关于客户
NewAir is a thriving business that manufactures, repairs, and distributes a large range of small household appliances. From beer and wine fridges to humidors and portable cooling and heating products, NewAir products are carried by the largest retailers in North America such as Target, Walmart, Home Depot, and Lowes. Dedicated to exceptional customer service from their responsive North American in-house call center, NewAir is housed in a large warehouse facility that has over 100+ SKU’s. NewAir not only drop ships product directly from orders placed via eCommerce sales platforms, but also drives B2B transactions with appliance wholesalers, and processes sales orders directly via their own website.
挑战
In 2018, NewAir decided to review their homegrown system and focus on gaining better inventory visibility, as well as the departmental visibility that comes with integrating one Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution. NetSuite was chosen as their ERP, and NewAir went live in February 2019. As part of the project, several SuiteApp solutions were evaluated to provide a warehouse barcoding solution to make inventory more accurate. NewAir wanted to replace their previous systems, which relied heavily on the tribal knowledge of the warehouse staff and a dependence on excel spreadsheets. NewAir selected a WMS, but it was soon discovered after going live that the solution would require far more customization and expensive development to make the product work. The WMS functionality frustrated the warehouse staff because the orders were slow to get out the door. Additionally, NewAir felt they were not receiving the support they needed. The main issue was that every time they needed more information, they would be told they needed more training, which would be costly.
解决方案
NewAir decided to revisit the SuiteApp options to get their inventory and warehouse processes better integrated with NetSuite. They received two positive reviews from companies using RF-SMART and chose it to replace the incumbent solution. The difference was immediately evident when the RF-SMART project manager came onsite to walk through the warehouse to fully understand the processes in place. This hands-on approach helped NewAir understand their options and empowered them with the knowledge to manage the system themselves. Training was found to be easy, and the warehouse staff quickly adapted to the change. Management has open access to each module of RF-SMART and can request further functionality.

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.

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.
