS needed to integrate with Oracle, centralize the rating and booking of parcel and freight shipments, provide detailed tracking of shipments, offer transparent pricing, and be easy to use.
解决方案
FreightPOP provided KDA with a cloud-based TMS platform that met all their requirements. The platform integrated with their business tools, including Oracle, and over 300+ carriers. It offered comprehensive freight tracking and data capture with customizable dashboards. The pricing was straightforward and specific for any business shipping need. The platform was user-friendly and did not require extensive training for the users. The interface was flexible and could be configured to highlight the most relevant tools and performance metrics for KDA. The detailed tracking feature of FreightPOP allowed KDA to track and quantify their shipping volume in precise detail, which was beneficial for day-to-day operations and carrier negotiations.

Leveraging the IoT to Gain a Competitive Edge in International Competition
Many large manufacturers in and outside Japan are competing for larger market share in the same space, expecting a growing demand for projectors in the areas of entertainment, which requires glamor and strong visual performance as well as digital signage that can attract people’s attention. “It is becoming more and more difficult to differentiate ourselves with stand-alone hardware products,” says Kazuyuki Kitagawa, Director of Service & Support at Panasonic AVC Networks. “In order for Panasonic to grow market share and overall business, it is essential for us to develop solutions that deliver significant added value.” Panasonic believes projection failure and quality deterioration should never happen. This is what and has driven them to make their projectors IoT-enabled. More specifically, Panasonic has developed a system that collects data from projectors, visualizes detailed operational statuses, and predicts issues and address them before failure occurs. Their projectors are embedded with a variety of sensors that measure power supply, voltage, video input/ output signals, intake/exhaust air temperatures, cooling fan operations, and light bulb operating time. These sensors have been used to make the projector more intelligent, automatically suspending operation when the temperature rises excessively, and automatically switching light bulbs. Although this was a great first step, Panasonic projectors were still not equipped with any capability to send the data over a network.
