关于客户
ThredUp is an online consignment shop that sells “practically new” clothing. Based in San Francisco, the company is dedicated to helping busy people while building sustainable clothing practices. ThredUp’s success depends on efficient inventory management, from the moment they acquire a piece of clothing to the moment they deliver it to a customer. Its executives are nimble, and the business has thrived thanks to their ability to adapt. However, until recently, the company’s data management system lacked the power and flexibility to grow with the business. ThredUp has an extremely complex data environment. As a large-scale aggregator of used one-off clothing items, they have a huge number of SKUs and a very broad supply chain — so data is critical to their success.
挑战
ThredUp, an online consignment shop, faced challenges in managing its complex data environment. As a large-scale aggregator of used one-off clothing items, they had a huge number of SKUs and a very broad supply chain. The company's distribution center collected information as clothes were inspected, itemized, categorized, packed, and shipped. By analyzing that data and integrating it with sales and marketing data, company management could discover which types of inventory were most valuable, how best to ensure quality, and how to increase transactional volume. However, their existing data management system lacked the power and flexibility to grow with the business. They needed a business intelligence system that could provide full, real-time analytics to anyone with an account login and would enable users to collaborate on iterative exploration of a shared data repository.
解决方案
ThredUp implemented the Looker business intelligence (BI) platform to improve its ability to streamline logistics and track clothing through the sales process. The Looker platform demonstrated that it could provide full, real-time analytics to anyone with an account login and would enable users to collaborate on iterative exploration of a shared data repository. Looker also proved it could work with ThredUp’s existing data processes and that the technology would adapt to any process changes as the business grows. By implementing the Looker BI platform, ThredUp knew it could cut down on the resources needed to extract insight from its data. And by speeding up the analysis process, the company could gain significant flexibility to act on data-driven insights and improve business results.

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.

Ensures Cold Milk in Your Supermarket
As of 2014, AK-Centralen has over 1,500 Danish supermarkets equipped, and utilizes 16 operators, and is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. AK-Centralen needed the ability to monitor the cooling alarms from around the country, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each and every time the door to a milk cooler or a freezer does not close properly, an alarm goes off on a computer screen in a control building in southwestern Odense. This type of alarm will go off approximately 140,000 times per year, equating to roughly 400 alarms in a 24-hour period. Should an alarm go off, then there is only a limited amount of time to act before dairy products or frozen pizza must be disposed of, and this type of waste can quickly start to cost a supermarket a great deal of money.
Case Study
Supermarket Energy Savings
The client had previously deployed a one-meter-per-store monitoring program. Given the manner in which energy consumption changes with external temperature, hour of the day, day of week and month of year, a single meter solution lacked the ability to detect the difference between a true problem and a changing store environment. Most importantly, a single meter solution could never identify root cause of energy consumption changes. This approach never reduced the number of truck-rolls or man-hours required to find and resolve issues.
