关于客户
Zale Corporation is a leading specialty retailer of diamonds and other jewelry products in North America, operating more than 2,050 retail locations throughout the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico, as well as online. The corporation employs over 15,000 people worldwide and is a Fortune 1000 company with annual sales near $2 billion. Zale Corporation's Client Server Access Request is utilized by all employees to request access to systems, make changes in system permissions, gain access to internal servers, and resolve general systems issues. Prior to automation, the process was slow, paper-intensive, and prone to bottlenecks, making it a burden for all involved.
挑战
The Client Server Access Request process at Zale Corporation was highly inefficient, relying on manual paper forms that were time-consuming and prone to bottlenecks. Each of the 15,000 employees needed to fill out a paper form by hand for any new access or change in system permissions, leading to thousands of requests flooding the IT department annually. The paper forms were passed from group to group within the IT department, causing delays if someone was unavailable. This manual process resulted in long processing times, bottlenecks, and an inability to track the status of requests, creating an overflow of inquiries into the IT department without concrete answers.
解决方案
Ultimus' process optimization transformed Zale Corporation's Client Server Access Request process by making request forms electronic and accessible to all 15,000 employees worldwide. Information now flows seamlessly to the appropriate IT personnel during each step of the process without any manual intervention. Bottlenecks are identified immediately, and work is re-routed as needed. Each request can be tracked in real-time through an IT status portal, allowing users to see where their request is in the process and who it is assigned to. The implementation of Ultimus' BPM Suite was smooth and efficient, with Zale Corporation seeing results almost immediately. The cumbersome manual process was completely automated and deployed in less than five months, allowing Zale to focus on their core business and provide their employees with the tools they need to perform their jobs efficiently and effectively every day.

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.
Case Study
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.
